RNF213 was recently reported as a susceptibility gene for moyamoya disease (MMD). Our aim to clarify the correlation between genotype and MMD phenotype.The entire coding region of sequenced in 204 patients with MMD, corresponding variants were checked 62 pairs parents, 13 mothers 4 fathers patients, 283 normal controls. Clinical information collected. Genotype-phenotype correlations statistically analyzed.The c.14576G>A variant identified 95.1% familial 79.2% sporadic 1.8% controls, thus...
Whole-genome and -exome resequencing using next-generation sequencers is a powerful approach for identifying genomic variations that are associated with diseases. However, systematic strategies prioritizing causative variants from many candidates to explain the disease phenotype still far being established, because population-specific frequency spectrum of genetic variation has not been characterized. Here, we have collected exomic 1208 Japanese individuals through collaborative effort,...
Summary Purpose KCNQ2 mutations have been found in patients with benign familial neonatal seizures, myokymia, or early onset epileptic encephalopathy ( EOEE ). In this study, we aimed to delineate the clinical spectrum of associated mutation. Methods A total 239 , including 51 cases Ohtahara syndrome and 104 West syndrome, were analyzed by high‐resolution melting HRM ) analysis whole‐exome sequencing. Detailed information electroencephalography EEG brain magnetic resonance imaging MRI...
Objective Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) type IIb is a malformation characterized by architectural abnormalities, dysmorphic neurons, and balloon cells. It has been suggested that FCDs are caused somatic mutations in cells the developing brain. Here, we explore possible involvement of FCD IIb. Methods We collected total 24 blood‐brain paired samples with FCD, including 13 individuals IIb, 5 IIa, 6 I. performed whole‐exome sequencing using from 9 subjects. Somatic MTOR were identified further...
Kabuki syndrome (KS) is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by unique facial appearance, growth retardation, skeletal abnormalities, and intellectual disability. In 2010, MLL2 was identified as causative gene. On the basis of published reports, 55-80% KS cases can be explained abnormalities. Recently, de novo deletion KDM6A has been reported in three patients, but point mutations have never found. this study, we investigated 32 patients without an mutation. We two nonsense one 3-bp...
<h3>Objective:</h3> We aimed to investigate the possible association between <i>SCN2A</i> mutations and early-onset epileptic encephalopathies (EOEEs). <h3>Methods:</h3> recruited a total of 328 patients with EOEE, including 67 Ohtahara syndrome (OS) 150 West syndrome. were examined using high resolution melt analysis or whole exome sequencing. <h3>Results:</h3> found 14 novel missense in 15 patients: 9 OS cases (13.4%), 1 (0.67%), 5 111 unclassified EOEEs (4.5%). Twelve confirmed as de...
Abstract Kabuki syndrome is a congenital anomaly characterized by developmental delay, intellectual disability, specific facial features including long palpebral fissures and ectropion of the lateral third lower eyelids, prominent digit pads, skeletal visceral abnormalities. Mutations in MLL2 KDM6A cause syndrome. We screened 81 individuals with for mutations these genes conventional methods (n = 58) and/or targeted resequencing 45) or whole exome sequencing 5). identified mutation 50...
Recently, COL4A1 mutations have been reported in porencephaly and other cerebral vascular diseases, often associated with ocular, renal, muscular features. In this study, we aimed to clarify the phenotypic spectrum incidence of mutations.We screened for 61 patients 10 schizencephaly, which may be similarly caused by disturbed supply leading degeneration, but can distinguished depending on time insult.COL4A1 were identified 15 (21%, 5 schizencephaly), who showed a variety findings, including...
De novo SCN8A mutations have been reported in patients with epileptic encephalopathy. Herein we report seven de heterozygous mutations, which were found our comprehensive genetic analysis (target capture or whole-exome sequencing) for early onset encephalopathies (EOEEs).A total of 163 EOEEs without known genes, including 6 malignant migrating partial seizures infancy (MMPSI), and 60 unclassified EOEEs, analyzed by target (28 samples) sequencing (135 samples).We identified 7 patients:...
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a heterogeneous connective tissue disorder involving skin and joint laxity fragility. A new type of EDS, similar to kyphoscoliosis but without lysyl hydroxylase deficiency, has been investigated. We have identified homozygous CHST14 (carbohydrate sulfotransferase 14) mutation in the two familial cases compound heterozygous mutations four sporadic cases. encodes dermatan 4-O-sulfotransferase 1 (D4ST1), which transfers active sulfate from 3'-phosphoadenosine...
Summary Purpose: De novo STXBP1 mutations have been found in individuals with early infantile epileptic encephalopathy suppression‐burst pattern (EIEE). Our aim was to delineate the clinical spectrum of subjects mutations, and examine their biologic aspects. Methods: analyzed 29 54 cases cryptogenic EIEE West syndrome, respectively, as a second cohort. RNA splicing lymphoblastoid cells from subject harboring c.663 + 5G>A mutation. Expression protein missense examined neuroblastoma2A...
Neuronal damage in the somatosensory system causes intractable chronic neuropathic pain. Plastic changes sensory neuron excitability are considered cellular basis of persistent Non-coding microRNAs modulate specific gene translation to impact on diverse functions and their dysregulation various diseases. However, significance adult neuronal disorders is still poorly understood. Here, we show that miR-7a a key functional RNA sustaining late phase pain through regulation rats. In pain,...
Coffin-Siris syndrome (CSS) is a congenital disorder characterized by intellectual disability, growth deficiency, microcephaly, coarse facial features, and hypoplastic or absent fifth fingernails and/or toenails. We previously reported that five genes are mutated in CSS, all of which encode subunits the switch/sucrose non-fermenting (SWI/SNF) ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling complex: SMARCB1, SMARCA4, SMARCE1, ARID1A, ARID1B. In this study, we examined 49 newly recruited CSS-suspected...
