A Rare Case of Cerebrotendinous Xanthomatosis Associated With a Mutation on COG8 Gene

Journal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2023
Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis ( CTX ) is a rare hereditary disease described by a mutation in the CYP27A1 gene , which encodes the sterol 27-hydroxylase enzyme involved in the synthesis of bile acid.

Spinal xanthomatosis: a variant of cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis [PDF]

Brain, 1999
We describe seven Dutch patients from six families with a slowly progressive, mainly spinal cord syndrome that remained for many years the sole expression of cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX). MRI demonstrated white matter abnormalities in the lateral and dorsal columns of the spinal cord.

Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis

Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2013
Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare neurological disease characterized by accumulation of cholesterol and cholestanol in brain and tendons caused by a mutation in the sterol 27-hydroxylase gene (CYP27A1). The mechanism behind the accumulation of cholestanol in the brain was recently clarified and a role of 27-hydroxycholesterol as a ...

Pathophysiology of cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis

Rinsho Shinkeigaku, 2016
Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare autosomal-recessive lipid storage disease caused by mutations in the CYP27A1 gene, which lead to deficiency of the mitochondrial enzyme, sterol 27-hydroxylase, resulting in the accumulation of cholestanol in the serum and many affected lesions.

Tendon xanthomas as indicators of atherosclerotic burden on coronary arteries

Indian Heart Journal, 2013
The presence of tendon xanthomas is an almost certain indicator of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). They also reflect coronary atherosclerotic burden and therefore must be treated aggressively.
