プロフィール

私は筋萎縮性側索硬化症(ALS)をはじめとした神経変性疾患や筋疾患の病態解明を疾患特異的なiPS細胞やモデル動物を利用して進め、さらにその治療法の開発に取り組んでおります。東北大学神経内科では多発性硬化症、視神経脊髄炎などの神経免疫疾患やパーキンソン病などの神経変性疾患の病態解明進めると共に、ALSに対するHGFおよび遠位型ミオパチーに対するアセノイラミン酸の治療法開発を医師主導治験として進めてきました。遠位型ミオパチー(GNEミオパチー)に対するアセノイラミン酸は2024年に製造販売承認されました。
脳神経内科では現在は治療が困難と思われている疾患においても、次々に新しい治療法が実用化されています。脳神経内科医であれば、認知症や脳卒中などのcommon diseaseを診ることは当然ですが、それに加えて、ALSや筋ジストロフィーなどの希少疾患に自信を持って対応できる力量を持ちたいと考えています。神経学的診察等の技術がある限り、たとえ人工知能(AI)が診療に導入されたとしても私たちの立場は揺るがないと思います。その一方で、今後益々需要が増える脳神経内科医が不足していることは明らかです。特に東北地方における医師不足、中でも脳神経内科医の不足は顕著であり、一人でも多くの脳神経内科医を増やしたい、というのが私の一番の目標です。

    Sporadic late-onset nemaline myopathy (SLONM) is a rare acquired myopathy. Herein, we report a rare case of co-occurring SLONM, indolent adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL), and Sjögren's syndrome (SS) in a 60-year-old woman who was a human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) carrier. She presented with sub-acute proximal muscle weakness and chest erythema. Muscle biopsy revealed perivascular inflammation and accumulation of nemaline bodies in the atrophic fibers. Skin biopsy indicated indolent ATL. Analysis of specific antibodies and salivary gland biopsy led to a SS diagnosis. CD4-positive T cells expressing FoxP3 and CCR4, which constitute an HTLV-1-infected cell signature, were observed in all three tissues. Her muscular and cutaneous symptoms responded well to steroids. This case suggests a potential link between HTLV-1 latent infection and reactivation and SLONM development and progression. We review the clinicopathological features of SLONM across various etiologies, providing valuable insights into this rare condition.

    INTRODUCTION/AIMS: Edaravone intravenous (IV) and oral suspension have been shown to have similar pharmacokinetics, safety, and slowing of functional decline in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Study MT-1186-A01 indicated that edaravone oral suspension was well-tolerated over 48 weeks, with no new safety concerns identified relative to existing safety data of IV edaravone, including Study MCI186-19. The aim of this study was to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of edaravone oral suspension in patients with ALS. METHODS: Study MT-1186-A03 (NCT04577404) was a phase 3, open-label, multi-center, extension study that evaluated the long-term safety of edaravone oral suspension over an additional 96 weeks in patients with ALS who have completed the initial 48 weeks of Study MT-1186-A01, for a total of up to 144 weeks of treatment. Patients received a 105-mg dose of edaravone administered in treatment cycles identical to the approved edaravone on/off dosing schedule. Patients had definite, probable, probable-laboratory-supported, or possible ALS. RESULTS: In Study MT-1186-A03, edaravone oral suspension was well tolerated with no new safety concerns. The most common treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were fall, muscular weakness, dyspnea, constipation, and dysphagia. These TEAEs were consistent with the safety profile for edaravone from previous clinical trials. DISCUSSION: These results help establish the long-term safety and tolerability profile of edaravone oral suspension.

    INTRODUCTION/AIMS: An On/Off dosing regimen of intravenous (IV) edaravone and edaravone oral suspension is approved in the US for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Placebo-controlled clinical trials showed IV edaravone slows the rate of physical functional decline. This study evaluated whether investigational daily dosing displayed superior efficacy vs. approved on/off dosing of edaravone oral suspension, and assessed safety and tolerability, over 48 weeks in patients with ALS. METHODS: Study MT-1186-A02 (NCT04569084) was a multicenter, phase 3b, double-blind, parallel group, superiority study that randomized patients to edaravone oral suspension (105-mg dose) administered Once Daily or the same edaravone oral suspension dose administered according to the approved On/Off regimen including placebo to mimic daily drug dosing. Patients had definite or probable ALS, baseline forced vital capacity ≥ 70%, and baseline disease duration ≤ 2 years. The primary endpoint was a combined assessment of function and survival (CAFS) at week 48, which included change in ALS Functional Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R) and time to death. RESULTS: CAFS at week 48 indicated Once Daily dosing did not show a statistically significant difference vs. approved on/off dosing (p = 0.777). Both dosing regimens provided comparable change from baseline ALSFRS-R total score to week 48 (least squares mean difference: 0.27 [95% CI -1.43 to 1.97]). Edaravone oral suspension was well tolerated, and no new safety concerns were identified in either group. DISCUSSION: Daily edaravone oral suspension did not show superiority and had equivalent safety and tolerability vs. the approved On/Off regimen, reinforcing the appropriateness of the approved dosing regimen.

