International Registry of Patients Carrying TGFBR1 or TGFBR2 Mutations: Results of the MAC (Montalcino Aortic Consortium).

چکیده
BACKGROUND The natural history of aortic diseases in patients with TGFBR1 or TGFBR2 mutations reported by different investigators has varied greatly. In particular, the current recommendations for the timing of surgical repair of the aortic root aneurysms may be overly aggressive. METHODS AND RESULTS The Montalcino Aortic Consortium, which includes 15 centers worldwide that specialize in heritable thoracic aortic diseases, was used to gather data on 441 patients from 228 families, with 176 cases harboring a mutation in TGBR1 and 265 in TGFBR2. Patients harboring a TGFBR1 mutation have similar survival rates (80% survival at 60 years), aortic risk (23% aortic dissection and 18% preventive aortic surgery), and prevalence of extra-aortic features (29% hypertelorism, 53% cervical arterial tortuosity, and 27% wide scars) when compared with patients harboring a TGFBR2 mutation. However, TGFBR1 males had a greater aortic risk than females, whereas TGFBR2 males and females had a similar aortic risk. Additionally, aortic root diameter prior to or at the time of type A aortic dissection tended to be smaller in patients carrying a TGFBR2 mutation and was ≤45 mm in 6 women with TGFBR2 mutations, presenting with marked systemic features and low body surface area. Aortic dissection was observed in 1.6% of pregnancies. CONCLUSIONS Patients with TGFBR1 or TGFBR2 mutations show the same prevalence of systemic features and the same global survival. Preventive aortic surgery at a diameter of 45 mm, lowered toward 40 in females with low body surface area, TGFBR2 mutation, and severe extra-aortic features may be considered.

Identification of 23 TGFBR2 and 6 TGFBR1 gene mutations and genotype-phenotype investigations in 457 patients with Marfan syndrome type I and II, Loeys-Dietz syndrome and related disorders.
TGFBR1 and TGFBR2 gene mutations have been associated with Marfan syndrome types 1 and 2, Loeys-Dietz syndrome and isolated familial thoracic aortic aneurysms or dissection. In order to investigate the molecular and clinical spectrum of TGFBR2 mutations we screened the gene in 457 probands suspected of being affected with Marfan syndrome or related disorders that had been referred to our labora...

متن کاملSmooth muscle cell-specific Tgfbr1 deficiency promotes aortic aneurysm formation by stimulating multiple signaling events
Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β signaling disorder has emerged as a common molecular signature for aortic aneurysm development. The timing of postnatal maturation plays a key role in dictating the biological outcome of TGF-β signaling disorders in the aortic wall. In this study, we investigated the impact of deficiency of TGFβ receptors on the structural homeostasis of mature aortas. We used...
متن کاملA sporadic case of Loeys-Dietz syndrome type I with two novel mutations of the TGFBR2 gene
A recently recognized connective tissue disorder, Loeys-Dietz syndrome (LDS) is a genetic aortic aneurysm syndrome caused by mutations in the transforming growth factor-receptor type I or II gene (TGFBR1 or TGFBR2). They have distinctive phenotypic abnormalities including widely spaced eyes (hypertelorism), bifid uvula or cleft palate, and arterial tortuosity with aortic aneurysm or dissection ...
