Bi-allelic JAM2 Variants Lead to Early-Onset Recessive Primary Familial Brain Calcification

2020

International audience; Primary familial brain calcification (PFBC) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a combination of neurological, psychiatric, and cognitive decline associated with calcium deposition on brain imaging. To date, mutations in five genes have been linked to PFBC. However, more than 50% of individuals affected by PFBC have no molecular diagnosis. We report four unrelated families presenting with initial learning difficulties and seizures and later psychiatric symptoms, cerebellar ataxia, extrapyramidal signs, and extensive calcifications on brain imaging. Through a combination of homozygosity mapping and exome sequencing, we mapped this phenotype to chromo…

Dissecting the Phenotype and Genotype of PLA2G6-Related Parkinsonism.

2022

Background Complex parkinsonism is the commonest phenotype in late-onset PLA2G6-associated neurodegeneration. Objectives The aim of this study was to deeply characterize phenogenotypically PLA2G6-related parkinsonism in the largest cohort ever reported. Methods We report 14 new cases of PLA2G6-related parkinsonism and perform a systematic literature review. Results PLA2G6-related parkinsonism shows a fairly distinct phenotype based on 86 cases from 68 pedigrees. Young onset (median age, 23.0 years) with parkinsonism/dystonia, gait/balance, and/or psychiatric/cognitive symptoms were common presenting features. Dystonia occurred in 69.4%, pyramidal signs in 77.2%, myoclonus in 65.2%, and cere…
