The Neuronal Ceroid‐Lipofuscinoses. Recent Advances

open access: yesBrain Pathology, 1998
The neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs) represent a group of neurodegenerative disorders characterised by progressive visual failure, neurodegeneration, epilepsy and the accumulation of an autofluorescent lipopigment in neurons and other cells. The main childhood subtypes are infantile (INCL;CLN1), classical late infantile (LINCL;CLN2) and juvenile ...

Fundamental Neurochemistry Review: Sphingolipids and Ceramides in Brain Development

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, Volume 169, Issue 10, October 2025.
Ceramides and sphingolipids in brain development and cell compartments. Ceramides and sphingolipids are known to influence multiple steps of brain development, including the formation of the neural tube, neural stem cell polarity and proliferation at the ventricular boundary, neuronal migration—for example, whilst migrating on radial glial processes ...

Loss of CLN7 results in depletion of soluble lysosomal proteins and impaired mTOR reactivation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Defects in the MFSD8 gene encoding the lysosomal membrane protein CLN7 lead to CLN7 disease, a neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder belonging to the group of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs). Here we have performed a SILAC-based quantitative

A Practical Guide to Genetic Eye Conditions for Paediatricians

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 61, Issue 10, Page 1538-1548, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Inherited eye disorders, though individually rare, are a collectively common cause of paediatric vision impairment. Many occur as part of a syndrome, in association with congenital anomalies and/or growth/developmental disorders.

The Spectrum of Neurologic Phenotypes Associated With NUS1 Pathogenic Variants: A Comprehensive Case Series

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 561-572, September 2025.
Objective A growing body of evidence indicates a strong genetic overlap between developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) and movement disorders. De novo loss‐of‐function variants in NUS1 have been recently identified in DEE cases. Herein, we report a large cohort of cases with pathogenic NUS1 variants and describe their clinical presentation

Utility of whole exome sequencing for the early diagnosis of pediatric-onset cerebellar atrophy associated with developmental delay in an inbred population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
International audienceAbstractBackgroundCerebellar atrophy and developmental delay are commonly associated features in large numbers of genetic diseases that frequently also include epilepsy. These defects are highly heterogeneous on both the genetic and

Progressively reduced synaptic vesicle pool size in cultured neurons derived from neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis-1 knockout mice

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2005
The neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses are a newly-recognized group of lysosomal storage disorders in which neurodegeneration predominates. The pathophysiological basis for this is unknown.

Clinical phenotype features and genetic etiologies of 38 children with progressive myoclonic epilepsy

open access: yesActa Epileptologica, 2020
Background Progressive myoclonic epilepsy (PME) is a group of neurodegenerative diseases with genetic heterogeneity and phenotypic similarities, and many cases remain unknown of the genetic causes. This study is aim to summarize the clinical features and
