ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
To determine the detection rate of IGF-1 variants in a clinical population and assess their implications.METHODS:
IGF-1 variants were detected based on their predicted mass-to-charge ratios. Most variants were distinguished by their isotopic distribution and relative retention times. A67T and A70T were distinguished with MS/MS. Patient specimens with a detected variant were de-identified for DNA sequencing to confirm the polymorphism.RESULTS:
Of the 243,808 patients screened, 1,099 patients containing IGF-1 variants were identified (0.45â¯%, or 4,508 occurrences per million). Seven patients were identified as homozygous or double heterozygous. Majority of variants (98â¯%) had amino acid substitutions located at the C-terminus (A62T, P66A, A67S, A67V, A67T, A70T). Isobaric variants A38V and A67V were detected more frequently in children than in adults. Six previously unreported variants were identified Y31H, S33P, T41I, R50Q, R56K, and A62T. Compared with the overall population, z-score distribution of patients with IGF-1 variants was shifted toward negative levels (median z-score -1.4); however, it resembled the overall population when corrected for heterozygosity. Chromatographic peak area of some variants differed from that of the WT IGF-1 present in the same patient.CONCLUSIONS:
In the IGF-1 test reports by LC-MS, the concentrations only account for half the total IGF-1 for patients with heterozygous IGF-1 variants. An IGF-1 variant may change the binding to its receptor and/or its binding proteins, affecting its activity and half-life in circulation. Variants located in or close to the C-domain may be pathogenic. Cross-species sequence comparison indicates that A38V and A70T may have some degree of pathogenicity.Palavras-chave
