A novel homozygous missense mutation in PNPLA2 in a patient manifesting primary triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy
Primary triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy (P-TGCV), caused by a rare genetic mutation in PNPLA2 encoding adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), exhibits severe cardiomyocyte steatosis and heart failure. Here, we report the case of a 51-year-old man with P-TGCV homozygous for a novel PNPLA2 mut...

Sumario: | Primary triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy (P-TGCV), caused by a rare genetic mutation in PNPLA2 encoding adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), exhibits severe cardiomyocyte steatosis and heart failure. Here, we report the case of a 51-year-old man with P-TGCV homozygous for a novel PNPLA2 mutation (c.446C > G, P149R) in the catalytic domain of ATGL. Analyses of endomyocardial biopsy specimens and in vitro expression experiments showed mutant protein expression with conserved lipid binding, but reduced lipolytic activity, indicating mutation pathogenicity. |
