RESUMO

Joubert syndrome (JS) is a genetic neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by lower brainstem dysplasia and cerebellar vermis agenesis termed molar tooth sign (MTS), psychomotor retardation, abnormal respiratory pattern in infancy, and oculomotor abnormalities. Arima syndrome (AS), which is a severe form of JS, is characterized by severe psychomotor retardation, congenital visual impairment, progressive renal dysfunction, and lower brainstem dysplasia from early infancy. Numerous patients with AS expire in early childhood. Recently, c.6012-12T> A in the CEP290 gene was reported as a specific variant of AS. Herein, we report the cases of two siblings showing a phenotype of JS with compound heterozygous mutations (c.6012-12T > A / c.5924delT) in the CEP290 gene. The older sister (aged 19 years) had hypotonia, hypertelorism, and anteverted nares since birth. As a neonate, she developed a transient abnormal respiratory pattern and nystagmus, and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed MTS. The younger sister (aged 13 years) exhibited mild hypotonia and pendular nystagmus as a neonate; MRI revealed MTS. Both sisters had psychomotor retardation, oculomotor dysfunction, and bilateral renal cysts with normal renal function. They can walk and have simple conversation. They do not meet the diagnostic criteria for AS, and their symptoms were milder than those of previously reported cases with this specific mutation. This report indicates the expanding spectrum of the CEP290 variant.

RESUMO

Alpha-ketoadipic acid is one of the metabolic intermediates of lysine and tryptophan, and it is known as the biochemical hallmark of alpha-ketoadipic aciduria (α-KA). α-KA is a rare autosomal recessive disorder. Its pathophysiology is reduced alpha-ketoadipic acid dehydrogenase activity, and that makes it difficult to metabolize lysine and tryptophan. The symptoms of this disease are multiple, e.g., psychomotor retardation, epilepsy, and ataxia, and it can even be asymptomatic. We present a case of sudden death in a 2-year-old boy with alpha-ketoadipic aciduria. Postmortem computed tomography (CT) and autopsy were performed to elucidate the cause of death. No obvious lesions could be identified except for a marked fatty liver. Urinalysis showed elevated excretion of α-ketoadipic acid.

RESUMO

A Japanese girl with polycystic kidney disease (PKD) developed normally, but at 8 months of age, she was hospitalized for acute onset dyspnea. On the day after admission to hospital, her general condition suddenly became worse. An echocardiogram showed left ventricular dilatation with thin walls, severe mitral valve regurgitation, and a reduced ejection fraction. She died of acute cardiac failure 3 hours after the sudden change. Postmortem analysis with light microscopy showed disarray of cardiomyocytes without obvious infiltration of lymphocytes, and we diagnosed her heart failure as idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Clinical exome sequencing showed compound heterozygous variants in JPH2 (p.T237A/p.I414L) and a heterozygous nonsense mutation in PKD1 (p.Q4193*). To date, several variants in the JPH2 gene have been reported to be pathogenic for adult-onset hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or DCM in an autosomal dominant manner and infantile-onset DCM in an autosomal recessive manner. Additionally, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is a systemic disease associated with several extrarenal manifestations, such as cardiomyopathy. Here we report a sudden infant death case of DCM and discuss the genetic variants of DCM and PKD.

RESUMO

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of genetic deficiencies of lysosomal enzymes that catabolize glycosaminoglycans (GAG). Here we describe a novel MPS-like disease caused by a specific mutation in the VPS33A gene. We identified several Yakut patients showing typical manifestations of MPS: coarse facial features, skeletal abnormalities, hepatosplenomegaly, respiratory problems, mental retardation, and excess secretion of urinary GAG. However, these patients could not be diagnosed enzymatically as MPS. They showed extremely high levels of plasma heparan sulphate (HS, one of GAG); 60 times the normal reference range and 6 times that of MPS patients. Additionally, most patients developed heart, kidney, and hematopoietic disorders, which are not typical symptoms for conventional MPS, leading to a fatal outcome between 1 and 2-years old. Using whole exome and Sanger sequencing, we identified homozygous c.1492C > T (p.Arg498Trp) mutations in the VPS33A gene of 13 patients. VPS33A is involved in endocytic and autophagic pathways, but the identified mutation did not affect either of these pathways. Lysosomal over-acidification and HS accumulation were detected in patient-derived and VPS33A-depleted cells, suggesting a novel role of this gene in lysosomal functions. We hence propose a new type of MPS that is not caused by an enzymatic deficiency.

