مستخلص: BACKGROUND Birt-Hogg-Dubé (BHD) syndrome is an autosomal dominant multisystem disorder with skin (fibrofolliculomas or trichodiscomas), lung (cysts and pneumothorax) and kidney (renal cell carcinoma) tumours. Although colorectal neoplasia was reported initially to be part of the BHD phenotype, some recent studies have not confirmed this association. METHODS A series of clinical and laboratory studies was undertaken to investigate possible relationships between colorectal neoplasia and the BHD gene (FLCN). The studies investigated whether individuals with familial colorectal cancer of unknown cause might have unsuspected germline FLCN mutations, looked for somatic FLCN C(8) tract mutations in microsatellite unstable sporadic colorectal cancers, and assessed the risk of colorectal neoplasia and possible genotype-phenotype correlations in BHD patients. RESULTS Although it was found previously that germline FLCN mutations can be detected in approximately 5% of patients with familial renal cell carcinoma, germline FLCN mutations were not detected in 50 patients with familial non-syndromic colorectal cancer. Analysis of genotype-phenotype correlations for two recurrent FLCN mutations identified in a subset of 51 families with BHD demonstrated a significantly higher risk of colorectal neoplasia in c.1285dupC mutation (within the exon 11 C(8) mononucleotide tract) carriers than in c.610delGCinsTA mutation carriers (chi(2)=5.78, p=0.016). Somatic frameshift mutations in the FLCN exon 11 C(8) mononucleotide tract were detected in 23% of sporadic colorectal cancers with microsatellite instability, suggesting that FLCN inactivation might contribute to colorectal tumourigenesis. CONCLUSIONS These findings suggest that the previously reported clinical heterogeneity for colorectal neoplasia may reflect allelic heterogeneity and the risk of colorectal neoplasia in BHD syndrome requires further investigation.
