Mandibuloacral Dysplasia Is Caused by a Mutation in LMNA-Encoding Lamin A/C

Abstract: Mandibuloacral dysplasia (MAD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder, characterized by postnatal growth retardation, craniofacial anomalies, skeletal malformations, and mottled cutaneous pigmentation. The LMNA gene encoding two nuclear envelope proteins (lamins A and C [lamin A/C]) maps to chromosome 1q21 and has been associated with five distinct pathologies, including Dunnigan-type familial partial lipodystrophy, a condition that is characterized by subcutaneous fat loss and is invariably associated with in… Show more

“…HEK293 were cultured in D‐MEM plus 10% fetal bovine serum. Skin fibroblasts expressing P4R LMNA from atypical progeria syndrome (APS) (Garg et al, 2009), R527H LMNA from mandibuloacral dysplasia (MADA) (Novelli et al, 2002), G608G LMNA from HGPS (De Sandre Giovannoli et al, 2003; Eriksson et al, 2003; Pellegrini et al, 2015), and cells from Emery‐Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EDMD2) expressing Y259D mutated LMNA (Mattioli et al, 2011) or control fibroblasts were included in this study (Table 1). …”

“…17 At least seven diseases result from mutant LMNA, 18 including some that have lipodystrophy as a clinical feature, such as MAD (MIM 248370) and progeria (MIM 176670). 19 Some LMNA mutations give rise to 'overlap syndromes' characterized by dystrophy in adipose tissue, cardiac myocytes and/or skeletal myocytes. 20 The mechanism(s) by which specific LMNA mutations cause specific tissue involvement and clinical manifestations is unclear.…”

“…The notion that a mutation without a clinically discernable phenotype might, in combination with a second mutation, produce a pathological phenotype is supported by the observations made in kindreds with an arginine-527-histidine (R527H) mutation. R527H heterozygotes were said to be phenotypically "normal", whilst R527H homozygotes develop mandibulo-acral dysplasia [8], a complex phenotype including partial lipodystrophy and insulin resistance. Compound heterozygosity has been reported in one other subject with FPL [5].…”
