目的探讨串联质谱及气相色谱质谱技术检测羊水中的酰基肉碱及有机酸用于丙酸血症(propionic acidemia, PA)产前诊断的诊断价值。
方法收集2010年—2016年40例于上海交通大学医学院附属新华医院进行产前诊断且生育过PA患儿的孕妇作为PA母亲组。从同期进行常规产前诊断孕妇中随机选取40例作为对照组。2组孕妇均于妊娠16~20周进行羊膜腔穿刺术抽取羊水。采用串联质谱检测羊水丙酰肉碱(propionylcarnitine, C3)、乙酰肉碱(acetylcarnitine, C2)水平,采用气相色谱质谱检测羊水甲基枸橼酸、3-羟基丙酸水平,部分羊水细胞进行基因检测。
结果PA母亲组4例孕妇羊水C3[9.53(6.06~11.45)mmol/L]、C3/C2[1.03(0.62~1.43)]、甲基枸橼酸[3.15(2.05~4.58) mmol/mol肌酐]水平均高于对照组[1.14(0.52~ 3.40)mmol/L, 0.11(0.05~0.22), 0.00(0.00~0.34) mmol/mol肌酐],提示胎儿为PA阳性患儿,检出率为10%;其中3例进行了基因突变检测均检测到突变位点。3-羟基丙酸在对照组与阳性组之间差异无统计学意义。
结论PA孕妇再生PA患儿的几率为10%左右,可利用串联质谱及气相色谱质谱技术检测羊水中的C3、甲基枸橼酸水平,对先证者为PA的孕妇进行产前诊断。
ObjectiveTo investigate the value of acylcarnitine and organic acid in amniotic fluid for the diagnosis of propionic acidemia (PA) by tandem mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).
MethodsFrom 2010 to 2016, 40 pregnant women with PA neonate received pregnatal diagnosis of PA in Xinhua Hospital of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine (as PA mother group). Another 40 cases of pregnant women for conventional prenatal diagnosis at the same period were collected as control group. The pregnant women of two groups had the amniocentesis at 16-20 weeks of gestation. The levels of propionylcarnitine (C3) and acetylcarnitine (C2) in amniotic fluid were detected by tandem mass spectrometry, and the levels of methylcitrate acid and 3-hydroxypropionate were determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Part of the amniotic fluid cells were made genetic testing.
ResultsIn PA mother group, 4 fetuses were positive and the detection rate was 10%. The levels of C3 [9.53 (6.06-11.45)mmol/L], C3/C2 [1.03 (0.62-1.43)] and methylcitrate acid [3.15 (2.05-4.58) mmol/molCr] in amniotic fluid of these 4 cases were higher than those in control group[1.14 (0.52~3.40) mmol/L, 0.11 (0.05-0.22), 0.00 (0.00-0.34)mmol/molCr]. Three cases of the PA-positive children were diagnosed by gene testing. There was no significant difference of 3-hydroxypropionic acid between control group and the positive group.
ConclusionFor pregnant women with PA proband, the probability of children regeneration with PA is about 10%. Tandem mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry can be used to detect the levels of C3 and methylcitrate in amniotic fluid, and to make prenatal diagnosis of PA.
