Genotype-phenotype correlation in contactin-associated protein-like 2 (CNTNAP-2) developmental disorder. [PDF]

open access: yesHum Genet, 2023
AbstractContactin-associated protein-like 2 (CNTNAP2) gene encodes for CASPR2, a presynaptic type 1 transmembrane protein, involved in cell–cell adhesion and synaptic interactions. Biallelic CNTNAP2 loss has been associated with “Pitt-Hopkins-like syndrome-1” (MIM#610042), while the pathogenic role of heterozygous variants remains controversial.

Molecular Architecture of Contactin-associated Protein-like 2 (CNTNAP2) and Its Interaction with Contactin 2 (CNTN2). [PDF]

open access: yesJ Biol Chem, 2016
Contactin-associated protein-like 2 (CNTNAP2) is a large multidomain neuronal adhesion molecule implicated in a number of neurological disorders, including epilepsy, schizophrenia, autism spectrum disorder, intellectual disability, and language delay. We reveal here by electron microscopy that the architecture of CNTNAP2 is composed of a large, medium,

Distinct movement disorders in contactin-associated-protein-like-2 antibody-associated autoimmune encephalitis [PDF]

open access: yesBrain, 2022
Abstract Autoimmune encephalitis can be classified into antibody-defined subtypes, which can manifest with immunotherapy-responsive movement disorders sometimes mimicking non-inflammatory aetiologies. In the elderly, anti-LGI1 and contactin associated protein like 2 (CASPR2) antibody-associated diseases compose a relevant fraction of ...

Synaptic abnormalities and cytoplasmic glutamate receptor aggregates in contactin associated protein-like 2/Caspr2 knockout neurons. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2015
Significance In this paper, we characterize, for the first time to our knowledge, synaptic phenotypes in contactin associated protein-like 2 ( Cntnap2 ) knockout neurons and reveal a novel role for CNTNAP2 in the correct trafficking of AMPA-type glutamate receptors.

Contactin-associated protein 2 autoantibodies can be associated with multifocal motor-like neuropathy: a case report

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Neurological Disorders, 2023
Autoantibodies against contactin-associated protein 2 (CASPR2) are usually associated with autoimmune encephalitis and neuromyotonia. Their association with inflammatory neuropathies has been described in case reports albeit all with distal symmetric ...

Autoimmune Parkinsonism: A Newer Manifestation of Contactin-Associated Protein-Like 2 Autoimmunity: A Case Report [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Clinical Neuroscience Journal, 2023
Contactin-associated protein-like 2 (CASPR2) antibodies are part of an expanding spectrum of disorders. Although they were initially associated with Morvan’s syndrome and peripheral nerve hyperexcitability, their clinical manifestations are more varied than previously recognized.

Molecular Cytogenetic Analysis and Resequencing of Contactin Associated Protein-Like 2 in Autism Spectrum Disorders [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Human Genetics, 2008
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are a group of related neurodevelopmental syndromes with complex genetic etiology. We identified a de novo chromosome 7q inversion disrupting Autism susceptibility candidate 2 (AUTS2) and Contactin Associated Protein-Like 2 (CNTNAP2) in a child with cognitive and social delay.

Immunotherapy-Resistant Neuropathic Pain and Fatigue Predict Quality-of-Life in Contactin-Associated Protein-Like 2 Antibody Disease. [PDF]

open access: yesAnn Neurol
The long‐term clinical outcomes and associated prognostic factors in contactin‐associated protein‐like 2 (CASPR2)‐antibody diseases are unknown. A total of 75 participants with CASPR2 antibodies were longitudinally assessed for disability, quality‐of‐life, and chronic pain.

Early-Stage Contactin-Associated Protein-like 2 Limbic Encephalitis: Clues for Diagnosis. [PDF]

open access: yesNeurol Neuroimmunol Neuroinflamm, 2023
Previous studies suggested that autoimmune limbic encephalitis with antibodies against contactin-associated protein-like 2 (CASPR2-encephalitis) is clinically heterogeneous and progresses slowly, preventing its early recognition. We aimed to describe the onset and progression of CASPR2-encephalitis and to assess long-term outcomes.We retrospectively ...
