Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: A sizeable proportion of pathogenic genetic variants identified in young children tested for congenital differences are associated with neurodevelopmental psychiatric disorders (NPD). In this growing group, a genetic diagnosis often precedes the emergence of diagnosable developmental concerns. Here, we describe DAGSY (Developmental Assessment of Genetically Susceptible Youth), a novel interdisciplinary 'genetic-diagnosis-first' clinic integrating psychiatric, psychological and genetic expertise, and report our first observations and feedback from families and referring clinicians. METHODS: We retrieved data on referral sources and indications, genetic and NPD diagnoses and recommendations for children seen at DAGSY between 2018 and 2022. Through a survey, we obtained feedback from twenty families and eleven referring clinicians. RESULTS: 159 children (mean age 10.2 years, 57.2% males) completed an interdisciplinary (psychiatry, psychology, genetic counselling) DAGSY assessment during this period. Of these, 69.8% had a pathogenic microdeletion or microduplication, 21.5% a sequence-level variant, 4.4% a chromosomal disorder, and 4.4% a variant of unknown significance with emerging evidence of pathogenicity. One in four children did not have a prior NPD diagnosis, and referral to DAGSY was motivated by their genetic vulnerability alone. Following assessment, 76.7% received at least one new NPD diagnosis, most frequently intellectual disability (24.5%), anxiety (20.7%), autism spectrum (18.9%) and specific learning (16.4%) disorder. Both families and clinicians responding to our survey expressed satisfaction, but also highlighted some areas for potential improvement. CONCLUSIONS: DAGSY addresses an unmet clinical need for children identified with genetic variants that confer increased vulnerability for NPD and provides a crucial platform for research in this area. DAGSY can serve as a model for interdisciplinary clinics integrating child psychiatry, psychology and genetics, addressing both clinical and research needs for this emerging population.

Association between rare, genetic variants linked to autism and ultrasonography fetal anomalies in children with autism spectrum disorder / Ohad REGEV in Journal of Neurodevelopmental Disorders, 16 (2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Neurodevelopmental Disorders > 16 (2024) Titre : Association between rare, genetic variants linked to autism and ultrasonography fetal anomalies in children with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Ohad REGEV, Auteur ; Apurba SHIL, Auteur ; Tal BRONSHTEIN, Auteur ; Amnon HADAR, Auteur ; Gal MEIRI, Auteur ; Dikla ZIGDON, Auteur ; Analya MICHAELOVSKI, Auteur ; Reli HERSHKOVITZ, Auteur ; Idan MENASHE, Auteur Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Humans  Autism Spectrum Disorder/genetics/diagnostic imaging  Female  Male  Ultrasonography, Prenatal  Child  Exome Sequencing  Pregnancy  Cross-Sectional Studies  Child, Preschool  Genetic Variation  Genetic Predisposition to Disease  Autism spectrum disorder  Congenital anomalies  Fetal development  Genetic mutations  Prenatal ultrasound  Ultrasonography fetal anomalies  Whole-exome sequencing Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: Recent evidence suggests that certain fetal anomalies detected upon prenatal ultrasound screenings are associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to identify genetic variants associated with fetal ultrasound anomalies (UFAs) in children with ASD. METHODS: The study included all children with ASD who are registered in the database of the Azrieli National Center of Autism and Neurodevelopment and for whom both prenatal ultrasound and whole exome sequencing (WES) data were available. We applied our in-house integrative bioinformatics pipeline, AutScore, to these WES data to prioritize rare, gene-disrupting variants (GDVs) probably contributing to ASD susceptibily. Univariate statistics and multivariable regression were used to assess the associations between UFAs and GDVs identified in these children. RESULTS: The study sample comprised 126 children, of whom 43 (34.1%) had at least one UFA detected in the prenatal ultrasound scan. A total of 87 candidate ASD genetic variants were detected in 60 children, with 24 (40%) children carrying multiple variants. Children with UFAs were more likely to have loss-of-function (LoF) mutations (aOR = 2.55, 95%CI: 1.13-5.80). This association was particularly noticeable when children with structural anomalies or children with UFAs in their head and brain scans were compared to children without UFAs (any mutation: aOR = 8.28, 95%CI: 2.29-30.01; LoF: aOR = 5.72, 95%CI: 2.08-15.71 and any mutation: aOR = 6.39, 95%CI: 1.34-30.47; LoF: aOR = 4.50, 95%CI: 1.32-15.35, respectively). GDVs associated with UFAs were enriched in genes highly expressed across all tissues (aOR = 2.76, 95%CI: 1.14-6.68). There was a weak, but significant, correlation between the number of mutations and the number of abnormalities detected in the same children (r = 0.21, P = 0.016). CONCLUSIONS: The results provide valuable insights into the potential genetic basis of prenatal organogenesis abnormalities associated with ASD and shed light on the complex interplay between genetic factors and fetal development.