RESUMO

Krabbe disease, one of the autosomal-recessive lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs), is caused by a deficiency of galactocerebrosidase (GALC) activity, resulting in the intracellular accumulation of psychosine, which is cytotoxic for neuronal cells. Genetically pathogenic mutations result in conformational changes in GALC and disrupt the lysosmal trafficking of cargos, which subsequently accumulate in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Recently, ER stress together with the activation of the unfolded protein response (UPR) has been suggested to play a key role in the pathogenesis of LSDs. In this study, we hence investigated whether the UPR is activated in Krabbe disease using COS-7 cells expressing pathogenic GALC mutants and skin fibroblasts (SFs) from Krabbe disease patients with various phenotypes, using a combination of semiquantitative and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reactions. We found that UPR activation in Krabbe disease depends on the mutations and cell types, and there is the possibility that multiple pathways, involving ER chaperones, inositol-requiring kinase 1, and protein kinase regulated by RNA-like ER kinase are activated by mutations associated with the infantile form. These results indicate that in Krabbe disease, each misfolded/unfolded protein evokes different UPR activation depending on the mutation, and that the activated pathways affect the phenotypes.

RESUMO

Williams syndrome (WS) is a rare genetic disorder caused by a microdeletion of chromosome 7q11.23. Although the mortality rate of patients with WS is not very high, sudden cardiac death can occur, particularly in cases complicated by coronary artery stenosis. A 3-month-old female infant with supravalvular aortic stenosis and peripheral pulmonary stenosis was discovered unconscious in bed by her mother. She was immediately transferred to an emergency hospital but succumbed despite multiple attempts as resuscitation. DNA microarray analysis revealed microdeletions of 7q11.23 and 16p11.2, confirming WS and unexpectedly identifying 16p11.2 deletion syndrome which is known to be associated with neurodevelopmental disorders. Postmortem computed tomography revealed a severely enlarged heart, indicative of cardiac dysfunction. External examination revealed moderate-to-severe developmental delays in height and body weight. The heart, on internal examination, revealed whitish-discolored lesions; histologically severe fibrotic changes and thickening of the intima in the coronary arteries and aorta. In the brain, the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus appeared malformed. Taken together, these findings suggest that the cause of death was cardiac dysfunction due to WS. In addition, it could be possible that 16p11.2 deletion syndrome and dentate gyrus malformation contributed to her death. Future autopsy studies are warranted to clarify the precise role of microdeletion disorders in sudden death to reduce future preventable deaths in children.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND Glutathione synthetase deficiency (GSD) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by glutathione synthetase (GSS) gene variants that occur in 1 in 1 million individuals. The severe form of GSD is characterized by hemolytic anemia, metabolic acidosis with 5-oxoprolinuria, progressive neurological symptoms, and recurrent bacterial infections. This case report presents a male Japanese infant with severe hemolytic anemia and metabolic acidosis at birth caused by GSD, who developed progressive neurological symptoms on follow-up. CASE REPORT A Japanese male term infant developed severe hemolytic anemia and metabolic acidosis in the early neonatal period. We suspected GSD based on his symptoms and a high 5-oxoproline urine concentration. We began correcting his metabolic acidosis and administering vitamins C and E supplements. The patient required blood transfusion twice during the acute phase for hemolytic anemia. After age 1 month, he maintained good control of metabolic acidosis and hemolytic anemia. A definitive diagnosis of GSD was made based on high concentrations of 5-oxoproline in urine, low concentrations of glutathione and GSS activity in erythrocytes, and genetic testing. Several episodes of febrile convulsions were started at age 11 months, but none occurred after 2 years. At the last follow-up at age 25 months, metabolic acidosis and hemolytic anemia were well controlled, but he had mild neurodevelopmental delay. CONCLUSIONS This case report shows that GSD can present with severe hemolytic anemia and metabolic acidosis at birth, and manifest with subsequent neurological impairment despite early diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, a careful long-term follow-up that includes neurological evaluation is essential for patients with GSD.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Hemorrhagic shock and encephalopathy syndrome (HSES) is a serious condition that requires intensive care and is associated with a high mortality rate. However, its pathogenesis remains unclear. In the present study, a genetic analysis was performed to determine the genetic background of patients with clinically suspected Dravet syndrome (DS) who developed HSES. METHODS: Whole exome sequencing was performed, followed by minigene analysis of the intron variant detected by whole exome sequencing to confirm its effect on splicing. RESULTS: Whole exome sequencing revealed a novel 21-bp deletion in intron 3 of SCN1A NM_001165963.4 (NC_000002.11:g.166073675_166073695del). This deletion was not found in the patient's parents and was proven to be de novo. Minigene analysis revealed an aberrant mRNA lacking 40 and 106 bp from the 5' end of exon 4 of SCN1A. Therefore, we diagnosed this case as DS due to the deletion in intron 3 of SCN1A. CONCLUSIONS: We report a case of DS with HSES caused by a 21-bp deletion in the intron of SCN1A that was confirmed by minigene analysis. The present case met Levin's criteria for HSES and the splicing analysis of SCN1A is an important finding. This study has important implications for understanding HSES pathogenesis.

