Clinical Spectrum of LMNA-Associated Type 2 Familial Partial Lipodystrophy: A Systematic Review. Cells 2023; 12:cells12050725. [PMID: 36899861 PMCID: PMC10000975 DOI: 10.3390/cells12050725] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2023] [Revised: 02/16/2023] [Accepted: 02/17/2023] [Indexed: 03/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Type 2 familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD2) is a laminopathic lipodystrophy due to pathogenic variants in the LMNA gene. Its rarity implies that it is not well-known. The aim of this review was to explore the published data regarding the clinical characterisation of this syndrome in order to better describe FPLD2. For this purpose, a systematic review through a search on PubMed until December 2022 was conducted and the references of the retrieved articles were also screened. A total of 113 articles were included. FPLD2 is characterised by the loss of fat starting around puberty in women, affecting limbs and trunk, and its accumulation in the face, neck and abdominal viscera. This adipose tissue dysfunction conditions the development of metabolic complications associated with insulin resistance, such as diabetes, dyslipidaemia, fatty liver disease, cardiovascular disease, and reproductive disorders. However, a great degree of phenotypical variability has been described. Therapeutic approaches are directed towards the associated comorbidities, and recent treatment modalities have been explored. A comprehensive comparison between FPLD2 and other FPLD subtypes can also be found in the present review. This review aimed to contribute towards augmenting knowledge of the natural history of FPLD2 by bringing together the main clinical research in this field.

Abstract
Dunnigan syndrome, or Familial Partial Lipodystrophy type 2 (FPLD2; ORPHA 2348), is a rare autosomal dominant disorder due to pathogenic variants of the LMNA gene. The objective of the French National Diagnosis and Care Protocol (PNDS; Protocole National de Diagnostic et de Soins), is to provide health professionals with a guide to optimal management and care of patients with FPLD2, based on a critical literature review and multidisciplinary expert consensus. The PNDS, written by members of the French National Reference Center for Rare Diseases of Insulin Secretion and Insulin Sensitivity (PRISIS), is available on the French Health Authority website (in French). Dunnigan syndrome is characterized by a partial atrophy of the subcutaneous adipose tissue and by an insulin resistance syndrome, associated with a risk of metabolic, cardiovascular and muscular complications. Its prevalence, assessed at 1/100.000 in Europe, is probably considerably underestimated. Thorough clinical examination is key to diagnosis. Biochemical testing frequently shows hyperinsulinemia, abnormal glucose tolerance and hypertriglyceridemia. Elevated hepatic transaminases (hepatic steatosis) and creatine phosphokinase, and hyperandrogenism in women, are common. Molecular analysis of the LMNA gene confirms diagnosis and allows for family investigations. Regular screening and multidisciplinary monitoring of the associated complications are necessary. Diabetes frequently develops from puberty onwards. Hypertriglyceridemia may lead to acute pancreatitis. Early atherosclerosis and cardiomyopathy should be monitored. In women, polycystic ovary syndrome is common. Overall, the management of patients with Dunnigan syndrome requires the collaboration of several health care providers. The attending physician, in conjunction with the national care network, will ensure that the patient receives optimal care through regular follow-up and screening. The various elements of this PNDS are described to provide such a support.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Lipodystrophies are a group of rare, heterogeneous disorders characterized by a lack or maldistribution of adipose tissue. Treatment focusses on the management of complications, including hypertriglyceridemia, which can be severe. Patients are predisposed to early atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and acute pancreatitis. This review summarizes the recent advances in the treatment of lipodystrophies, with a particular focus on the treatment of hypertriglyceridemia in familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD). RECENT FINDINGS Treatment of dyslipidemia in FPLD requires management of secondary exacerbating factors, particularly insulin resistance and diabetes, together with modification of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk factors. In addition, specific lipid-lowering therapies are usually needed, starting with statins and fibrates. Leptin therapy improves triglycerides. Several emerging treatments for hypertriglyceridemia include apo C-III antagonists (volanesorsen, AKCEA-APOCIII-LRx and ARO-APOC3) and angiopoietin-like 3 antagonists (evinacumab, vupanorsen and ARO-ANG3); efficacy observed in clinical trials of these agents in nonlipodystrophic patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia suggests that they may also be helpful in lipodystrophy. SUMMARY Emerging therapies for dyslipidemia show promise in advancing the care of patients with lipodystrophy. However, these treatments are not yet approved for use in lipodystrophy. Further study of their efficacy and safety in this patient population is needed.

