Correlation between Genotype and Phenotype in 69 Chinese Patients with USH2A Mutations: A comparative study of the patients with Usher Syndrome and Nonsyndromic Retinitis Pigmentosa.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:The aim of this study was to analyse 69 Chinese patients with USH2A mutations and to assess the genotype-phenotype correlation. METHODS:All 36 Usher syndrome type IIA patients and 33 nonsyndromic RP (retinitis pigmentosa) patients underwent clinical examinations. Eye examinations included best-corrected visual acuity, slit-lamp biomicroscopy, fundus examination with dilated pupils, fundus fluorescent angiography, visual field test, full-field electroretinography and optic coherence tomography; audiological assessment included pure tone audiometry and hearing thresholds. The molecular diagnosis of genotype combined the single-gene Sanger sequencing and next-generation sequencing. This study is a retrospective study. RESULTS:The mean age of first symptoms with Usher syndrome type IIa and nonsyndromic RP patients was 13.7 versus 29.8 years (ocular phenotypes, p < 0.001); 17.7 versus 29.9 years (nyctalopia, p < 0.001); 44.7 versus 54.8 years (low vision based on VF, p < 0.001); 41.7 versus 54.7 years (low vision based on VA, p < 0.001); and 46.0 versus 56.7 years (legal blindness based on VF, p < 0.001). There was significant difference in variants in the two groups (p < 0.05). Among patients with mutation c.2802T > G (p.Cys934Trp), more (66.7%) presented with normal hearing. All patients (3/3, 100%) with the variant c.8232G > C (p.Trp2744Cys) had hearing loss. Furthermore, we identified 23 novel variants in USH2A. CONCLUSIONS:Patients with Usher syndrome type IIa had an earlier onset of the disease, inferior visual function and presented with more truncating variants, compared with the nonsyndromic RP patients.
