Abstract：
:The purpose of this study was to report on two novel missense mutations of the cornea-specific TGFBI gene in one single patient and in two generations of a family diagnosed with unique corneal dystrophy (CD) phenotypes. Ophthalmologic examination, in several cases ocular coherence tomography of the anterior segment (AS-OCT), was performed in 21 affected patients and in two unaffected members of one affected family. Coding regions of the TGFBI gene were direct sequenced in all 23 individuals. The two novel mutations were verified by RFLP analysis. A novel mutation c.1640T > G (p.Phe574Cys) in exon 12 of the TGFBI gene was detected in one single patient with recurrent granular intrastromal deposits comparable to a type of granular dystrophy. In AS-OCT, the deposit pattern reached up to the Descemet's layer. A further novel mutation c.393G > T(p.Glu131Asp) in exon 4 of the TGFBI gene was detected in all three affected members of one family with superficial cloud- and honeycomb-like opacifications, comparable to a Schnyder corneal dystrophy. Two unaffected members did not carry this alteration. The two identified novel mutations add other two phenotypes in patients suffering from TGFBI-linked CD to those reported so far. In one case, clinical finding indicates a Schnyder corneal dystrophy-like phenotype due to its superficial crystalline shape, and in the second one, granular deposits who reach Descemet's layer indicate a granular CD subtype. Molecular genetic analysis may help to distinguish those subtypes and to decide for specific treatment in time of a wide variation of corneal surgical techniques.
