RESUMEN

Multiple sulfatase deficiency (MSD) is an ultra-rare, inherited lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in the gene sulfatase modifying factor 1 (SUMF1). MSD is characterized by the functional deficiency of all sulfatase enzymes, leading to the storage of sulfated substrates including glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), sulfolipids, and steroid sulfates. Patients with MSD experience severe neurological impairment, hearing loss, organomegaly, corneal clouding, cardiac valve disease, dysostosis multiplex, contractures, and ichthyosis. Here, we generated a novel human model of MSD by reprogramming patient peripheral blood mononuclear cells to establish an MSD induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line (SUMF1 p.A279V). We also generated an isogenic control iPSC line by correcting the pathogenic variant with CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing. We successfully differentiated these iPSC lines into neural progenitor cells (NPCs) and NGN2-induced neurons (NGN2-iN) to model the neuropathology of MSD. Mature neuronal cells exhibited decreased SUMF1 gene expression, increased lysosomal stress, impaired neurite outgrowth and maturation, reduced sulfatase activities, and GAG accumulation. Interestingly, MSD iPSCs and NPCs did not exhibit as severe of phenotypes, suggesting that as neurons differentiate and mature, they become more vulnerable to loss of SUMF1. In summary, we demonstrate that this human iPSC-derived neuronal model recapitulates the cellular and biochemical features of MSD. These cell models can be used as tools to further elucidate the mechanisms of MSD pathology and for the development of therapeutics.

RESUMEN

Pathogenic variants in USP9X, on X chromosome, have been implicated in syndromic intellectual disability (ID) in both males and females with distinct craniofacial features. We report a truncating variant, c.885_889delAAAAG, p.(Lys296Serfs*4), in the USP9X gene with incomplete penetrance in two nontwin female siblings with phenotypic resemblance to female-specific syndromic ID (MIM 300969, also known as MRX99F). To investigate the possible genetic etiology of the reduced penetrance, X-inactivation, RNA-Seq, and full quad exome analyses were attempted, but failed to identify a promising candidate modifier. While the penetrance of pathogenic variants in USP9X in female appears to be high (95%) and the variants frequently occur de novo, incomplete penetrance should be considered.