    PURPOSE: This study aimed to integrate the findings of previous studies to clarify the predictive value of the polygenic risk score (PRS) for epilepsy. METHODS: The MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL databases were systematically searched for studies investigating PRS in epilepsy. Additionally, a meta-analysis was performed using random-effects models of studies that included PRS calculations using similar methodologies. The main outcome was the odds ratio (OR) for developing epilepsy based on the generalized or focal epilepsy PRS. The risk of bias (Q-Genie tool) and heterogeneity between the studies were also assessed. RESULTS: Overall, 585 records were retrieved on April 27, 2024. Eleven studies were included in this systematic review. Most studies were conducted on cohorts with European ancestry. The risk of developing epilepsy increased with a higher PRS, which was more pronounced in patients with generalized epilepsy. The total Q-Genie tool score of the included studies was 50.9 (good quality: >45). The meta-analysis included two studies and found that the ORs for generalized epilepsy were 2.18 (95 % confidence interval [CI] 1.91-2.48), 2.65 (95 % CI 2.07-3.39), and 4.62 (95 % CI 3.45-6.20) for the top 20 %, 5 %, and 0.5 % of the PRS distribution, respectively; the respective ORs for focal epilepsy were 1.19 (95 % CI 0.84-1.67), 1.40 (95 % CI 1.28-1.52), and 1.69 (95 % CI 1.27-2.24). Significant heterogeneity was found only in the top 20 % of PRS cases for focal epilepsy (I2 = 97.0 %; Q test p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: The PRS could be an effective tool for predicting development of epilepsy.

    Abstract Startle‐induced seizure is a rare type of reflex seizure triggered by unexpected sensory stimuli that often occurs in children with early acquired cerebral lesions or brain malformations. We report a unique case of adult‐onset epilepsy with startle‐induced seizures. A 24‐year‐old woman had suffered high fever and focal to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures. A diagnosis of febrile infection‐related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) was made based on the febrile infection occurring 7 days to 24 h before the onset of status epilepticus, which met all criteria for cryptogenic new‐onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) according to the cryptogenic NORSE score. Immunotherapy and several antiseizure medications resulted in transient resolution of the seizures. Four months later, she experienced startle‐induced seizures triggered by unexpected stimuli, such as auditory, visual, or unexpected events, and manifesting as initial tachycardia followed by right ear deafness, right hemifacial dysesthesia, eye deviation to the right, and tonic–clonic convulsions. Ictal electroencephalography revealed left temporal initial rhythmic delta activity, followed by rhythmic theta activity. The patient was diagnosed with startle epilepsy associated with FIRES and continued to receive anti‐seizure medications. Claustrum‐insular‐operculum lesions may have been the epileptic focus in this case, in contrast to previous cases of epilepsy with startle‐induced seizures originating in a frontoparietal network. This case indicates a new category of adult‐onset post‐FIRES epilepsy with startle‐induced seizures.

    To clarify T-cell responses in myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-associated disease (MOGAD), we cultured the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 24 patients with MOGAD and 20 with aquaporin-4 (AQP4) antibody-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD), and those of 17 healthy controls (HCs), in the presence of fourteen MOG peptides covering the full-length MOG, five AQP4 peptides, two myelin basic protein peptides, or two proteolipid protein peptides. Then, we measured T-cell activation markers, such as cell surface CD69 and the intracellular production of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interferon-γ in CD4-positive T-cells, with a flow cytometer. The expression of CD69 in response to MOG p16-40 and MOG p181-205 was significantly higher (Stimulation Index > 2) in MOGAD than in HCs. Also, CD69 for AQP4 p21-40, AQP4 p211-230, and MOG p166-190 were significantly increased in NMOSD than in HCs. Intracellular GM-CSF production responding to MOG p16-40 was significantly higher in MOGAD than in HCs (p < 0.05), although intracellular interferon-γ was not elevated. None of the responses to the other peptides were different between the groups. The present study showed subtle CD4-positive T-cell activation elicited by some MOG peptides alone in patients with MOGAD. Further studies of cytokines or other stimulation and alternative assay markers and metrics are needed to delineate the immunopathological roles of T-cells in MOGAD.

    INTRODUCTION: Mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) patients often have myositis, however, myopathological and clinical data for MCTD are limited. Recent reports have shown that the pathology of MCTD myositis resembles that of immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM), whereas earlier reports described perifascicular atrophy or inflammatory infiltrates predominantly in the perivascular region in MCTD myositis. We aim to describe the clinical and myopathological features of MCTD myositis. METHODS: We analyzed the clinical and myopathological findings of nine myositis patients with U1-RNP antibodies who fulfilled the diagnostic criteria for MCTD. RESULTS: Eight patients had muscle weakness in the proximal extremities, and overall, six patients had atypical weakness in the face, neck, wrist, or fingers. Four of those patients required additional intensive treatment (intravenous immunoglobulin or methylprednisolone). Therapeutic responses were consistently favorable overall, and there were no deaths during the observation period. In biopsied muscle specimens, common findings were mild myogenic change, increased necrotic and regenerating fibers, and inflammatory infiltrates predominating in the perivascular region. Two specimens were classified into the spectrum of dermatomyositis (DM); the remaining seven specimens, which had a smaller number of necrotic fibers and nonspecific infiltration, were unclassifiable. DISCUSSION: Patients with MCTD myositis often exhibit an axial or atypical distribution of muscle weakness, which may require intensive therapy. Histological study demonstrates the heterogeneity of myopathology of MCTD myositis and suggests that DM and underlying vasculopathy might be present in these patients.

