size="100%">&lt;p&gt;ETV6-related thrombocytopenia (ETV6-RT) is an autosomal dominant thrombocytopenia that has been recently identified in a few families and has been suspected to predispose to hematological malignancies. To gain further information on this disorder, we searched for ETV6 mutations in the 130 families with inherited thrombocytopenia of unknown origin from our cohort of 274 consecutive pedigrees with familial thrombocytopenia. We identified 20 ETV6-RT patients from 7 pedigrees. They have 5 different ETV6 variants, including three novel mutations affecting the highly conserved E26 transformation-specific domain. The relative frequency of ETV6-RT resulted 2.6% in the whole case series and 4.6% among the families with known forms of inherited thrombocytopenia. The degree of thrombocytopenia and bleeding tendency of ETV6-RT patients were mild, but 4 subjects developed B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia during childhood, resulting in a significantly increased incidence compared to the general population. Clinical and laboratory findings did not identify any peculiar defects that can be used to suspect this disorder by routine diagnostic workup. However, at variance with most inherited thrombocytopenias, platelet size was not enlarged. In vitro studies revealed that patients megakaryocytes have defective maturation and impaired proplatelet formation. Moreover, ETV6-RT platelets have reduced ability to spread on fibrinogen. Since also the dominant thrombocytopenias due to mutations in RUNX1 and ANKRD26 are characterized by normal platelet size and predispose to hematological malignancies, we suggest that mutation screening of ETV6, RUNX1 and ANKRD26 should be performed in all the subjects with autosomal dominant thrombocytopenia and normal platelet size.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27365488?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Noetzli, Leila</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lo, Richard W</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lee-Sherick, Alisa B</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Callaghan, Michael</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Noris, Patrizia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Savoia, Anna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rajpurkar, Madhvi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jones, Kenneth</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gowan, Katherine</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Balduini, Carlo L</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pecci, Alessandro</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gnan, Chiara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">De Rocco, Daniela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Doubek, Michael</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Li, Ling</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Lu, Lily</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Leung, Richard</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Landolt-Marticorena, Carolina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Hunger, Stephen</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Heller, Paula</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gutierrez-Hartmann, Arthur</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xiayuan, Liang</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pluthero, Fred G</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rowley, Jesse W</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Weyrich, Andrew S</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kahr, Walter H A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Porter, Christopher C</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Di Paola, Jorge</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Germline mutations in ETV6 are associated with thrombocytopenia, red cell macrocytosis and predisposition to lymphoblastic leukemia.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat Genet</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nat.

We identified a family with autosomal dominant thrombocytopenia, high erythrocyte mean corpuscular volume (MCV) and two occurrences of B cell-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Whole-exome sequencing identified a heterozygous single-nucleotide change in ETV6 (ets variant 6), c.641C&gt;T, encoding a p.Pro214Leu substitution in the central domain, segregating with thrombocytopenia and elevated MCV. A screen of 23 families with similar phenotypes identified 2 with ETV6 mutations. One family also had a mutation encoding p.Pro214Leu and one individual with ALL. The other family had a c.1252A&gt;G transition producing a p.Arg418Gly substitution in the DNA-binding domain, with alternative splicing and exon skipping. Functional characterization of these mutations showed aberrant cellular localization of mutant and endogenous ETV6, decreased transcriptional repression and altered megakaryocyte maturation. Our findings underscore a key role for ETV6 in platelet formation and leukemia predisposition.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default"

thrombocytopenia 2 (THC2) was considered an exceedingly rare form of autosomal dominant thrombocytopenia and only 2 families were known. However, we recently identified mutations in the 5'-untranslated region of the ANKRD26 gene in 9 THC2 families. Here we report on 12 additional pedigrees with ANKRD26 mutations, 6 of which are new. Because THC2 affected 21 of the 210 families in our database, it has to be considered one of the less rare forms of inherited thrombocytopenia. Analysis of all 21 families with ANKRD26 mutations identified to date revealed that thrombocytopenia and bleeding tendency were usually mild. Nearly all patients had no platelet macrocytosis, and this characteristic distinguishes THC2 from most other forms of inherited thrombocytopenia. In the majority of cases, platelets were deficient in glycoprotein Ia and α-granules, whereas in vitro platelet aggregation was normal. Bone marrow examination and serum thrombopoietin levels suggested that thrombocytopenia was derived from dysmegakaryopoiesis. Unexplained high values of hemoglobin and leukocytes were observed in a few cases. An unexpected finding that warrants further investigation was a high incidence of acute leukemia. Given the scarcity of distinctive characteristics, the ANKRD26-related thrombocytopenia has to be taken into consideration in the differential diagnosis of isolated thrombocytopenias.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">24</style></issue><custom1><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21467542?dopt=Abstract</style></custom1></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pippucci, Tommaso</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Savoia, Anna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Perrotta, Silverio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pujol-Moix, Núria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Noris, Patrizia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Castegnaro, Giovanni</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pecci, Alessandro</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gnan, Chiara</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Punzo, Francesca</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Marconi, Caterina</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gherardi, Samuele</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Loffredo, Giuseppe</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">De Rocco, Daniela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Scianguetta, Saverio</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Barozzi, Serena</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Magini, Pamela</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bozzi, Valeria</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dezzani, Luca</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Di Stazio, Mariateresa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ferraro, Marcella</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Perini, Giovanni</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Seri, Marco</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Balduini, Carlo L</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Mutations in the 5' UTR of ANKRD26, the ankirin repeat domain 26 gene, cause an autosomal-dominant form of inherited thrombocytopenia, THC2.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Am J Hum Genet</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Am.

Here, we show that ANKRD26, another gene within the THC2 locus, and neither MASTL nor ACBD5, is mutated in eight unrelated families. ANKRD26 was also found to be mutated in the family previously reported to have an ACBD5 mutation. We identified six different ANKRD26 mutations, which were clustered in a highly conserved 19 bp sequence located in the 5' untranslated region. Mutations were not detected in 500 controls and are absent from the 1000 Genomes database. Available data from an animal model and Dr. Watson's genome give evidence against haploinsufficiency as the pathogenetic mechanism for ANKRD26-mediated thrombocytopenia. The luciferase reporter assay suggests that these 5' UTR mutations might enhance ANKRD26 expression. ANKRD26 is the ancestor of a family of primate-specific genes termed POTE, which have been recently identified as a family of proapoptotic proteins. Dysregulation of apoptosis might therefore be the pathogenetic mechanism, as demonstrated for another thrombocytopenia, THC4.
