Abstract

Mucopolysaccharidosis type VI (MPS VI) is a rare disease caused by the mutation of ARSB with prevalence range from 1/5,000 in northeast Brazil to 1/2,057,529 births in Czech Republic. In Asia, there is only one published figure in Taiwan of about 1/833,000 births. The exact prevalence in the Korean population is unknown, but we estimated the incidence of MPS VI is about 0.03/100,000 live births. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with recombinant human Arylsulfatase B (rhASB) is a modality for the treatment of MPS VI that reduces the excretion of urine glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and improves joint motion, pulmonary function, and endurance. We presented the clinical features, molecular analysis and outcome of ERT in three Korean MPS VI patients. All patients had the typical characteristic clinical features of MPS IV. Short stature, dysostosis multiplex, corneal opacity and valvular heart disease were found at first presentation, while restrictive lung disease and carpal tunnel syndrome developed later in all patients. Molecular analysis demonstrated novel missense and nonsense mutation in the patients, including p.Ile 67Ser, p.Gly328Arg, $p.Arg191^*$, p.Asp352Asn, and p.Gly17Asp. After ERT, urine GAG was decreased in all patients. Skeletal involvement, corneal opacity, heart valve abnormalities and pulmonary function were not improved with ERT, but it had a better outcome on regarding joint motion and endurance. One patient underwent allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) prior to ERT, but their clinical response was not improved much after BMT. This study demonstrates clinical phenotypes and molecular analysis of the severe form of MPS VI in Korean patients.

뮤코다당증 6형(Mucopolysaccharidosis type VI)은 ARSB 유전자의 변이로 인하여 dermatan sulfate 대사에 관여하는 arylsulfatase B 효소의 결핍으로 유발되는 상염색체 열성 리소좀 축적 질환이다. 본 연구는 국내에서 뮤코다당증 6형으로 진단된 3명의 환자를 대상으로 하였다 3명의 환자는 최초 진단 시 뮤코다당증 6형의 특징적인 증상인 저신장, 다발성 골형성 부전, 심장 판막 이상 및 각막 혼탁을 보였으며 이후 손목 터널 증후군 및 제한성 폐질환의 양상을 보였다. 모든 환자에서 소변의 GAG (glycosaminoglycan)는 증가되어 있었으며 피부 섬유아세포 또는 백혈구에서 측정한 arylsulfatase B는 모두 감소되어 있었고 중합효소 연쇄반응-염기서열분석법에 의한 ARSB 유전자 검사에서는 c.200T>G (p.Ile67Ser), c.982G>A (p.Gly328Arg), c.571C>T (p.Arg191*), c.1054G>A (p.Asp352Asn)의 이형접합체 돌연변이 및 c.512G>A (p.Gly171Asp) 동형접합체 돌연변이를 발견할 수 있었다. recombinant human Arylsulfatase B (rhASB)를 통한 효소 대체 치료는 2008년부터 국내에서도 허가되었으며 효소대체치료 시행 후 소변 GAG (glyco-saminoglycan)는 감소하였으며 관절 운동 및 지구력은 향상되었다. 그러나 관절 침범 및 각막 혼탁, 심장 및 폐 침범 소견은 호전되지 않았다. 본 연구는 뮤코다당증 6형의 특징적인 증상을 보였으며 생화학적 검사 및 분자유전학적 검사를 통해 뮤코다당증 6형으로 확진된 3명의 환자를 대상으로 시행한 효소대체치료의 효과를 보고하는 바이다.