    GNE myopathy is an autosomal recessive hereditary muscle disorder that has the following clinical characteristics: develops in early adulthood, gradually progresses from the distal muscles, and is relatively sparing of quadriceps until the advanced stages of the disease. With further progression, patients become non-ambulatory and need a wheelchair. There is growing concern about extra-muscular presentations such as thrombocytopenia, respiratory dysfunction, and sleep apnea syndrome. Pathologically, rimmed vacuoles and tubulofilamentous inclusions are observed in affected muscles. The cause of the disease is thought to be a sialic acid deficiency due to mutations of the GNE gene required for in vivo sialic acid biosynthesis. Sialic acid supplementation to a presymptomatic GNE myopathy mouse model was effective in preventing the development of the disease. Several clinical studies have been conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sialic acid supplementation in humans. Based on the favorable results of these studies, an extended-release aceneuramic acid formulation was approved for treatment of GNE myopathy in Japan in March 2024. It is anticipated that it will be a significant step in the development of an effective treatment for GNE myopathy and other ultra-orphan diseases.

    The tRNA epitranscriptome has been recognized as an important player in mRNA translation regulation. Our knowledge of the role of the tRNA epitranscriptome in fine-tuning translation via codon decoding at tissue or cell levels remains incomplete. We analyzed tRNA expression and modifications as well as codon optimality across seven mouse tissues. Our analysis revealed distinct enrichment patterns of tRNA modifications in different tissues. Queuosine (Q) tRNA modification was most enriched in the brain compared to other tissues, while mitochondrial tRNA modifications and tRNA expression were highest in the heart. Using this observation, we synthesized, and delivered in vivo, codon-mutated EGFP for Q-codons, where the C-ending Q-codons were replaced with U-ending codons. The protein levels of mutant EGFP were downregulated in liver, which is poor in Q, while in brain EGFP, levels did not change. These data show that understanding tRNA modification enrichments across tissues is not only essential for understanding codon decoding and bias but can also be utilized for optimizing gene and mRNA therapeutics to be more tissue-, cell-, or condition-specific.

    This study introduces a novel method for rapidly and efficiently inducing human spinal lower motor neurons (LMNs) from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to eventually elucidate the pathomechanisms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and facilitate drug screening. Previous methods were limited by low induction efficiency, poor LMN purity, or labor-intensive induction and evaluation processes. Our protocol overcomes these challenges, achieving around 80% induction efficiency within just two weeks by combining a small molecule-based approach with transcription factor transduction. Moreover, to exclude non-LMN cells from the analysis, we utilized time-lapse microscopy and machine learning to analyze the morphology and viability of iPSC-derived LMNs on a single-cell basis, establishing an effective pathophysiological evaluation system. This rapid, efficient, and streamlined protocol, along with our single-cell-based evaluation method, enables large-scale analysis and drug screening using iPSC-derived motor neurons.

    BACKGROUND: Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), a central nervous system inflammatory disease associated with aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin G (AQP4-IgG), is conventionally treated with oral steroids and immunosuppressants (IS) in Japan. Several biologics which show great efficacy in the clinical trials have been developed recently. However, studies on their efficacy, especially those comparing them with conventional treatments in real-world situations are lacking. OBJECTIVE: Here, we conducted a single-center retrospective cohort study in Japan comparing the efficacy of biologics, over conventional drugs, in treating AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD. METHODS: We extracted the medical history of patients with AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD who visited the Tohoku University Hospital between 2000 and 2023, from the hospital patient database. All patients were diagnosed according to the international consensus diagnostic criteria for NMOSD 2015. We then classified the disease duration of each patient into four periods based on their prescription history as: no-treatment, prednisolone monotherapy (PSL-mono), immunosuppressants (IS) treatment, and biologics (Bio) treatment. Subsequently, the efficacy of Bio treatment, over the conventional treatment, in alleviating AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD was estimated. We used univariate Poisson regression analysis to compare the annualized relapse rate (ARR), log-rank test for the first attack, and the hazard ratios (HR)-calculated using multivariate Andersen-Gill model for recurrent attacks-of the Bio and conventional treatment period groups. The safety of each treatment period group was assessed by comparing infection and mortality rates. RESULTS: A total of 109 patients (92 % females) met the eligibility criteria of the study. We could extract a total of 1,283 patient years with 289 NMOSD attacks from their medical history data. The mean ARR of no-treatment group was 0.60. Most of the Bio group initially received combined treatments with PSL or IS. The mean ARR of the Bio group was 0.01 [95 % confidence interval (CI): 0.002 to 0.08], which was significantly lower than the PSL-mono group (0.16, 95 % CI: 0.13 to 0.19, p = 0.03) and the IS group (0.17, 95 % CI: 0.13 to 0.22, p = 0.02). In the survival analysis, the Bio group showed a significantly prolonged attack-free period than the other groups, suggesting its potential in reducing 79 % of relapses in the no-treatment group, 33 % in the PSL-mono group, and 31 % in the IS group during the two years. The multivariate analysis using Andersen-Gill model showed that the Bio group had significantly lower HR (log HR -2.75, 95 % CI: -4.71 to -0.8, p = 0.006), relative to the PSL-mono group. Importantly, the patients needed significantly lower PSL (median 5 mg/day) during the Bio group treatment period than in the PSL-mono group treatment period (median 10 mg/day). Further, the concomitant use of IS could be stopped safely in all patients who were on Bio treatment. All treatment period groups showed similar safety profiles. CONCLUSION: In patients with AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD, biologics demonstrated more efficacy than conventional PSL and/or IS treatment, without increasing infection and mortality rates.

    BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult-onset progressive neurodegenerative disease. Approximately 10% of ALS cases are familial, and more than 20 causative genes have been identified. As we have previously reported, SOD1 variants are the most common causes of familial ALS in Japan. Because antisense oligonucleotides for SOD1-linked ALS are being used in practical applications, the types of variants and the clinical features of patients need to be updated. METHODS: We consecutively recruited 160 families with familial ALS in Japan. We performed genetic analyses, focusing on SOD1-linked ALS as the most common in our cohort, updated their genotypes, and characterized clinical phenotypes. RESULTS: A total of 26 SOD1 variants in 56 patients and 49 families (30.6%) were collected, with the 3 most common (p.His47Arg [the conventional numbering; H46R], p.Leu127Ser [L126S], p.Asn87Ser [N86S]) accounting for 38.8% of all families. We also identified 2 novel variants (p.Ile36Phe [I35F] and p.Asn132Argfs*3 [N131Rfs*3]). The mean age at onset was 48.9 ± 12.2 (mean ± SD) years for all patients with SOD1-linked ALS. Lower limb onset comprised 70% of cases. The mean disease duration was 64.7 ± 82 months, and the median survival was 71.5 months. Some variants led to a relatively homogeneous phenotype, although clinical characteristics differed among types of variants and families. Patients with p.His47Arg (H46R) showed slower progression with lower limb onset and a predominance of lower motor neuron involvement. The p.Leu127Ser (L126S) variant led to varying degrees of progression in heterozygous or homozygous states and presented incomplete penetrance. Intrafamilial phenotypic differences were observed in families carrying p.Asn87Ser (N86S). Four variants (p.Cys7Gly [C6G], p.His44Arg [H43R], p.Leu85Val [L84V], and p.Cys147Arg [C146R]) were found to be associated with rapid disease progression. DISCUSSION: The genetic basis of familial ALS, at least for SOD1 variants, still differed by geographic and ethnic background. Understanding these clinical profiles will help optimize evaluation in targeted gene therapy worldwide and benefit efficient diagnosis, leading to precise application in clinical practice.

    BACKGROUND: The copy number status (CNS) of the survival motor neuron (SMN) gene may influence the risk and prognosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and lower motor neuron diseases (LMND) other than spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). However, previous studies of this association, mainly from Europe, have yielded controversial results, suggesting possible regional differences. Here, we investigated the effect of the SMN gene in Japanese patients with ALS and LMND. METHODS: We examined the SMN copy numbers and clinical histories of 487 Japanese patients with sporadic ALS (281 men; mean age at onset 61.5 years), 50 with adult LMND (50 men; mean age at onset 58.4 years) and 399 Japanese controls (171 men; mean age 62.2 years). Patients with pathogenic mutations in ALS-causing genes were excluded. SMN1 and SMN2 copy numbers were determined using the droplet digital polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS: The frequency of a copy number of one for the SMN2 gene was higher in patients with ALS (38.0%) than in healthy controls (30.8%) (odds ratio (OR) = 1.37, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.04-1.82, p < 0.05). The SMN2 copy number affected the survival time of patients with ALS (median time: 0 copies, 34 months; 1 copy, 39 months; 2 copies, 44 months; 3 copies, 54 months; log-rank test, p < 0.05). Cox regression analysis revealed that the SMN2 copy number was associated with increased mortality (hazard ratio = 0.84, 95% CI = 0.72-0.98, p < 0.05). Also, null SMN2 cases were significantly more frequent in the LMND group (12.0%) than in the control group (4.8%) (OR = 2.73, 95% CI = 1.06-6.98, p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that SMN2 copy number reduction may adversely affect the onset and prognosis of MND, including ALS and LMND, in Japanese.

    BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder traditionally diagnosed based on the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria in 1998. Recently, Hermann et al. proposed updated diagnostic criteria incorporating advanced biomarkers to enhance early detection of sCJD. This study aimed to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of Hermann's criteria compared with those of the WHO criteria in a large cohort of patients suspected of prion disease in Japan. METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, we examined the new criteria using data of 2004 patients with suspected prion disease registered with the Japanese Prion Disease Surveillance (JPDS) between January 2009 and May 2023. Patients with genetic or acquired prion diseases or incomplete data necessary for the diagnostic criteria were excluded, resulting in 786 eligible cases. The sensitivity and specificity of the WHO and Hermann's criteria were calculated by comparing diagnoses with those made by the JPDS Committee. RESULTS: Of the 786 included cases, Hermann's criteria helped identify 572 probable cases compared with 448 by the WHO criteria. The sensitivity and specificity of the WHO criteria were 96.4% and 96.6%, respectively. Hermann's criteria demonstrated a sensitivity of 99.3% and a specificity of 95.2%, indicating higher sensitivity but slightly lower specificity. Fifty-five cases were classified as "definite" by both criteria. CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that Hermann's criteria could offer improved sensitivity for detecting sCJD, potentially reducing diagnostic oversight. However, caution is advised in clinical practice to avoid misdiagnosis, particularly in treatable neurological diseases, by ensuring thorough exclusion of other potential conditions.

    Abstract Advanced pathological and genetic approaches have revealed that mutations in fused in sarcoma/translated in liposarcoma (FUS/TLS), which is pivotal for DNA repair, alternative splicing, translation and RNA transport, cause familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The generation of suitable animal models for ALS is essential for understanding its pathogenesis and developing therapies. Therefore, we used CRISPR-Cas9 to generate FUS-ALS mutation in the non-classical nuclear localization signal (NLS), H517D (mouse position: H509D) and genome-edited mice. Fus WT/H509D mice showed progressive motor impairment (accelerating rotarod and DigiGait system) with age, which was associated with the loss of motor neurons and disruption of the nuclear lamina and nucleoporins and DNA damage in spinal cord motor neurons. We confirmed the validity of our model by showing that nuclear lamina and nucleoporin disruption were observed in lower motor neurons differentiated from patient-derived human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC-LMNs) with FUS-H517D and in the post-mortem spinal cord of patients with ALS. RNA sequence analysis revealed that most nuclear lamina and nucleoporin-linking genes were significantly decreased in FUS-H517D hiPSC-LMNs. This evidence suggests that disruption of the nuclear lamina and nucleoporins is crucial for ALS pathomechanisms. Combined with patient-derived hiPSC-LMNs and autopsy samples, this mouse model might provide a more reliable understanding of ALS pathogenesis and might aid in the development of therapeutic strategies.

    OBJECTIVES: In myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein IgG-associated disease (MOGAD) and aquaporin-4 IgG+ neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4+NMOSD), the autoantibodies are mainly composed of IgG1, and complement-dependent cytotoxicity is a primary pathomechanism in AQP4+NMOSD. We aimed to evaluate the CSF complement activation in MOGAD. METHODS: CSF-C3a, CSF-C4a, CSF-C5a, and CSF-C5b-9 levels during the acute phase before treatment in patients with MOGAD (n = 12), AQP4+NMOSD (n = 11), multiple sclerosis (MS) (n = 5), and noninflammatory neurologic disease (n = 2) were measured. RESULTS: CSF-C3a and CSF-C5a levels were significantly higher in MOGAD (mean ± SD, 5,629 ± 1,079 pg/mL and 2,930 ± 435.8 pg/mL) and AQP4+NMOSD (6,017 ± 3,937 pg/mL and 2,544 ± 1,231 pg/mL) than in MS (1,507 ± 1,286 pg/mL and 193.8 ± 0.53 pg/mL). CSF-C3a, CSF-C4a, and CSF-C5a did not differ between MOGAD and AQP4+NMOSD while CSF-C5b-9 (membrane attack complex, MAC) levels were significantly lower in MOGAD (17.4 ± 27.9 ng/mL) than in AQP4+NMOSD (62.5 ± 45.1 ng/mL, p = 0.0019). Patients with MOGAD with severer attacks (Expanded Disability Status Scale [EDSS] ≥ 3.5) had higher C5b-9 levels (34.0 ± 38.4 ng/m) than those with milder attacks (EDSS ≤3.0, 0.9 ± 0.7 ng/mL, p = 0.044). DISCUSSION: The complement pathway is activated in both MOGAD and AQP4+NMOSD, but MAC formation is lower in MOGAD, particularly in those with mild attacks, than in AQP4+NMOSD. These findings may have pathogenetic and therapeutic implications in MOGAD.

    Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is characterized by progressive postural instability, falls, and supranuclear vertical gaze abnormalities. In this report, we present the case of a 71-year-old woman with dopa-responsive rest tremor followed by tachyphemia and postural instability. She initially presented with dopa-responsive slowness and tremor in the right hand. Two years later, she developed speech difficulties (tachyphemia) and a propensity for falls. Based on the diagnostic criteria for PSP, the patient was diagnosed with probable PSP-RS. The clinical manifestations observed in our patient are unique and are considered important for illustrating a broad spectrum of PSP syndrome.

