This study evaluates the genetic spectrum of leukodystrophies and leukoencephalopathies in Iran. 152 children, aged from 1 day to 15 years, were genetically tested for leukodystrophies and leukoencephalopathies based on clinical and neuroradiological ...

Background: Leukodystrophies constitute a heterogeneous group of inherited disorders primarily affecting the white matter of the central nervous system. Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (ARSs) catalyze the attachment of an amino acids to their cognate transfer

Leukodystrophy in Tanzania: A Case Study Highlighting Diagnostic Dilemmas and Clinical Implications [PDF]
ABSTRACT Leukodystrophies are rare inherited neurodegenerative disorders characterized by progressive white matter dysfunction and neurological decline. In low‐resource settings, limited access to advanced neuroimaging, biochemical investigations, and genetic testing often delays diagnosis and complicates differentiation from more common infectious ...

Leukodystrophies: clinical and therapeutic aspects [PDF]
This chapter reviews that leukodystrophies is a genetic diseases that occur in early childhood. It is a possibility that leads to screening for leukodystrophy patients with early-onset dementia of unknown origin or atypical psychiatric symptoms.

Advances and Pitfalls of Cell Therapy in Metabolic Leukodystrophies
Leukodystrophies are a group of disorders characterized by myelin dysfunction, either at the level of myelin formation or maintenance, that affect the central nervous system (CNS) and also in some cases, to a lesser extent, the peripheral nervous system (

Leukodystrophies are a group of heterogeneous disorders affecting brain myelin. Among those, childhood ataxia with central nervous system hypomyelination/vanishing white matter (CACH/VWM) is one of the more common inherited leukodystrophies.

The clinicopathologic profiles of the major leukodystrophies (adreno-leukodystrophy, metachromatic leukodystrophy, globoid cell leukodystrophy or Krabbe's disease, Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease, and spongy degeneration of infancy or Canavan's disease) are reviewed.

Canavan Disease as a Model for Gene Therapy-Mediated Myelin Repair
In recent years, the scientific and therapeutic fields for rare, genetic central nervous system (CNS) diseases such as leukodystrophies, or white matter disorders, have expanded significantly in part due to technological advancements in cellular and ...

Leukodystrophies are genetically determined disorders affecting the white matter of the central nervous system. The combination of MRI pattern recognition and next-generation sequencing for the definition of novel disease entities has recently demonstrated that many leukodystrophies are due to the primary involvement and/or mutations in genes ...
