We report a rare PPARG mutation, Y151C, which is located in the DBD of PPARG and leads to FPLD, and the preferred agent is PPARG agonists. We then summarized clinical phenotypic characteristics of FPLD3 caused by PPARG gene mutations, and clarified the relationship between different mutations of PPARG gene and the clinical manifestations of this type of FPLD. Additionally, current treatments for FPLD caused by PPARG mutations are reviewed.
Core Tip: This study reports a rare peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARG) mutation (Y151C) in a 31-year-old woman with familial partial lipodystrophy type 3 (FPLD3), characterized by adipose tissue loss and metabolic complications. The mutation was identified in the PPARG DNA-binding domain. Pioglitazone, a PPARG agonist, effectively improved the patient’s glycemic and blood pressure control. This highlights the importance of genetic testing in FPLD3 diagnosis and the potential of PPARG agonists in managing metabolic complications.

FPLD comprises a set of autosomal dominant inherited diseases that feature a reduction of fat in the arms, legs, and glutes[7]. Patients with varying clinical phenotypic features have led to the classification of FPLD into several subtypes, namely FPLD1 through FPLD6[1]. The classification of FPL into different types is primarily attributed to its genetic he

Considering that the patient is relatively young and exhibits multiple symptoms of metabolic disorders, as well as having a family history of three generations with consecutive occurrences, the patient and her parents underwent genetic testing. Whole exome sequencing revealed a heterozygous pathogenic mutation Y151C (c.452A > c.452G) in exon 3 of the PPARG gene in the proband and her father, which led to the diagnosis of FPLD. Sanger sequencing had not found the same mutation in her mother (Figure 1). The patient was given pioglitazone after being diagnosed with FPLD, with significant reductions in the types and dosages of other medications used (Table 1). One year later, she was 73 kg with BMI 26.30 kg/m2. Fasting blood glucose was 7.2 mmol/L and HbA1c was 6.8%, blood pressure was 160/118 mmHg, TG was 4.00 mmol/L.
Referencing the previous text, it is believed that FPL of the third subtype [FPLD3; online mendelian inheritance in man (OMIM) 604367], an autosomal dominant genetic condition, arises from a prevailing non-functional mutation within the PPARG gene[11]. People affected by FPLD3 possess and retain a normal fat distribution pattern during their early childhood; however, as they enter their teen years, they undergo a decrease in the fatty layer beneath the skin in their arms and legs, as well as in specific areas of their torso, creating the appearance of enhanced muscular development. Typically, people exhibit a shortage of subcutaneous fat in their arms and legs as well as their glutes, but they preserve both subcutaneous and visceral fat in the region of their midsection. Furthermore, fat irregularly accumulates in the liver and muscles, giving rise to numerous metabolic disorders including insulin resistance, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, abnormal blood lipid levels, and type 2 diabetes mellitus, among other conditions[1]. Furthermore, FPLD3 tends to impact female patients with greater frequency and severity compared to male counterparts. Affected females frequently develop features of polycystic ovarian syndrome including polycystic ovaries, hirsutism, and oligomenorrhea[12]. Early onset of cardiovascular disease has also been reported[5].
PPARG, a member of the family of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors which also includes PPAR-α, PPAR-β, and PPAR-δ among others, is a type of PPAR. PPARG belongs to the vast family of nuclear hormone receptors[13], which includes 48 transcription factors specific to humans. Steroids, thyroid hormones, vitamins, lipid metabolites, and all obiotin exert control by specifically attaching themselves, thereby regulating these elements[14,15]. Activators of peroxisome proliferators attach themselves to compounds that stimulate the multiplication of peroxisomes[16]. The cellular peroxidase organelle facilitates the oxidative breakdown of fatty acids (OMIM 601487), while PPARG, which is produced by the PPARG gene, plays a role in managing fat synthesis and the preservation of adipose tissue[13]. The primary expression of this is observed in fat tissue, particularly within the cells of both white and brown fat[17-20]. The expression of PPARG is more pronounced in monocytes (or macrophages) and colonic regions of adipose tissue, whereas it is less abundant in various additional tissues. The mechanism by which it governs the transcription of specific genes is triggered by a variety of endogenous lipid compounds. Nonetheless, a definitive principal natural ligand remains to be distinctly recognized[15].
PPARG is comprised of four distinct regions with specific roles: These include the activation function 1 domain, DNA binding domain, hinge domain, and ligand binding domain[21]. PPARG1 and PPARG2, which are subtypes of PPARG, exhibit variations at their N-termini; specifically, PPARG2 possesses an additional 30 amino acids compared to PPARG1. These subtypes are derived from different transcription initiation sites; the PPARG gene has nine exons, eight of which encode PPARG1 and seven of which encode PPARG2. G1 and G2 are mainly expressed in adipocytes, while PPAR-G1 is also expressed at lower levels in other tissues, including macrophages, liver, brain, and muscle[22].
PPARG is crucial for the differentiation of adipocytes, metabolic processes, insulin responsiveness, and managing inflammation, due to its wide range of functions[23]. PPARG plays a pivotal role in preadipocyte differentiation into mature adipocytes by binding with retinoid X receptor, a member of the nuclear receptor family, to form a heterodimer, which regulates adipocyte differentiation, lipid storage, and release[15,24,25]. PPARG, an important modulator of adipogenesis and adipose tissue homeostasis, exhibits high expression levels in both white and brown fat tissues, as well as in additional tissue types. It promotes fat production without enlarging fat cells; instead, it leads to an increase in the number of smaller cells. Furthermore, its function includes promoting the transformation of subcutaneous fat into visceral fat[1].
The PPARG gene is essential for the transformation and metabolic processes of fat cells, significantly affecting the clinical manifestations associated with atypical alterations in human fat tissue[26]. In this section, we will provide a brief introduction to the clinical phenotype of FPLD patients with PPARG gene mutations. Additionally, we will summarize the clinical phenotype of FPLD patients with mutations at different sites in the PPARG gene. By doing so, we hope to enhance our understanding of FPLD caused by PPARG mutation and facilitate clinical diagnosis and treatment.
Present-day scholarly articles suggest that divergent mutations at various locations within an identical gene may lead to unique clinical manifestations, a concept referred to as “phenotypic heterogeneity” in the field of genetics. We have compiled clinical phenotype information and PPARG mutation types for FPLD patients diagnosed with PPARG gene mutations, as shown in Table 2. We discovered that patients with FPLD caused by PPARG mutations may experience metabolic syndromes, including diabetes (or insulin resistance), hypertriglyceridemia, hypertension, and other car