    BACKGROUND: Inclusion body myositis (IBM) is a progressive myopathy occurring in patients over 45 years of age, with heterogeneous and variable clinical features. This study aimed to determine the influence of autoantibodies, gender, and age of onset on the clinical features of IBM. METHODS: Medical records and muscle histology findings of 570 participants with suspected IBM were reviewed. Various characteristics of patients who met the 2011 ENMC IBM diagnostic criteria were compared based on the presence of anti-cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase 1 A (cN1A) autoantibodies, gender, age of onset, and disease duration. RESULTS: Of the 353 patients who met the criteria, 41.6% were female. The mean age at onset was 64.6 ± 9.3 years, and the mean duration from onset to diagnosis was 5.7 ± 4.7 years. 196 of the 353 patients (55.5%) were positive for anti-cN1A autoantibodies and 157 were negative. Logistic regression showed that patients with anti-cN1A autoantibodies had a higher frequency of finger flexion weakness. Multiple regression showed that patients with later age of onset had shorter disease duration, lower BMI, and lower serum CK levels. Male patients had a higher frequency of onset with finger weakness and female patients had a lower BMI. CONCLUSION: Autoantibodies, gender, age of onset, and disease duration may influence the clinical presentation of IBM, highlighting the need for a precision medicine approach that considers these factors along with the underlying mechanisms of the disease.

    Conventional rodent neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) models using patient-derived immunoglobulin G (IgG) are potentially affected by the differences between the human and rodent aquaporin-4 (AQP4) extracellular domains (ECDs). We hypothesized that the humanization of AQP4 ECDs would make the rodent model lesions closer to human NMOSD pathology. Humanized-AQP4-expressing (hAQP4) rats were generated using genome-editing technology, and the human AQP4-specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) or six patient-derived IgGs were introduced intraperitoneally into hAQP4 rats and wild-type Lewis (WT) rats after immunization with myelin basic protein and complete Freund's adjuvant. Human AQP4-specific mAb induced astrocyte loss lesions specifically in hAQP4 rats. The patient-derived IgGs also induced NMOSD-like tissue-destructive lesions with AQP4 loss, demyelination, axonal swelling, complement deposition, and marked neutrophil and macrophage/microglia infiltration in hAQP4 rats; however, the difference in AQP4 loss lesion size and infiltrating cells was not significant between hAQP4 and WT rats. The patient-derived IgGs bound to both human and rat AQP4 M23, suggesting their binding to the shared region of human and rat AQP4 ECDs. Anti-AQP4 titers positively correlated with AQP4 loss lesion size and neutrophil and macrophage/microglia infiltration. Considering that patient-derived IgGs vary in binding sites and affinities and some of them may not bind to rodent AQP4, our hAQP4 rat is expected to reproduce NMOSD-like pathology more accurately than WT rats.

    PURPOSE: Due to the indistinguishable clinical features of corticobasal syndrome (CBS), the antemortem differentiation between corticobasal degeneration (CBD) and its mimics remains challenging. However, the utility of conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the diagnosis of CBD has not been sufficiently evaluated. This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic performance of conventional MRI findings in differentiating pathologically confirmed CBD from its mimics. METHODS: Semiquantitative visual rating scales were employed to assess the degree and distribution of atrophy and asymmetry on conventional T1-weighted and T2-weighted images. Additionally, subcortical white matter hyperintensity (SWMH) on fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images were visually evaluated. RESULTS: In addition to 19 patients with CBD, 16 with CBD mimics (progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP): 9, Alzheimer's disease (AD): 4, dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB): 1, frontotemporal lobar degeneration with TAR DNA-binding protein of 43 kDa(FTLD-TDP): 1, and globular glial tauopathy (GGT): 1) were investigated. Compared with the CBD group, the PSP-CBS subgroup showed severe midbrain atrophy without SWMH. The non-PSP-CBS subgroup, comprising patients with AD, DLB, FTLD-TDP, and GGT, showed severe temporal atrophy with widespread asymmetry, especially in the temporal lobes. In addition to over half of the patients with CBD, two with FTLD-TDP and GGT showed SWMH, respectively. CONCLUSION: This study elucidates the distinct structural changes between the CBD and its mimics based on visual rating scales. The evaluation of atrophic distribution and SWMH may serve as imaging biomarkers of conventional MRI for detecting background pathologies.

    Since the identification of vacuolar protein sorting (VPS) 35, as a causative molecule for familial Parkinson's disease (PD), retromer-mediated endosomal machinery has been a rising factor in the pathogenesis of the disease. The retromer complex cooperates with sorting nexin (SNX) dimer and DNAJC13, another causal molecule in PD, to transport cargoes from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network, and is also involved in mitochondrial dynamics and autophagy. Retromer dysfunction may induce neuronal death leading to PD via several biological cascades, including misfolded, insoluble α-synuclein (aS) accumulation and mitochondrial dysfunction; however, the detailed mechanisms remain poorly understood. In this study, we showed that the stagnation of retromer-mediated retrograde transport consistently occurs in different PD-mimetic conditions, i.e., overexpression of PD-linked mutant DNAJC13, excess aS induction, or toxin-induced mitochondrial dysfunction. Mechanistically, DNAJC13 was found to be involved in clathrin-dependent retromer transport as a functional modulator of SNX1 together with heat shock cognate 70 kDa protein (Hsc70), which was controlled by the binding and dissociation of DNAJC13 and SNX1 in an Hsc70 activity-dependent manner. In addition, excess amount of aS decreased the interaction between SNX1 and VPS35, the core component of retromer. Furthermore, R33, a pharmacological retromer chaperone, reduced insoluble aS and mitigated rotenone-induced neuronal apoptosis. These findings suggest that retrograde transport regulated by SNX1-retromer may be profoundly involved in the pathogenesis of PD and is a potential target for disease-modifying therapy for the disease.

