SPG4 and Dementia: Expanding the Clinical Spectrum

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a group of disorders characterized by progressive spasticity and lower limb weakness, with mutations in SPG4/SPAST being the most common cause. Detailed studies and clinical and molecular comparisons across different populations are missing.

RNA Sequencing Resolves Cryptic Pathogenic Variants in Mitochondrial Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Mitochondrial diseases are the most common inherited metabolic disorders, characterized by pronounced clinical and genetic heterogeneity that complicates molecular diagnosis. Although DNA‐based sequencing approaches have become standard in genetic testing, up to half of patients remain without a definitive diagnosis.

Severe Metabolic Acidosis Causes Early Lethality in Nbc1 W516x Knock-in Mice as a Model of Human Isolated Proximal Renal Tubular Acidosis

open access: yes, 2012
We have identified a novel homozygous nonsense mutation (W 516X) in the kidney-type electrogenic sodium bicarbonate cotransporter 1 (NBC1) in a patient with isolated proximal renal tubular acidosis (pRTA). To specifically address the pathogenesis of this

Safety and Tolerability of Givinostat: Evidence From Real‐World and Clinical Practice

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The aim of our study was to establish the prevalence of adverse events in a real‐world setting in boys living with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) treated with givinostat as part of an Expanded Access Program (EAP) in Italy. Methods The cohort included 90 ambulant boys, with age when treatment started between 6 and 23 years (mean ...

Nonsense mutations in the can1 locus of Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1983
Yeast mutants resistant to L-canavanine were selected. All were recessive and fell into the can1 complementation group. Nonsense mutations were identified among them by using a set of different suppressors. Frequencies of UAA, UAG, and presumed UGA mutations were 14.8, 0.8, and 0.4%, respectively.

Early Clinical, Imaging, and Pathological Characteristics of SRPK3/TTN‐Digenic Myopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy was recently established as a skeletal muscle myopathy caused by digenic inheritance. This study characterizes the early clinical presentation of SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy in one previously reported and seven newly identified pediatric patients.

Compound Heterozygote Friedreich Ataxia Patients With Covert Proximal FXN Gene Deletions

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present Friedreich ataxia patients with frataxin gene deletions. Data and records were collected at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia from patients enrolled in the FACOMS natural history study. Patients with proximal deletions initially diagnosed with only one GAA expanded allele had more severe disease than their homozygous expansion
