Abstract
INTRODUCTION Moyamoya disease (MMD) and non-MMD intracranial cerebral artery stenosis (ICAS) have been linked to the RNF213 rs112735431 gene in Korean and Japanese populations. This cross-sectional study investigates the prevalence of the RNF213 rs112735431 gene in non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke (NCIS) among Thai patients. METHODS A cross-sectional investigation was conducted on patients aged 18 years or older admitted to King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital between June 2015 and March 2016 with acute NCIS. ICAS and extracranial carotid artery stenosis (ECAS) were assessed through computer tomography angiography or magnetic resonance angiography. Blood samples were collected, and Sanger sequencing was performed. RESULTS Among 234 acute NCIS cases, 113 exhibited ICAS, 12 had ECAS, 20 had both, and 89 had neither. The RNF213 rs112735431 gene variant was detected in 2 patients, both heterozygous A/G. The frequency of the RNF213 rs112735431 variant was 0.9% (2/234; 95% CI: 0-2.1%) in acute NCIS patients and 1.8% (2/113; 95% CI: 0-4.2%) in ICAS. All individuals with the RNF213 variant were males with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and ICAS, without a family history of ischemic stroke. CONCLUSION This study reveals that the RNF213 rs112735431 gene variant is uncommon among Thai NCIS patients, suggesting a discrepancy in the prevalence of this genetic variation between Thai and other Eastern Asian populations.

Ring finger protein 213 c.14576G>A mutation is not involved in internal carotid artery and middle cerebral artery dysplasia. Sci Rep 2021; 11:22163. [PMID: 34773068 PMCID: PMC8589854 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-01623-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2021] [Accepted: 11/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
The ring finger protein 213 (RNF213) susceptibility gene has been detected in more than 80% of Japanese and Korean patients with moyamoya disease (MMD), a bilateral internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion. Furthermore, RNF213 has been detected in more than 20% of East Asians with atherosclerotic ICA stenosis. In this study, we evaluated the frequency of RNF213 mutations in congenital occlusive lesions of the ICA system. This case series was conducted jointly at four university hospitals. Patients with a family history of MMD, quasi-MMD, or related diseases were excluded. Ten patients were diagnosed with abnormal ICA or middle cerebral artery (MCA) angiogenesis. Patients with neurofibromatosis were excluded. Finally, nine patients with congenital vascular abnormalities were selected; of these, five had ICA deficiency and four had twig-like MCA. The RNF213 c.14576G > A mutation was absent in all patients. Therefore, the RNF213 c.14576G > A mutation may not be associated with ICA and MCA congenital dysplasia—rare vascular anomalies making it difficult to study a large number of cases. However, an accumulation of cases is required for accurate determination. The results of this study may help differentiate congenital vascular diseases from MMD.

Machine learning models of ischemia/hemorrhage in moyamoya disease and analysis of its risk factors. Clin Neurol Neurosurg 2021; 209:106919. [PMID: 34507124 DOI: 10.1016/j.clineuro.2021.106919] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2021] [Revised: 08/12/2021] [Accepted: 08/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
OBJECT This study aimed to determine the risk factors of ischemic/hemorrhagic stroke in patients suffering moyamoya disease (MMD), as well as to compare the effects of six analysis methods. METHODS In the present retrospective study, the data originated from the database of Jiang Xi Province Medical Big Data Engineering & Technology Research Center. In addition, the information of patients with MMD that were admitted to the second affiliated hospital of Nanchang university from January 1st, 2012 to December 31st, 2019 was acquired. Six different machine learning methods were adopted to build the models, and XGboost, Logistic regression (LR) and Support vector machine (SVM) models were adopted to determine the risk factors of ischemic/hemorrhagic stroke in patients with MMD because of their excellent performance. Next, the effects of the built models were compared and validated in internal and independent external validation sets. The external validation set involving 204 cases from January 1st, 2018 to December 31st, 2019. RESULT On the whole, 790 patients with MMD were screened, i.e., 397 patients with cerebral infarction and 393 patients with cerebral hemorrhage. In the internal validation set, XGboost model exhibited significant discrimination (AUC>0.75), with its area under the curve (AUC) reaching 0.874 (95% CI: 0.859, 0.889). Compared with the LR and SVM models, the XGboost model in the internal validation set achieved the improved accuracy by 3.2% and 3.1%, respectively, whereas no significant difference was identified. CONCLUSION XGboost model could be more efficient in analyzing the risk factors of ischemic/hemorrhagic stroke in patients with MMD; the risk factors of hemorrhagic stroke in MMD might be closely related to Suzuki stages, presence of an aneurysm, rural residence, hospitalization times and age of onset.