    BACKGROUND: DYT-KMT2B, also known as DYT28, is a childhood-onset hereditary dystonia caused by KMT2B mutation. The pathogenesis of DYT-KMT2B involves haploinsufficiency of KMT2B, an enzyme that catalyzes specific histone methylation (H3K4me3). Dysmorphic features in patients with DYT-KMT2B suggest that KMT2B dysfunction may extend beyond the neuronal system. Therefore, valuable diagnostic insights may be obtained from readily available tissue samples. OBJECTIVES: To explore the altered H3K4me3 levels in non-neural tissue of DYT-KMT2B patients. METHODS: A database analysis was performed to determine in which parts of the body and in which cells KMT2B is highly expressed. Twelve clinically and genetically diagnosed patients with DYT-KMT2B and 12 control subjects participated in this study. Oral mucosa-derived purified histone proteins were analyzed using Western blotting with anti-H3K4me3 and anti-H4 antibodies. RESULTS: Higher expression of KMT2B was observed in oral keratinocytes and gingival fibroblasts, constituting the oral mucosa. In oral mucosa analyses, DYT-KMT2B cases exhibited markedly reduced H3K4me3 levels compared with the controls. Using a cutoff window of 0.90-0.98, the H3K4me3/H4 expression ratio was able to distinguish patient groups. CONCLUSIONS: Oral mucosa H3K4me3 analysis is currently not sufficient as a diagnostic tool for DYT-KMT2B, but has the advantage for screening test since it is a non-invasive means.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult-onset intractable motor neuron disease characterized by selective degeneration of cortical neurons in the frontotemporal lobe and motor neurons in the brainstem and spinal cord. Impairment of these neural networks causes progressive muscle atrophy and weakness that spreads throughout the body, resulting in life-threatening bulbar palsy and respiratory muscle paralysis. However, no therapeutic strategy has yet been established to halt ALS progression. Although evidence for clinical practice in ALS remains insufficient, novel research findings have steadily accumulated in recent years. To provide updated evidence-based or expert consensus recommendations for the diagnosis and management of ALS, the ALS Clinical Practice Guideline Development Committee, approved by the Japanese Society of Neurology, revised and published the Japanese clinical practice guidelines for the management of ALS in 2023. In this guideline, disease-modifying therapies that have accumulated evidence from randomized controlled trials were defined as "Clinical Questions," in which the level of evidence was determined by systematic reviews. In contrast, "Questions and Answers" were defined as issues of clinically important but insufficient evidence, according to reports of a small number of cases, observational studies, and expert opinions. Based on a literature search performed in February 2022, recommendations were reached by consensus, determined by an independent panel, reviewed by external reviewers, and submitted for public comments by Japanese Society of Neurology members before publication. In this article, we summarize the revised Japanese guidelines for ALS, highlighting the regional and cultural diversity of care processes and decision-making. The guidelines cover a broad range of essential topics such as etiology, diagnostic criteria, disease monitoring and treatments, management of symptoms, respiration, rehabilitation, nutrition, metabolism, patient instructions, and various types of care support. We believe that this summary will help improve the daily clinical practice for individuals living with ALS and their caregivers.

    Hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsy (HNPP) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by heteroplasmic deletion of the peripheral myelin protein 22 (PMP22) gene. HNPP typically presents with clinical features such as peroneal nerve palsy or cubital tunnel syndrome, which are caused by mechanical compression. Diagnosing cases where neuropathy is absent at the pressure site can be challenging. This is a case study of an 18-year-old man who underwent surgery on the left side of his neck over 10 years ago to remove lymphadenopathy. Following the surgery, he experienced recurrent weakness but only sought medical attention when muscle weakness persisted for longer than a week postoperatively. Upon admission, the patient exhibited neurological symptoms consistent with C5 neuropathy, mainly affecting the deltoid muscles. No serological abnormalities were found to be associated with neuropathy. Neither magnetic resonance imaging nor computed tomography scans detected any lesions around the C5 nerve root. The posture during sleep was believed to cause excessive extension of the C5 nerve root, leading to the assumption that there was some vulnerability in the nerve. A transient sensory loss in the area innervated by the ulnar nerve prompted us to examine the fluorescence in situ hybridization study on the blood sample, which revealed a deletion of the PMP22 gene. The patient was diagnosed with HNPP and was advised to avoid risky postures. Following the implementation of these lifestyle changes, he did not experience any further weakness in his shoulders.

