#SETBP1
New paper alert! Rare DNA changes in the SETBP1 gene are linked to speech problems & diverse syndromes affecting brain development. Work led by ace postdoc @maggiemkwong.bsky.social uncovered impact of different gene variants, coupling clinical/speech evaluation to molecular & cellular readouts.🧬🗣️🔬🧪
SETBP1 variants outside the degron disrupt DNA-binding, transcription and neuronal differentiation capacity to cause a heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder - Nature Communications
Different types of SETBP1 variants cause variable developmental syndromes with only partial clinical and functional overlaps. Here, the authors report that SETBP1 variants outside the degron region impair DNA-binding, transcription, and neuronal differentiation capacity and morphologies.

SETBP1 missense variants outside the canonical degron region have been shown to disrupt DNA binding, transcriptional regulation, and neuronal differentiation, resulting in a distinct neurodevelopmental disorder. doi.org/g97j2r
New insights into SETBP1 variants reveal mechanisms behind neurodevelopmental disorders
An international research team led by Maggie Wong at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics (MPI) has discovered that SETBP1 missense variants outside the canonical degron region can disrupt DNA binding, transcriptional regulation, and neuronal differentiation—giving rise to a distinct, clinically heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder.

CMML 的分子標記不是 CSF3R
CMML 常見的是 TET2(約 60%)、SRSF2(約 50%)、ASXL1(約 40%)以及 RAS pathway 突變;CSF3R 是 CNL 的標誌(T618I,見於 >80%)。
aCML(WHO-5 改稱 MDS/MPN with neutrophilia)則富含 SETBP1 與 ETNK1,各約三分之一。

CNL 的診斷條件
白血球 ≥25×10⁹/L、成熟嗜中性球 ≥80%、循環前驅細胞 <10%、無明顯 dysplasia,並排除 BCR::ABL1 與其他 MPN,再加上 CSF3R 突變。
常伴隨的次要突變是 ASXL1 與 SETBP1 —— 後者出現代表預後較差。
記法:CNL 是嗜中性,受器出問題 → CSF3R。

MDS/MPN-SF3B1-T 的定義基因
是 SF3B1(約九成以上),常合併 JAK2 V617F(約三分之一),加上血小板 ≥450K 與環狀鐵粒幼細胞。
SETBP1 只出現在約 6.6%,不是定義基因 —— 它的代表疾病是 aCML 與 CMML。
WHO-5 已把此病名從 MDS/MPN-RS-T 改為 MDS/MPN with SF3B1 mutation and thrombocytosis。

SETBP1 突變出現在哪
它的代表疾病是非典型 CML(aCML)與 CMML,屬不良預後。
MDS/MPN-RS-T 的招牌不是 SETBP1,而是 SF3B1 加上 JAK2 V617F —— ring sideroblasts 加血小板增多的組合。

Too much or too little of the SETBP1 protein can disrupt important brain cell signals, linked to disorders like Schinzel-Giedion Syndrome. SETBP1 might help organize genetic material in cells, influencing gene activity. This highlights its crucial role in brain development and related conditions.