Based on current reports, treatments for lipodystrophy are limited to preventing and improving patients’ metabolic complications and cannot achieve a complete cure or radical treatment. Consequently, this part will scrutinize contemporary studies addressing FPLD therapies linked to PPARG mutations, with a focus on three key domains: Overall management strategies, interventions for insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus, and remedies for lipodystrophy.
Dietary control and moderate exercise are the cornerstones of the treatment of all types of lipodystrophy, as this is not only beneficial for lipodystrophy itself, but also helps to ameliorate metabolic disorders such as diabetes mellitus and hypertriglyceridemia, as well as to reduce the risk of coronary atherosclerotic heart disease[6]. Individuals undergoing treatment are advised to adhere to a nutritional regimen comprising 50%-60% carbs, 20%-30% fats, and roughly 20% protein[6,32]. Since some patients with FPLD have hyperphagia due to reduced leptin levels[7], they should be advised to adopt an energy-restricted diet, as overeating is likely to precipitate or exacerbate their metabolic complications and lead to disease progression. In the absence of specific contraindications, most patients should engage in physical activity, but those with cardiac disease should undergo a cardiac evaluation prior to initiating exercise therapy while avoiding strenuous exercise[6].
As with all patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, improvement of glycemia and insulin resistance will have multiple beneficial metabolic effects, including improved TG levels[33]. Metformin and thiazolidinediones (TZDs) have shown efficacy in the management of diabetes in patients with lipodystrophies[34-39]. An open label study of troglitazone, a TZD, on patients with lipodystrophy showed an improvement in metabolic profile, including HbA1c and fasting TG[39]. Troglitazone is no longer available due to hepatic toxicity[40,41], and evidence is limited for other TZDs. In our case, pioglitazone significantly improved insulin resistance, reduced insulin dosage, and helped with blood pressure and serum lipids. Some case studies using pioglitazone in FPLD patients have shown improvement in dysglycemia and dyslipidemia[36-38]. However, pioglitazone has been associated with an increased incidence of heart failure and fluid retention, so it is generally used with caution[42]. Insulin is also used in the management of diabetes, although increased doses and concentrated preparations of insulin may be required in some lipodystrophy patients with severe insulin resistance[43]. Additional treatments for high blood sugar, such as inhibitors of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 and agonists for glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors, are utilized for lipodystrophy conditions. However, clinical trials targeting these groups are lacking, even though some animal research and individual case studies suggest they may be effective[44-46].
Metreleptin, a recombinant human leptin analogue, represents leptin replacement therapy and is currently the only effective therapeutic agent for lipodystrophy. The regulatory authorities in the United States, European Union, and Japan have sanctioned the use of metreleptin as a therapeutic option for lipodystrophy[47]. Of note, metreleptin is not currently food and drug administration-approved for use in patients with FPLD and is only available through trials, compassionate use, or special access programs or, to a lesser extent, in Japan[6]. Practice recommendations from various medical societies propose that for patients with partial lipodystrophy who demonstrate leptin deficiency (leptin < 4 ng/mL) and significant metabolic complications (HbA1c > 8% and/or TG > 500mg/dL), Metreleptin could be considered a viable treatment alternative[6]. Based on the lastest reports, the efficacy of metriptyline in patients with lipodystrophy in the pathogenic variant of PPARG, mainly in terms of improvement in serum TG and glycemic parameters (e.g., HbA1c), is controversial, as the improvement in hypertriglyceridemia was not significant in some reported cases[33,48,49].