RESUMO

Background and objectives: To clarify whether severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection cause acute encephalopathy in children and which are the most common syndromes that cause them and what are the outcomes. Methods: A nationwide web-based survey among all members of the Japanese Society of Child Neurology to identify pediatric patients aged < 18 years who developed acute encephalopathy in Japan between 1 January 2020 and 31 May 2022 associated with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection confirmed by polymerase chain reaction or antigen tests using pharyngeal swabs. Acute encephalopathy was defined as acute onset of impaired consciousness lasting > 24 h or an altered mental state; neurological symptoms arising within 2 weeks of onset of COVID-19 or multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C)/pediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome (PIMS); evidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection; and reasonable exclusion of other diseases. Patients were divided into the known clinico-radiological acute encephalopathy syndrome group and unexplained or unclassifiable acute encephalopathy group. Outcomes were assessed by pediatric cerebral performance category (PCPC) score at hospital discharge. Results: Of the 3,802 society members, 217 representing institutions responded, and 39 patients with suspected acute encephalopathy were reported, of which 31 met inclusion criteria. Of these patients, 14 were diagnosed with known clinico-radiological acute encephalopathy syndromes, with acute encephalopathy with biphasic seizures and late reduced diffusion (five patients) being the most common. Five developed acute encephalopathy associated with MIS-C/PIMS. Among 31 patients, 9 (29.0%) had severe sequelae or died (PCPC ≥ 4). Two of three patients with encephalopathy with acute fulminant cerebral edema and two with hemorrhagic shock and encephalopathy syndrome died. The PCPC scores were higher in the known clinico-radiological acute encephalopathy syndrome group than in the unexplained or unclassifiable acute encephalopathy group (P < 0.01). Discussion: Acute encephalopathy related to SARS-CoV-2 infection was demonstrated to be more severe than that caused by other viruses in Japan. Acute encephalopathy syndromes characterized by specific neuroradiological findings was associated with poor clinical outcomes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Arthrogryposis, renal dysfunction, and cholestasis syndrome (ARCS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in VPS33B (ARCS1) and VIPAS39 (ARCS2). As per literature, most patients with ARCS died of persistent infections and bleeding by the age of 1 year. We report the first Japanese cases with ARCS1 and ARCS2 who presented with mild phenotypes and were diagnosed via genetic testing. CASE PRESENTATION: Case 1: A 6-year-old boy born to nonconsanguineous Japanese parents presented with jaundice and normal serum gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) levels, proteinuria, bilateral nerve deafness, motor delay, failure to thrive, and persistent pruritus. After cochlear implantation for deafness at the age of 2 years, despite a normal platelet count and prothrombin time-international normalized ratio, the patient presented with persistent bleeding that required hematoma removal. Although he did not show any obvious signs of arthrogryposis, he was suspected to have ARCS based on other symptoms. Compound heterozygous mutations in VPS33B were identified using targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS), which resulted in no protein expression. Case 2: A 7-month-old boy, the younger brother of case 1, presented with bilateral deafness, renal tubular dysfunction, failure to thrive, and mild cholestasis. He had the same mutations that were identified in his brother's VPS33B. Case 3: A 24-year-old man born to nonconsanguineous Japanese parents was suspected to have progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis 1 (PFIC1) in his childhood on the basis of low GGT cholestasis, renal tubular dysfunction, sensory deafness, mental retardation, and persistent itching. A liver biopsy performed at the age of 16 years showed findings that were consistent with PFIC1. He developed anemia owing to intraperitoneal hemorrhage from a peripheral intrahepatic artery the day after the biopsy, and transcatheter arterial embolization was required. ARCS2 was diagnosed using targeted NGS, which identified novel compound heterozygous mutations in VIPAS39. CONCLUSIONS: The first Japanese cases of ARCS1 and ARCS2 diagnosed using genetic tests were reported in this study. These cases are milder than those previously reported. For patients with ARCS, invasive procedures should be performed with meticulous care to prevent bleeding.

