PAX6 analysis of two sporadic patients from southern China with classic aniridia.
[aniridia]
To
investigate
the
paired
box
6
(
PAX
6
)
gene
in
two
sporadic
patients
from
southern
China
presenting
with
classic
aniridia
.
The
two
sporadic
patients
underwent
complete
physical
and
ophthalmic
examinations
.
Genomic
DNA
was
extracted
from
the
leukocytes
of
the
peripheral
blood
collected
from
the
families
of
the
two
sporadic
patients
and
100
unrelated
control
subjects
from
the
same
population
.
Exons
4
-
13
of
PAX
6
were
amplified
by
polymerase
chain
reaction
(
PCR
)
and
sequenced
directly
.
The
ophthalmic
examinations
included
best-corrected
visual
acuity
,
slit-lamp
examination
,
fundus
examination
,
optical
coherence
tomography
,
and
Pentacam
and
Goldmann
perimetry
.
The
two
patients
were
affected
with
aniridia
accompanied
by
nystagmus
.
A
heterozygous
PAX
6
frameshift
mutation
in
exon

identified
in
sporadic
patient
1
and
not
in
any
of
the
unaffected
family
members
and
normal

.
One

was
detected
in
sporadic
patient
2
.
The
frameshift
mutation
we
identified
has
not
previously
been
reported
either
in
China
or
abroad
.
Although
PAX
6
mutations
and
polymorphisms
have
been
reported
in
various
ethnic
groups
,
we
report
,
for
the
first
time
,
the
identification
of
one
new
PAX
6
mutation
in
Chinese
aniridia
patient
.
