To investigate the genetic cause, clinical characteristics, and potential therapeutic targets of infantile corneal myofibromatosis. Case series with genetic and functional invitro analyses. Four individuals from 2 unrelated families with clinical signs of corneal myofibromatosis were investigated. Exome-based panel sequencing for platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta gene (PDGFRB) and notch homolog protein 3 gene (NOTCH3) was performed in the respective index patients. One clinically affected member of each family was tested for the pathogenic variant detected in the respective index by Sanger sequencing. Immunohistochemical staining on excised corneal tissue was conducted. Functional analysis of the individual PDGFRB variants was performed invitro by luciferase reporter assays on transfected porcine aortic endothelial cells using tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Protein expression analysis of mutated PDGFRB was analyzed by Western blot. Sequencing data, immunohistochemical stainings, functional analysis of PDGFRB variants, and protein expression analysis. We identified 2 novel, heterozygous gain-of-function variants in PDGFRB in 4 individuals from 2 unrelated families with corneal myofibromatosis. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated positivity for alpha-smooth muscle actin and β-catenin, a low proliferation rate in Ki-67 (< 5%), marginal positivity for Desmin, and negative staining for Caldesmon and CD34. In all patients, recurrence of disease occurred after corneal surgery. When transfected in cultured cells, the PDGFRB variants conferred a constitutive activity to the receptor in the absence of its ligand and were sensitive to the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib. The variants can both be classified as likely pathogenic regarding the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics classification criteria. We describe 4 cases of corneal myofibromatosis caused by novel PDGFRB variants with autosomal dominant transmission. Imatinib sensitivity invitro suggests perspectives for targeted therapy preventing recurrences in the future.