Abstract
Lipodystrophies are a heterogeneous group of rare conditions characterised by the loss of adipose tissue. The most common forms are the familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD) syndromes, which include a set of disorders, usually autosomal dominant, due to different pathogenetic mechanisms leading to improper fat distribution (loss of fat in the limbs and gluteal region and variable regional fat accumulation). Affected patients are prone to suffering serious morbidity via the development of metabolic complications associated to insulin resistance and an inability to properly store lipids. Although no well-defined diagnostic criteria have been established for lipodystrophy, there are certain clues related to medical history, physical examination and body composition evaluation that may suggest FPLD prior to confirmatory genetic analysis. Its treatment must be fundamentally oriented towards the control of the metabolic abnormalities. In this sense, metreleptin therapy, the newer classes of hypoglycaemic agents and other investigational drugs are showing promising results. This review aims to summarise the current knowledge of FPLD syndromes and to describe their clinical and molecular picture, diagnostic approaches and recent treatment modalities.

Abstract
Lipodystrophic syndromes (LS) constitute a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by a loss of adipose tissue. These syndromes are usually associated with metabolic complications, which are determinant for morbidity and mortality. The classical forms of LS include partial, generalized, and progeroid lipodystrophies. They are usually due to defects in proteins playing a key role in adipogenesis and adipocyte functions. More recently, systemic disorders combining lipodystrophy and multiple organ dysfunction have been described, including autoinflammatory syndromes, mitochondrial disorders, as well as other complex entities. To date, more than thirty genes have been implicated in the monogenic forms of LS, but the majority of them remain genetically-unexplained. The associated pathophysiological mechanisms also remain to be clarified in many instances. Next generation sequencing-based approaches allow simultaneous testing of multiple genes and have become crucial to speed up the identification of new disease-causing genes. The challenge for geneticists is now the interpretation of the amount of available genetic data, generated especially by exome and whole-genome sequencing. International recommendations on the interpretation and classification of variants have been set up and are regularly reassessed. Very close collaboration between geneticists, clinicians, and researchers will be necessary to make rapid progress in understanding the molecular and cellular basis of these diseases, and to promote personalized medicine.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES LMNA variants have been previously associated with cardiac abnormalities independent of lipodystrophy. We aimed to assess cardiac impact of familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD) to understand the role of laminopathy in cardiac manifestations. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. METHODS Clinical data from 122 patients (age range: 13-77, 101 females) with FPLD were analysed. Mature human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) from a patient with an LMNA variant were studied as proof-of-concept for future studies. RESULTS Subjects with LMNA variants had a higher prevalence of overall cardiac events than others. The likelihood of having an arrhythmia was significantly higher in patients with LMNA variants (OR: 3.77, 95% CI: 1.45-9.83). These patients were at higher risk for atrial fibrillation or flutter (OR: 5.78, 95% CI: 1.04-32.16). The time to the first arrhythmia was significantly shorter in the LMNA group, with a higher HR of 3.52 (95% CI: 1.34-9.27). Non-codon 482 LMNA variants were more likely to be associated with cardiac events (vs. 482 LMNA: OR: 4.74, 95% CI: 1.41-15.98 for arrhythmia; OR: 17.67, 95% CI: 2.45-127.68 for atrial fibrillation or flutter; OR: 5.71, 95% CI: 1.37-23.76 for conduction disease). LMNA mutant hiPSC-CMs showed a higher frequency of spontaneous activity and shorter action potential duration. Functional syncytia of hiPSC-CMs displayed several rhythm alterations such as early afterdepolarizations, spontaneous quiescence and spontaneous tachyarrhythmia, and significantly slower recovery in chronotropic changes induced by isoproterenol exposure. CONCLUSIONS Our results highlight the need for vigilant cardiac monitoring in FPLD, especially in patients with LMNA variants who have an increased risk of developing cardiac arrhythmias. In addition, hiPSC-CMs can be studied to understand the basic mechanisms for the arrhythmias in patients with lipodystrophy to understand the impact of specific mutations.

Unraveling LMNA Mutations in Metabolic Syndrome: Cellular Phenotype and Clinical Pitfalls. Cells 2020; 9:cells9020310.

Abstract
This study details the clinical and cellular phenotypes associated with two missense heterozygous mutations in LMNA, c.1745G>T p.(Arg582Leu), and c.1892G>A p.(Gly631Asp), in two patients with early onset of diabetes mellitus, hypertriglyceridemia and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. In these two patients, subcutaneous adipose tissue was persistent, at least on the abdomen, and the serum leptin level remained in the normal range. Cellular studies showed elevated nuclear anomalies, an accelerated senescence rate and a decrease of replication capacity in patient cells. In cellular models, the overexpression of mutated prelamin A phenocopied misshapen nuclei, while the partial reduction of lamin A expression in patient cells significantly improved nuclear morphology. Altogether, these results suggest a link between lamin A mutant expression and senescence associated phenotypes. Transcriptome analysis of the whole subcutaneous adipose tissue from the two patients and three controls, paired for age and sex using RNA sequencing, showed the up regulation of genes implicated in immunity and the down regulation of genes involved in development and cell differentiation in patient adipose tissue. Therefore, our results suggest that some mutations in LMNA are associated with severe metabolic phenotypes without subcutaneous lipoatrophy, and are associated with nuclear misshaping.

