No Evidence for Linkage between the Hereditary Angiooedema Clinical Phenotype and the BDKR1, BDKR2, ACE or MBL2 gene

Abstract: Hereditary angiooedema (HAE) is a life‐threatening disease with poor clinical phenotype correlation with its causal mutation in the C1 inhibitor (SERPING1) gene. It is characterized by substantial symptom variability even in affected members of the same family. Therefore, it is likely that genetic factors outside the SERPING1 gene have an influence on disease manifestation. In this study, functional polymorphisms in genes with a possible disease‐modifying effect, B1 and B2 bradykinin receptors (BDKR1, BDKR2), … Show more

“…In addition, the first attacks occurred later in the FXII‐HAE group than the C1Inh‐HAE, with symptoms developing after aged 12 in 82.5% of FXII‐HAE patients (Table. S1) and 62% of those with C1Inh‐HAE . Consequently, these considerations required the severity scaling of Freiberger et al.…”

“…In addition, we showed that C1 inhibitor function levels strongly correlated with disease severity determined by a well-defined symptom severity score (Fig. 1) [13]. C1 inhibitor function has also been reported to be positively correlated with another disease severity index [24].…”

“…None of the patients were on angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor treatment or estrogen-based therapy. The symptom severity was assessed by a well-defined scoring system in the pretreatment period [13]. This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Ege University (B.30.2.EGE.0.20.05.00/OY/1128/ 456) and was conducted according to the principles of good clinical practice and adhered strictly to the ethical standards outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki [14].…”

“…The results presented shed more light on the interface between innate and adaptive immunity in the context of C1-INH deficiency and question the role of local C1-INH synthesis by PBMCs in HAE patients. Effectively, not the PBMCs synthesis of C1-INH mRNA, nor that of other molecules classically implicated in the pathogenesis of HAE like Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE), Bradykinin Receptors 1 and 2, (BDKR1, BDKR2) or Aminopeptidase P (APP) showed any statistical effect on the frequency of HAE attacks [18,19]. In agreement with that, instead of a common disease-associated signature, PBMCs from the three families analyzed exhibit different expression patterns linked to their symptoms.…”
