Absence of axoglial paranodal junctions in a child with CNTNAP1 mutations, hypomyelination, and arthrogryposis

open access: yes, 2018
Leukodystrophies and genetic leukoencephalopathies are a heterogeneous group of heritable disorders that affect the glial-axonal unit. As more patients with unsolved leukodystrophies and genetic leukoencephalopathies undergo next generation sequencing ...

Clinical, Behavioral and Neuroradiological Phenotype in an Italian Cohort of Patients With Xia Gibbs Syndrome: A Multicenter Cross‐Sectional Study and Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 9, Page 2067-2079, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Heterozygous variants in the AHDC1 gene are associated with Xia Gibbs Syndrome (XGS), a genetic disorder with a highly variable phenotype. Cognitive impairment, motor delay, language delay, neonatal hypotonia, and sleep apnea are considered “cardinal” signs of the disease.

A quantitative study of white matter hypomyelination and oligodendroglial maturation in focal cortical dysplasia type II

open access: yes, 2013
Purpose A diagnostic feature of focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) type II on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is increased subcortical white matter (WM) signal on T2 sequences corresponding to hypomyelination, the cause of which is unknown.

A case of 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate synthetase deficiency due to biallelic null mutations with novel findings of elevated neopterin and macrocytic anemia

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2019
We describe a case of 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate synthetase (MTHFS) deficiency characterized by microcephaly, global developmental delay, epilepsy, and cerebral hypomyelination.

Monoallelic POLR3A Variants Cause Early‐Onset Peripheral Neuropathy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 100, Issue 3, Page 655-671, September 2026.
Objective Biallelic variants in genes encoding the RNA polymerase III complex (Pol III) cause a spectrum of neurological disorders primarily affecting the central nervous system. Monoallelic variants have been reported in the POLR3B subunit only, associated with neurodevelopmental disorder, epilepsy, and peripheral neuropathy.

Mutations in NKX6-2 Cause Progressive Spastic Ataxia and Hypomyelination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Progressive limb spasticity and cerebellar ataxia are frequently found together in clinical practice and form a heterogeneous group of degenerative disorders that are classified either as pure spastic ataxia or as complex spastic ataxia with additional ...

Diabetes and the Metabolic Syndrome as Drivers of Neurodegeneration: Convergent Mechanisms Linking Peripheral Neuropathy and Dementia

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 100, Issue 3, Page 458-476, September 2026.
The metabolic syndrome, a state of progressive metabolic dysfunction, injures the peripheral and central nervous systems, promoting peripheral neuropathy (PN) and cognitive impairment (CI), respectively. We posit PN and CI are connected in the metabolic syndrome framework, built on the premise that neurons, whether in the peripheral or central nervous ...

Myelination and Remyelination in Peripheral Nerve Injury: Mechanisms, Regulation, and Therapeutic Perspectives [PDF]

open access: yesMedComm (2020)
Peripheral nerve injury triggers axonal degeneration, myelin breakdown, and Schwann cell reprogramming. Remyelination requires reactivation of the SOX10–OCT6–KROX20/EGR2 transcriptional hierarchy, axonal NRG1–ErbB2/3 signaling, metabolic support, and coordinated immune regulation.

High incidence of Y‐chromosome mosaicism in male and female individuals with mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, Volume 67, Issue 9, Page 4907-4921, September 2026.
Abstract Objective Mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia in epilepsy (MOGHE) is an underrecognized pediatric cortical lesion associated with somatic X‐linked SLC35A2 variants in approximately 50% of individuals. The genetic etiology in individuals without detectable SLC35A2 mutations remains undefined, which limits

Loss of oligodendrocyte ErbB receptor signaling leads to hypomyelination, reduced density of parvalbumin-expressing interneurons, and inhibitory function in the auditory cortex

open access: yes, 2023
For a long time, myelin was thought to be restricted to excitatory neurons, and studies on dysmyelination focused primarily on excitatory cells. Recent evidence showed that axons of inhibitory neurons in the neocortex are also myelinated, but the role of
