We previously mapped BWS, by genetic linkage analysis, to 11p15.5, which we and others also found to contain several imprinted genes; these include the gene for insulin-like growth factor II (IGF2) and H19, which show abnormal imprint-specific expression and/or methylation in 20% of BWS patients, and p57KIP2, a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, which we found showed biallelic expression in one of nine BWS patients studied.

We found that 22 cases in a large cohort of patients affected by Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) had IC1 methylated on both parental chromosomes, resulting in biallelic activation of IGF2 and biallelic silencing of H19.

To understand how the same disease can result from misregulation of two linked, but unrelated, genes, we generated a mouse model for BWS that both harbors a null mutation in p57(Kip2) and displays loss of Igf2 imprinting.

This study shows that paternal IGF2/H19 domain triplication results in BWS, gives additional support to the hypothesis that the maternal amplification of IGF2/H19 domain may lead to the manifestation of SRS and underlines difficulties of genetic counseling in patients with CNVs involving the 11p15.5 region.

This excess of IGF-II causes somatic overgrowth, visceromegaly, placentomegaly, omphalocele, and cardiac and adrenal defects, which are also features of the Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS), a genetically complex human disorder associated with chromosomal abnormalities in the 11p15.5 region where the IGF2 gene resides.

These results indicate that in BWS, (1) H19 imprinting alterations are less frequent than previously estimated, (2) IGF2 imprinting and H19 imprinting are not necessarily coordinated, and (3) alterations in regional replication timing are generally not correlated with either chromosomal rearrangements or the imprinting status of IGF2 and H19.

Therefore, we propose that loss of CTCF-dependent imprinting of tumor-promoting genes, such as IGF2 and TERT, results from a defective TGF-β pathway and is responsible at least in part for BWS-associated tumorigenesis as well as sporadic human cancers that are frequently associated with SPTBN1 and SMAD3 mutations.
