Divergent Metabolic Phenotype between Two Sisters with Congenital Generalized Lipodystrophy Due to Double AGPAT2 Homozygous Mutations. A Clinical, Genetic and In Silico Study
Congenital generalized lipodystrophy (CGL) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by extreme reduction of white adipose tissue (WAT) mass. CGL type 1 is the most frequent form and is caused by mutations in AGPAT2. Genetic and clinical studies were performed in two affected sisters of a Chilean family. These patients have notoriously dissimilar metabolic abnormalities that correlat...
متن کاملCongenital Generalized Lipodystrophy in a Youth Presented with Sclerotic and Lytic Bone Lesions; a Family with AGPAT2 Mutation
BackgroundCongenital generalized lipodystrophy (CGL) is a rare disease. It is associated with near total fat loss, severe insulin resistance and hypoleptinemia leading to metabolic derangements.Case PresentationWe report a 25- year- old female with 1-Acylglycerol-3-phosphate-O-acyltransferase 2 (APGAT2) mutation, and both sclerotic and lytic bone lesions together for the first time. Bone cyst i...
متن کاملCongenital Generalized Lipodystrophy: A Multisystemic Metabolic Disorder
Loss of fatty tissue occurring in a partial or generalized distribution is called as lipodystrophy. Generalized lipodystrophy may be congenital or acquired in nature. Congenital generalized lipodystrophy or Berardinelli-Seip syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive multisystem disorder characterized by the near absence of subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue from birth or early infancy with s...
متن کاملAlterations in Lipid Signaling Underlie Lipodystrophy Secondary to AGPAT2 Mutations
Congenital generalized lipodystrophy (CGL), secondary to AGPAT2 mutation is characterized by the absence of adipocytes and development of severe insulin resistance. In the current study, we investigated the adipogenic defect associated with AGPAT2 mutations. Adipogenesis was studied in muscle-derived multipotent cells (MDMCs) isolated from vastus lateralis biopsies obtained from controls and su...
