Optic Atrophy in a Patient With Atypical Pantothenate Kinase-Associated Neurodegeneration.
Pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN) is an autosomal recessive neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation and characterized by extrapyramidal signs, vision loss, and intellectual decline.

Pallidal stimulation improves pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration
Pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN) causes a progressive generalized dystonia which remains pharmacologically intractable. We performed bilateral internal globus pallidus stimulation in six patients with genetically confirmed PKAN who

Impaired drug-induced endovesiculation in erythrocytes of patients with acanthocytosis.
Erythrocytes from patients (ChAc, PKAN+, PKAN-) and control donors were subjected to drug-induced endovesiculation using 3 mM primaquine. The amount of FITC-dextran positive cells (in %) was assessed by flow cytometry as described.

The role of impaired De novo Coenzyne A biosynthesis in pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration : insight from a Drosophila model [PDF]
Pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN, OMIM 234200) is an autosomal recessive, progressive neurodegenerative disorder. PKAN is caused by mutations in pantothenate kinase 2 (PANK2), the gene that encodes an enzyme (PANK2) which is a rate ...

Phenotypes and Genotypes of Patients with Pantothenate Kinase-Associated Neurodegeneration in Asian and Caucasian Populations: 2 Cases and Literature Review [PDF]
Objectives. Pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN) is a rare disease caused by pantothenate kinase 2 (PANK2, OMIM 606157) mutations. This study is aimed to investigate clinical presentations, pathologies, and genetics in patients with ...

BackgroundPantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN) is the most common subtype of neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation and is classically associated with pallidal iron deposition and the “eye-of-the-tiger” sign on MRI.

PKAN is an autosomal recessive disorder with mutations in the PANK2 gene, encoding an essen- tial enzyme for CoA biosynthesis. The molecular connection between defects in this enzyme and the neurodegenerative phenotype observed in PKAN patients is still ...
