[PMID: 37759684 PMCID: PMC10526185 DOI: 10.3390/biom13091284] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/20/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The STIM family of proteins plays a crucial role in a plethora of cellular functions through the regulation of store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) and, thus, intracellular calcium homeostasis. The two members of the mammalian STIM family, STIM1 and STIM2, are transmembrane proteins that act as Ca2+ sensors in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and, upon Ca2+ store discharge, interact with and activate the Orai/CRACs in the plasma membrane. Dysregulation of Ca2+ signaling leads to the pathogenesis of a variety of human diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, and immune disorders. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms underlying Ca2+ signaling pathways is crucial for developing therapeutic strategies targeting these diseases. This review focuses on several rare conditions associated with STIM1 mutations that lead to either gain- or loss-of-function, characterized by myopathy, hematological and immunological disorders, among others, and due to abnormal activation of CRACs. In addition, we summarize the current evidence concerning STIM2 allele duplication and deletion associated with language, intellectual, and developmental delay, recurrent pulmonary infections, microcephaly, facial dimorphism, limb anomalies, hypogonadism, and congenital heart defects.

Sun W, Hu J, Li M, Huo J, Zhu X. Stormorken syndrome caused by STIM1 mutation: A case report and literature review. MEDICINE INTERNATIONAL 2022; 2:29. [PMID: 36698909 PMCID: PMC9829216 DOI: 10.3892/mi.2022.54] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2022] [Accepted: 09/16/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
The aim of the present case study was to identify the genetic cause of a patient with a clinical presentation of tubular aggregate myopathy (TAM)/Stormorken syndrome (STRMK) and review the published clinical data of patients with TAM/STRMK. A child with thrombocytopenia and hyperCKemia at the Children's Hospital of Soochow University were recruited in the study. Peripheral blood samples of the infant and her parents were collected, and then whole-exome sequencing was performed. Detection of the stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) level of the child was performed using western blot analysis. In addition, a literature review was performed based on a thorough retrieval of published literature from the PubMed database, as well as domestic databases. In the present study, the c.326A>G mutation in a STIM1 allele (p.H109R) was identified only in the child, as opposed to the unaffected parents. The level of STIM1 was not decreased in the child. Among the mutation sites identified in previous studies, there were 46 cases across 30 families of STIM1 EF-hand mutations, 21 cases across 14 families of STIM1 CC1 mutations and 20 cases across 8 families of calcium release-activated calcium channel protein 1 mutations, in which 7 parents had the same mutation site as the patient described herein. On the whole, it is demonstrated that TAM/STRMK is an extremely rare disease with autosomal dominant inheritance. Patients often have multisystemic signs. Gene detection at an early stage is helpful for diagnosis. Long-term exercise training may also have a certain curative effect.

Case Report: Novel STIM1 Gain-of-Function Mutation in a Patient With TAM/STRMK and Immunological Involvement. Front Immunol 2022; 13:917601. [PMID: 35812399 PMCID: PMC9263075 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.917601] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2022] [Accepted: 05/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Gain-of-function (GOF) mutations in STIM1 are responsible for tubular aggregate myopathy and Stormorken syndrome (TAM/STRMK), a clinically overlapping multisystemic disease characterised by muscle weakness, miosis, thrombocytopaenia, hyposplenism, ichthyosis, dyslexia, and short stature. Several mutations have been reported as responsible for the disease. Herein, we describe a patient with TAM/STRMK due to a novel L303P STIM1 mutation, who not only presented clinical manifestations characteristic of TAM/STRMK but also manifested immunological involvement with respiratory infections since childhood, with chronic cough and chronic bronchiectasis. Despite the seemingly normal main immunological parameters, immune cells revealed GOF in calcium signalling compared with healthy donors. The calcium flux dysregulation in the immune cells could be responsible for our patient’s immune involvement. The patient’s mother carried the mutation but did not exhibit TAM/STRMK, manifesting an incomplete penetrance of the mutation. More cases and evidence are necessary to clarify the dual role of STIM1 in immune system dysregulation and myopathy.
