Hirschsprung disease (HSCR, aganglionic megacolon) is a frequent congenital
malformation regarded as a multigenic neurocristopathy. Two susceptibility
genes have been recently identified in HSCR, namely the RET proto-oncogene
and the endothelin B receptor (EDNRB) gene. Hitherto however, homozygosity
for EDNRB mutations accounted for the HSCR- Waardenburg syndrome (WS)
association. Here, we report heterozygous EDNRB missense mutations (G57S,
R319W and P383L) in isolated HSCR. These data might suggest that EDNRB
mutations could be dosage sensitive: heterozygosity would predispose to
isolated HSCR with incomplete penetrance, while homozygosity would result
in more complex neurocristopathies associating HSCR and WS features. In
addition, the present data give further support to the role of the
endothelin- signalling pathway in the development of neural crest-derived
enteric neurons.