RESUMO

In mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS), spinal cord compression (SCC) resulting from glycosaminoglycan (GAG) accumulation is a critical complication that can cause significant neurological and respiratory morbidities. However, clinically similar disorders such as mucolipidosis types II and III (ML) with SCC have been scarcely reported. Herein, we report four patients with ML who had SCC. Brain MRI revealed progressive spinal canal stenosis and SCC. In addition, T2-weighted high signal changes in the cervical cord were detected in two cases. Severe cases of SCC were detected as early as 1 year of age. All cases had respiratory problems. One case showed severe hypoxia and another, severe sleep apnea. In two cases, respiratory insufficiency and tetraplegia rapidly progressed as SCC progressed. Then, the patients became bedridden and needed artificial ventilation. In addition, two of the four patients died of respiratory failure. The autopsy of one patient revealed a compressed cervical cord and marked dura mater thickening due to GAG accumulation. These findings suggest that the accumulation of substrates in the dura mater caused SCC in the patients with ML. Our cases indicate that SCC is expected to be a common and critical complication of ML and MPS. MRI evaluation of cervical involvements and careful clinical observation are required in patients with ML.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The mitochondrial DNA MT-ATP6 gene encodes the ATP6 subunit of the mitochondrial ATP synthase. The m.9185 T > C variant in MT-ATP6 has been reported to cause various neurological disorders including late-onset Leigh syndrome (LS). To our knowledge, there has been no reported case of infantile-onset LS associated with the m.9185 T > C variant. Herein, we report a patient with early-onset LS complicated with infantile spasms who exhibited profound developmental delay. CASE REPORT: A 3-month-old Japanese girl presented with focal seizures. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed bilateral lesions in the basal ganglia and cerebral peduncle. Laboratory evaluation demonstrated marked elevations of lactate and pyruvate in both venous blood and cerebrospinal fluid. At 6 months, she developed infantile spasms, which were ceased by adrenocorticotropic hormone therapy. At 2 years of age, she was bedridden due to hypotonic quadriplegia and was unable to make eye contact. Whole-exome sequencing identified apparently de novo homoplasmic m.9185 T > C variant in her blood. CONCLUSION: This is the first case report describing early infantile-onset LS associated with the m.9185 T > C variant, and thereby broadens the phenotypic spectrum of m.9185 T > C-related disorders.

RESUMO

Hartsfield syndrome (HS: OMIM 615465) is a rare congenital disease associated with a mutation of the fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 gene (FGFR1) with the main features of holoprosencephaly and ectrodactyly. Patients with HS also present with endocrinological deficits, such as isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism and central diabetes insipidus. Although there are several studies on infancy/childhood history, there is no study of infant/childhood/adolescent/young adult HS natural history and endocrinological findings. Here, we report a male patient with HS associated with a novel de novo FGFR1 mutation (c. 1868A > C). The endocrinological profile was evaluated at ages 1 and 31 years. This long-term follow-up study highlights functional changes in the posterior pituitary gland and features of bone metabolism disorder. We also describe the anterior pituitary function. To our knowledge this is the first description of the natural history of an HS patient through birth to young adult age. Although the HS infants reported in the literature develop central diabetes insipidus, little is known about the serial changes in pituitary gland function during growth in HS patients. In this study we describe an adult patient with HS who showed improvement of hypernatremia during early adulthood. In addition, we emphasize the importance of prevention and treatment of osteoporosis in HS.

RESUMO

We report the first case of Leigh syndrome (LS) with Fukuyama congenital muscular dystrophy (FCMD). A neonate suffered from lactic acidosis and subsequently presented with poor feeding, muscle weakness, hypotonia, cardiopulmonary dysfunction, and hydrocephalus. He died at 17 months. The findings of brain magnetic resonance imaging indicated some specific features of both LS and FCMD, and FCMD gene mutation was detected. Decreased mitochondrial respiratory complex I and II activity was noted. Mitochondrial DNA sequencing showed no pathogenic mutation. A case with complex I+II deficiency has rarely been reported, suggesting a nuclear gene mutation.
