Objective:The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between common exonic variants in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) gene and risk of multiple system atrophy (MSA).Methods:One series from the United States (92 patients with pathologically confirmed MSA, 416 controls) and a second series from the United Kingdom (85 patients with pathologically confirmed MSA, 352 controls) were included in this case-control study. We supplemented these data with those of 53 patients from the United States with clinically probable or possible MSA. Seventeen common LRRK2 exonic variants were genotyped and assessed for association with MSA.Results:In the combined series of 177 patients with pathologically confirmed MSA and 768 controls, there was a significant association between LRRK2 p.M2397T and MSA (odds ratio [OR] = 0.60, p = 0.002). This protective effect was observed more strongly in the US series (OR = 0.46, p = 0.0008) than the UK series (OR = 0.82, p = 0.41). We observed other noteworthy associations with MSA for p.G1624G (OR = 0.63, p = 0.006) and p.N2081D (OR = 0.15, p = 0.010). The p.G1624G-M2397T haplotype was significantly associated with MSA in the US series (p < 0.0001) and combined series (p = 0.003) but not the UK series (p = 0.67). Results were consistent when additionally including the US patients with clinical MSA, where the strongest single-variant association was again observed for p.M2397T (OR = 0.59, p = 0.0005).Conclusions:These findings provide evidence that LRRK2 exonic variants may contribute to susceptibility to MSA. Validation in other series and meta-analytic studies will be important.

Phosphorylated tau sites that are elevated in Alzheimer's disease fluid biomarkers are visualized in early neurofibrillary tangle maturity levels in the post mortem brain

Christina M. Moloney, Sydney A. Labuzan, Julia E. Crook, Habeeba Siddiqui, Monica Castanedes-Casey, Christian Lachner, Ronald C. Petersen, Ranjan Duara, Neill R. Graff-Radford, Dennis W. Dickson, Michelle M. Mielke, Melissa E. Murray

Summary: This study aims to characterize the recognition of phosphorylated tau sites in early neurofibrillary tangle maturity levels, which may explain why these fluid biomarkers can be observed before symptom onset.

Summary: This study synthesized two PET probes and evaluated their permeability through the blood-brain barrier and affinity towards GSK-3 alpha/beta. The results showed that [F-18]F-CNPIFE had higher brain uptake compared to [F-18]F-CNBI, making it a promising PET probe for imaging GSK-3 alpha/beta.

Ben Gaastra, Sheila Alexander, Mark K. Bakker, Hemant Bhagat, Philippe Bijlenga, Spiros L. Blackburn, Malie K. Collins, Sylvain Dore, Christoph J. Griessenauer, Philipp Hendrix, Eun Pyo Hong, Isabel C. Hostettler, Henry Houlden, Koji IIhara, Jin Pyeong Jeon, Bong Jun Kim, Jiang Li, Sandrine Morel, Paul Nyquist, Dianxu Ren, Ynte M. Ruigrok, David Werring, Will Tapper, Ian Galea, Diederik Bulters

Summary: This study identified 157 genetic variants associated with outcomes after aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH) through a genome-wide association study, with one variant in the SPNS2 gene achieving genome-wide significance. Validation of these findings will provide significant insights into the pathophysiology of outcomes after aSAH and may have implications for treatment.

Functional genomics provide key insights to improve the diagnostic yield of hereditary ataxia

Zhongbo Chen, Arianna Tucci, Valentina Cipriani, Emil K. Gustavsson, Kristina Ibanez, Regina H. Reynolds, David Zhang, Letizia Vestito, Alejandro Cisterna Garcia, Siddharth Sethi, Jonathan W. Brenton, Sonia Garcia-Ruiz, Aine Fairbrother-Browne, Ana-Luisa Gil-Martinez, Nick Wood, John A. Hardy, Damian Smedley, Henry Houlden, Juan Botia, Mina Ryten

Summary: Using a systems biology approach, Chen et al. found that genes associated with adult- and child-onset ataxia share common characteristics, including a high density of short tandem repeats. Removing the age-of-onset partition and screening for repeat expansions could improve the diagnosis of hereditary ataxia.

HLA-DRB1*1501 influences long-term disability progression and tissue damage on MRI in relapse-onset multiple sclerosis

Wallace J. Brownlee, Carmen Tur, Andreea Manole, Arman Eshaghi, Ferran Prados, Katherine A. Miszkiel, Claudia A. M. Gandini Wheeler-Kingshott, Henry Houlden, Olga Ciccarelli

Summary: This study found that HLA-DRB1*1501 is associated with the severity of multiple sclerosis (MS), as indicated by long-term disability worsening and greater extent of inflammatory disease activity and tissue loss. HLA-DRB1*1501 may provide useful information for prognosis and treatment decisions in early relapse-onset MS.

Almashham, Ehsan Ghayoor Karimiani, Juan Pablo Kaski, Eissa Ali Faqeih, Farveh Vakilian, Yalda Jamshidi

Summary: Inherited cardiomyopathies are a prevalent cause of heart failure and sudden cardiac death. Whole exome sequencing and autozygosity mapping in Middle Eastern families with hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathy identified variants in TNNI3K, DSP, RBCK1, NRAP, and KLHL24 genes associated with different phenotypes. This expands the mutational spectrum and suggests novel modes of inheritance for recessive cardiomyopathies.

Summary: This study aimed to identify mitochondrial dysfunction due to mtDNA variants in 19 selected subjects with ASD and clinical features of mitochondrial disease. The results showed that 79% of the patients had myogenic or neurogenic changes in the histological examination, 58% had lipid accumulation, mitochondrial proliferation, and COX-deficient fibers. Biochemical investigations revealed impairments involving one or more of the respiratory chain complexes in three patients. Genetic studies found multiple mtDNA deletions in one patient with normal histology and biochemistry, and different mtDNA point mutations in four patients.

Summary: Glossopharyngeal neuralgia (GPN) is a neurological condition characterized by paroxysmal, stabbing-like pain. Pharmacological treatment is the first line, but some patients require surgical intervention. A systematic review showed that microvascular decompression (MVD) alone achieved immediate pain relief in 85% of patients and long-term relief in 65-90% of patients. Rhizotomy alone provided instant relief in 85-100% of patients, but long-term relief was lower. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) had promising results in pain reduction, but further studies are needed.

DNAJC12 in Monoamine Metabolism, Neurodevelopment, and Neurodegeneration

Isaac Bul Deng, Jordan Follett, Mengfei Bu, Matthew J. Farrer

Summary: Recent studies have shown that pathogenic variants in DNAJC12 can cause various diseases, including mild hyperphenylalaninemia, infantile dystonia, young-onset parkinsonism, developmental delay and cognitive deficits. DNAJC12 has been included in newborn screening, particularly in Spain, emphasizing the importance of genetic diagnosis and early intervention. However, many practitioners may not be aware of these advances, and molecular testing for DNAJC12 is yet to be conducted for many patients, especially adults. This review provides a summary of genotype-phenotype relationships and treatment approaches for patients with pathogenic variants in DNAJC12, as well as an overview of the protein's structure, known genetic variants, domains, binding partners, and its role in monoamine synthesis, disease etiology, and pathogenesis.
