ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To explore the genetic etiology for a pedigree affected with progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC).@*METHODS@#Target sequence capture and next generation sequencing (NGS) were applied for the proband. PCR and Sanger sequencing were used to verify the suspected mutation in his sister with similar symptoms and his parents.@*RESULTS@#The proband and his sister manifested after birth with symptoms including jaundice, pruritus and developmental retardation. NGS has identified compound heterozygous mutations of ABCB11 gene, which encodes bile salt export pump protein (BSEP), namely c.2494C>T (p.Arg832Cys) and c.3223C>T (p.Gln1075*), in the proband, which were inherited from his father and mother respectively. His sister carried the same compound mutations.@*CONCLUSION@#Based on the phenotype and genetic testing, the patients were diagnosed as PFIC2 caused by mutation of the ABCB11 gene. The c.3223C>T is a novel nonsense mutation which may cause premature termination of translation. Above results have enriched the spectrum of ABCB11 mutations and provided new evidence for the molecular basis of PFIC, which also facilitated genetic counseling for this pedigree.
