Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) associated with DNAAF2 variants has rarely been reported in females with infertility. Moreover, there is no report linking DNAAF2 to scoliosis in human.Materials and Methods: We recruited patients from two consanguineous families with a clinical diagnosis of PCD and collected their clinical history, laboratory tests, and radiographic data. Sequencing and bioinformatics analysis were then performed. Immunofluorescence and high-speed microscope analysis were used to support the pathogenicity of the variant.Results: Proband 1, a 26-year-old female from family I, exhibited scoliosis, bronchiectasis, sinusitis, situs inversus, and infertility. We found a novel homozygous missense variant in DNAAF2, c.491T>C, p.(Leu164Pro) in this patient. Subsequent immunofluorescence indicated the absence of outer dynein arm and inner dynein arm of cilia, and high-speed microscopy analysis showed that the most of the cilia are static, which support the pathogenicity of this variant. Proband 2, a 53-year-old female, presented with bronchiectasis, sinusitis, and infertility. In this patient, a new homozygous frameshift variant DNAAF2, c.822del, p.(Ala275Profs*10) was identified. The disease-causing variants mentioned above are not included in the current authorized genetic databases.Conclusion: Our findings expand the spectrum of DNAAF2 variants and link DNAAF2 to female infertility and likely scoliosis in patients with PCD.Keywords: primary ciliary dyskinesia, scoliosis, DNAAF2, bronchiectasis, situs inversus, female infertilityLu CYang DLei CWang RGuo TLuo HDove Medical Pressarticleprimary ciliary dyskinesiascoliosisdnaaf2bronchiectasissitus inversusfemale infertilityTherapeutics.