Forty-nine subjects diagnosed with non-syndromic ASD were analyzed by microarray comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) analysis, whole-exome sequencing (WES) analysis, and panel sequencing analysis for 52 common causative genes of ASD to detect inherited rare variants. Genetic analysis by microarray CGH and WES analyses showed conclusive results in about 10% of patients, however, many inherited variants detected by panel sequencing analysis were difficult to interpret and apply in clinical practice in the majority of patients. Further improvement of interpretation of many variants detected would be necessary for combined genetic tests to be used in clinical settings.

We have explored the access to genetic services and perception of genetics and recurrence risk in parents of autistic children in Spain. Despite the high interest in genetics, our results show a remarkable underutilization of genetic services, with only 30% of families having visited a genetic service and 13% of patients having undergone the recommended genetic test. This poor service provision influenced recurrence risk perception and had a great impact on family planning. The National Health System should ensure their access to genetic services allowing them to take informed decisions with precise information.

A systematic variant annotation approach for ranking genes associated with autism spectrum disorders / Eric LARSEN in Molecular Autism, 7 (2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inMolecular Autism > 7 (2016) . - 44p. Titre : A systematic variant annotation approach for ranking genes associated with autism spectrum disorders Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Eric LARSEN, Auteur ; Idan MENASHE, Auteur ; Mark N. ZIATS, Auteur ; Wayne PEREANU, Auteur ; Alan PACKER, Auteur ; Sharmila BANERJEE-BASU, Auteur Article en page(s) : 44p. Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Algorithms  Autism Spectrum Disorder/genetics/physiopathology  DNA-Binding Proteins/genetics  Databases, Genetic  Datasets as Topic  Gene Expression  Genetic Predisposition to Disease  Genetic Variation  Homeodomain Proteins/genetics  Humans  Molecular Sequence Annotation  Nerve Tissue Proteins/genetics  Research Design  Transcription Factors/genetics  Autistic disorder  Autosomal recessive  Common variants  Genetic variation  Rare variants Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: The search for genetic factors underlying autism spectrum disorders (ASD) has led to the identification of hundreds of genes containing thousands of variants that differ in mode of inheritance, effect size, frequency, and function. A major challenge involves assessing the collective evidence in an unbiased, systematic manner for their functional relevance. METHODS: Here, we describe a scoring algorithm for prioritization of candidate genes based on the cumulative strength of evidence for each ASD-associated variant cataloged in AutDB (also known as SFARI Gene). We retrieved data from 889 publications to generate a dataset of 2187 rare and 711 common variants distributed across 461 genes implicated in ASD. Each individual variant was manually annotated with multiple attributes extracted from the original report, followed by score assignment using a set of standardized parameters yielding a single score for each gene. RESULTS: There was a wide variation in scores; SHANK3, CHD8, and ADNP had distinctly higher scores than all other genes in the dataset. Our gene scores were significantly correlated with other recently published rankings of ASD genes (RSpearman = 0.40-0.63; p< 0.0001), providing support for our scoring algorithm. CONCLUSIONS: This new resource, which is freely available, for the first time aggregates on one-platform variants identified from various study types (simplex, multiplex, multigenerational, and consanguineous families), from both common and rare variants, and also incorporates their putative functional consequences to arrive at a genetically and biologically driven ranking scheme. This work represents a major step in moving from simply cataloging autism variants to using data-driven approaches to gain insight into their significance.