Abstract
The ring finger protein 213 gene (RNF213) rs112735431 was significantly associated with intracranial artery stenosis/occlusion disease (ICASO) in Japan and Korea and to a lesser degree in China. We conducted a case-control study to examine the prevalence and correlates of the RNF213 rare variants in Chinese patients with symptomatic ICASO. A total of 503 cases including 390 ischemic stroke patients (ICASO-IS), 113 intracranial hemorrhage patients (ICASO-ICH) and 227 control subjects were recruited. The snapshot technique was used for RNF213 rare variants analysis, including rs112735431, rs148731719, rs37144111 and rs138130613. Moreover, a meta-analysis was performed to explore the relationship between RNF213 variants and ICASO in Asian. In our case-control study, we found that the rs138130613 variant was significantly associated with ICASO-IS (OR = 9.92, 95% CI 1.24-79.19, p = 0.03). The mean age of first ischemic stroke onset of variant carriers was earlier than the noncarriers (51.3 ± 18.0 versus 66.0 ± 12.9 years old, p = 0.02), but the conventional atherosclerotic risk factors and the characteristics of artery stenosis did not differ between them. In addition, the meta-analysis showed significant association between the rs112735431 polymorphism and the ICASO or ICASO-IS, and this variant was found more often in women and young-onset patients in Asia. This study suggests that the RNF213 rs112735431 and rs138130613 are genetic risk variants for ischemic stroke with intracranial artery stenosis/occlusion in China and rs112735431 is also associated with the high risk of ICASO in Asia. Further large-scale investigation of the RNF213 gene will provide new insights into pathogenetic mechanisms of symptomatic ICASO.

BMC MEDICAL GENETICS 2019; 20:55. [PMID: 30925911 PMCID: PMC6441181 DOI: 10.1186/s12881-019-0788-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2019] [Accepted: 03/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND RNF213 rare variant-p.R4810K (rs112735431) was significantly associated with intracranial artery stenosis/occlusion disease (ICASO) in Japan and Korea and to a lesser degree in China. Considering the allelic heterogeneity, we performed target exome sequencing of RNF213 with the aim to identify the rare variants spectrum and their association with ICASO in a Chinese population and further to explore whether the rare variants carrier patients present specific clinical phenotype. METHODS Target exome sequencing of RNF213 was performed in 250 ICASO patients using FastTarget sequencing technology. Various filtering process were used to select the candidate variants. Control individuals were obtain from 1000 Genome Project (208 Chinese samples) and GeneSky in-house database (1007 samples). Gene-based association analyses were conducted to identify the association between RNF213 rare variants and ICASO. The clinical characteristics of rare variant carriers and non-carriers were compared using Chi-squared test or Fisher's exact test. RESULTS After filtration, 18 rare variants were identified in 39 patients. Gene-based association test showed that rare variants of RNF213 were significantly associated with ICASO (Minor allele frequency < 0.05, WSS p = 4.88 × 10- 10; SKAT p = 9.68 × 10- 6; SKAT-O p = 3.42 × 10- 9). There were no significant clinical characteristic differences other than the diagnosis age which was older in the carriers than the non-carriers (60.5 ± 6.2 vs 57.3 ± 8.9 years old, p = 0.028). CONCLUSION Rare variants of RNF213 are associated with ICASO in Chinese. However, there are limited genetic diagnosis values of the gene due to no specific phenotypic presentation in the carriers and non carrier patients.

Abstract
Background The p.R4810K and other rare variants of ring finger protein 213 gene (RNF213) were illustrated as susceptibility variants for moyamoya (MMD) and non-moyamoya intracranial artery stenosis/occlusion disease (ICASO) recently. However, the effect sizes of p.R4810K were in great discrepancy even in studies of the same ethnic population and firm conclusions of other rare variants have been elusive given the small sample sizes and lack of replication. Thus, we performed this study to quantitatively evaluate whether or to what extent the rare variants of RNF213 contribute to MMD and ICASO in different populations. Methods A systematic search of PubMed, EMBASE, ISI web of science, CNKI, and WANFANG DATA was conducted up to 5 September 2017. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using random- or fixed-effect models based on the between-study heterogeneity. The subgroup analyses were performed by the ethnicity and family history. Sensitivity and publication bias analysis were performed to test the robustness of associations. All the statistical analyses were conduct using STATA 12.0. Results Twenty studies including 2353 MMD cases and 5488 controls and 11 studies including 1778 ICASO cases and 3140 controls were included in this study. Pooled ORs indicated that RNF213 p.R4810K significantly increased MMD and ICASO risk in East Asians with great effect sizes of discrepancy (dominant model: odds ratios 184.04, 109.77, and 31.53 and 10.07, 28.52, and 5.59 for MMD and ICASO, respectively, in Japan, Korea, and China). It significantly increased familial MMD risk in Japan, Korea, and China with 5 ~ 36 times larger effect sizes than that for sporadic ones in each country (dominant model ORs 1802.44, 512.42, 1109.02 and 134.35, 99.82, and 30.52, respectively, for familial and sporadic cases). The effect sizes of RNF213 p.R4810K to sporadic MMD were 3 ~ 4 times larger in Japan and Korea than those in China. RNF213 p.R4810K also increased the ICASO risk in Japan and Korea with 2 ~ 4 times larger effect sizes than that in China (dominant model ORs 10.71, 28.52, and 5.59, respectively). Another two rare variants- p.E4950D and p.A5021V significantly increased MMD risk in Chinese population (dominant model ORs 9.06 and 5.01, respectively). Various other rare variants in RNF213 were identified in Japanese, Chinese, European, and Hispanic American populations without association evidence available yet. Conclusions This meta-analysis shows the critical roles of RNF213 p.R4810K in MMD especially familial MMD and ICASO in Japan, Korea, and China. Except for RNF213 p.R4810K, MMD seems to have more complex determiners in China. Distinct genetic background exists and other environmental or genetic factor(s) may contribute to MMD. Studies focused on delineating the ethnicity-specific factors and pathological role of RNF213 variants in MMD and ICASO are needed.