Abstract
Lipodystrophic syndromes are acquired or genetic rare diseases, characterised by a generalised or partial lack of adipose tissue leading to metabolic alterations linked to strong insulin resistance. They encompass a variety of clinical entities due to primary defects in adipose differentiation, in the structure and/or regulation of the adipocyte lipid droplet, or due to immune-inflammatory aggressions, chromatin deregulations and/or mitochondrial dysfunctions affecting adipose tissue. Diagnosis is based on clinical examination, pathological context and comorbidities, and on results of metabolic investigations and genetic analyses, which together determine management and genetic counselling. Early lifestyle and dietary measures focusing on regular physical activity and avoiding excess energy intake are crucial. They are accompanied by multidisciplinary follow-up adapted to each clinical form. In case of hyperglycemia, antidiabetic medications, with metformin as a first-line therapy in adults, are used in addition to lifestyle and dietary modifications. When standard treatments have failed to control metabolic disorders, the orphan drug metreleptin, an analog of leptin, can be effective in certain forms of lipodystrophy syndrome. Metreleptin therapy indications, prescription and monitoring were recently defined in France, representing a major improvement in patient care.

Abstract
Mutations in LMNA, encoding A-type lamins, are responsible for laminopathies including muscular dystrophies, lipodystrophies, and premature ageing syndromes. LMNA mutations have been shown to alter nuclear structure and stiffness, binding to partners at the nuclear envelope or within the nucleoplasm, gene expression and/or prelamin A maturation. LMNA-associated lipodystrophic features, combining generalized or partial fat atrophy and metabolic alterations associated with insulin resistance, could result from altered adipocyte differentiation or from altered fat structure. Recent studies shed some light on how pathogenic A-type lamin variants could trigger lipodystrophy, metabolic complications, and precocious cardiovascular events. Alterations in adipose tissue extracellular matrix and TGF-beta signaling could initiate metabolic inflexibility. Premature senescence of vascular cells could contribute to cardiovascular complications. In affected families, metabolic alterations occur at an earlier age across generations, which could result from epigenetic deregulation induced by LMNA mutations. Novel cellular models recapitulating adipogenic developmental pathways provide scalable tools for disease modeling and therapeutic screening.

Abstract
CONTEXT Familial partial lipodystrophy, Dunnigan variety (FPLD2) is a rare autosomal-dominant disorder due to heterozygous missense lamin A/C (LMNA) mutations. Subjects with FPLD2 gradually lose fat from the upper and lower extremities but gain fat in the face and neck around puberty. However, the precise onset of body fat changes and metabolic complications during childhood remains unknown. OBJECTIVE To compare metabolic parameters and regional body fat in children with FPLD2 with the sex- and age-matched controls from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2005 to 2010. METHODS We measured fasting serum triglycerides, glucose, and skinfold thicknesses in all children (aged 1 to 18 years) harboring FPLD2-causing LMNA mutations and determined regional body fat by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry in those aged ≥8 years. RESULTS Thirty-two affected females and 14 males participated. The lower limb fat in all affected females, except one, was below or equal to the first percentile and in two affected males was below the fifth percentile for NHANES. One female subject with FPLD2 followed from age 6 to 16 years revealed marked loss of extremity fat much before thelarche. Serum triglycerides were higher in females with FPLD2 aged 7 to 18 years compared with controls (median 208 vs 70 mg/dL; P < 0.0001) and showed inverse correlation with extremity skinfolds. Serum triglycerides in males with FPLD2 were not significantly different than controls. CONCLUSIONS The onset of fat loss from the extremities, especially in girls with FPLD2, occurs well before the onset of puberty. High serum triglycerides are seen in young females with FPLD2 with severe loss of fat from the extremities.

Abstract
The nuclear lamina is a complex reticular structure that covers the inner face of the nucleus membrane in metazoan cells. It is mainly formed by intermediate filaments called lamins, and exerts essential functions to maintain the cellular viability. Lamin A/C provides mechanical steadiness to the nucleus and regulates genetic machinery. Laminopathies are tissue-specific or systemic disorders caused by variants in LMNA gene (primary laminopathies) or in other genes encoding proteins which are playing some role in prelamin A maturation or in lamin A/C function (secondary laminopathies). Those disorders in which adipose tissue is affected are called laminopathic lipodystrophies and include type 2 familial partial lipodystrophy and certain premature aging syndromes. This work summarizes the main clinical features of these syndromes, their associated comorbidities and the clues for the differential diagnosis with other lipodystrophic disorders.
