Abstrakt: Chondrodysplasias with multiple dislocations are rare skeletal disorders characterized by hyperlaxity, joint dislocations, and growth retardation. Chondrodysplasias with multiple dislocations have been linked to pathogenic variants in genes encoding proteins involved in the proteoglycan biosynthesis. In this study, by exome sequencing analysis, we identified a homozygous nonsense variant (NM_001297654.2: c.1825C > T, p.Arg609*) in the discoidin domain receptor 1 (DDR1) gene in a patient presenting joint dislocations, hyperlaxity, and cerebellar hypoplasia. Functional studies revealed decreased proteoglycan production in patient fibroblasts. We further demonstrated that DDR1 inhibition impaired the Indian Hedgehog (IHH) signaling pathway in chondrocytes, decreased differentiation and mineralization in osteoblasts, and disrupted p38 MAPK signaling in both cell types. Additionally, we showed that DDR1 inhibition affected the non-canonical WNT signaling pathway in human skeletal cells and decreased proteoglycan production in chondrocytes. These findings suggest that DDR1 is a new gene involved in the group of chondrodysplasias with multiple dislocations and highlights its essential role in human skeletal and brain development.
