Lamotrigine Therapy in Neuronal Lipofuscinosis

open access: yesPediatric Neurology Briefs, 1999
Lamotrigine (LTG) long-term anticonvulsant therapy was evaluated in 29 patients, aged 6-28 years (mean, 14 years), with juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (JNCL), followed for 1-6 years (mean, 3 years) at the Hospital for Children and Adolescents ...

Finnish Variant of Late Infantile Ceroid Neuronal Lipofuscinosis (fvLINCL); Atypical Finding on Magnetic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesInternational Clinical Neuroscience Journal, 2021
Ceroid neuronal lipofuscinosis (CLN) is a rare group of autosomal recessive neurodegenerative diseases that cause developmental delay and seizures. Herein, we present a case of a 7-year-old girl who referred for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) following

Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis in Qatar: Report of a Novel Mutation in Ceroid-Lipofuscinosis, Neuronal 5 in the Arab Population

open access: yes, 2011
This study sought to genetically define the first family diagnosed with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis from Qatar. Onset was in late infancy (3 years), and sequencing in the affected children revealed a novel homozygous c.613C>T change in exon 3 of ...

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Plasma biomarkers for neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis [PDF]

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, 2015
The neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs) are a group of neurodegenerative genetic diseases that primarily affect children and have no known cure. A unified clinical rating scale for the juvenile form of NCL has been developed, although it has not been validated in other subtypes and does not give a true measure of the pathophysiological changes ...

Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis Type 2: A Case Series from Argentina

open access: yesJournal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2022
Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2 (CLN2) disease is a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations in the CLN2/TPP1 gene, leading to a deficiency in tripeptidyl peptidase 1 activity.

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...