    This report describes an adult case of Poretti-Boltshauser syndrome (PTBHS) and with novel variants of LAMA1. A 65-year-old Japanese woman with cerebellar malformation identified during a medical checkup was referred to our hospital. Subsequently, neurological examination, brain imaging, and genetic investigation via whole-exome sequencing were performed. The patient presented with mild cerebellar ataxia and intellectual disability. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed cerebellar dysplasia and cysts and an absence of molar tooth sign. Genetic analysis revealed a novel homozygous variant of c.1711_1712del in LAMA1 (NM_005559.4). Most cases with PTBHS are reported in pediatric patients; however, our patient expressed a mild phenotype and was undiagnosed until her 60 s. These findings suggest that PTBHS should be considered in not only pediatric cerebellar dysplasia but also adult cerebellar ataxia with mild presentation.

    Cerebellar ataxia, neuropathy, and vestibular areflexia syndrome (CANVAS) is an autosomal recessive multisystem neurologic disorder caused by biallelic intronic repeats in RFC1. Although the phenotype of CANVAS has been expanding via diagnostic case accumulation, there are scant pedigree analyses to reveal disease penetrance, intergenerational fluctuations in repeat length, or clinical phenomena (including heterozygous carriers). We identified biallelic RFC1 ACAGG expansions of 1000 ~ repeats in three affected siblings having sensorimotor neuronopathy with spinocerebellar atrophy initially presenting with painful muscle cramps and paroxysmal dry cough. They exhibit almost homogeneous clinical and histopathological features, indicating motor neuronopathy. Over 10 years of follow-up, painful intractable muscle cramps ascended from legs to trunks and hands, followed by amyotrophy and subsequent leg pyramidal signs. The disease course combined with the electrophysical and imagery data suggest initial and prolonged hyperexcitability and the ensuing spinal motor neuron loss, which may progress from the lumbar to the rostral anterior horns and later expand to the corticospinal tract. Genetically, heterozygous ACAGG expansions of similar length were transmitted in unaffected family members of three successive generations, and some of them experienced muscle cramps. Leukocyte telomere length assays revealed comparatively shorter telomeres in affected individuals. This comprehensive pedigree analysis demonstrated a non-anticipating ACAGG transmission and high penetrance of manifestations with a biallelic state, especially motor neuronopathy in which muscle cramps serve as a prodromal and disease progress marker. CANVAS and RFC1 spectrum disorder should be considered when diagnosing lower dominant motor neuron disease, idiopathic muscle cramps, or neuromuscular hyperexcitability syndromes.

    Proinflammatory cytokines, such as (IL: interleukin) IL-6 and IL-17A, and complement fixation are critical in the immunopathogenesis of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD). Blocking the IL-6 receptor or the C5 complement pathway reduces relapse risk. However, the role of interleukin (IL)-6 and complement in aquaporin-4 (AQP4) autoimmunity remains unclear. To investigate the role of the anti-AQP4 immunoglobulin (AQP4-IgG)/AQP4 immunocomplex on the induction and profile of ex vivo cytokine and surface marker expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) culture. Isolated PBMCs obtained from 18 patients with AQP4-IgG-seropositive-NMOSD (8 treatment-naive, 10 rituximab-treated) or ten healthy controls were cultured with AQP4-immunocomplex with or without complement. Changes in PBMC surface markers and cytokine expression were profiled using flow cytometry and ELISA. PBMCs derived from treatment-naive NMOSD patients stimulated with a complex mixture of serum complement proteins produced significant elevations of IL-17A and IL-6. Rituximab-treated patients also exhibited higher IL-6 but not IL-17A release. IL-6 and IL-17A elevations are not observed without complement. Co-stimulation of PBMCs with AQP4-IgG/AQP4 immunocomplex and complement prompts a Th17-biased response consistent with the inflammatory paradigm observed in NMOSD. A possible inflammation model is proposed via antigen-specific autoreactive peripheral blood cells, including NK/NKT cells.

    OBJECTIVE: Multisystem proteinopathy (MSP) is an inherited disorder in which protein aggregates with TAR DNA-binding protein of 43 kDa form in multiple organs. Mutations in VCP, HNRNPA2B1, HNRNPA1, SQSTM1, MATR3, and ANXA11 are causative for MSP. This study aimed to conduct a nationwide epidemiological survey based on the diagnostic criteria established by the Japan MSP study group. METHODS: We conducted a nationwide epidemiological survey by administering primary and secondary questionnaires among 6235 specialists of the Japanese Society of Neurology. RESULTS: In the primary survey, 47 patients with MSP were identified. In the secondary survey of 27 patients, inclusion body myopathy was the most common initial symptom (74.1%), followed by motor neuron disease (11.1%), frontotemporal dementia (FTD, 7.4%), and Paget's disease of bone (PDB, 7.4%), with no cases of parkinsonism. Inclusion body myopathy occurred most frequently during the entire course of the disease (81.5%), followed by motor neuron disease (25.9%), PDB (18.5%), FTD (14.8%), and parkinsonism (3.7%). Laboratory findings showed a high frequency of elevated serum creatine kinase levels and abnormalities on needle electromyography, muscle histology, brain magnetic resonance imaging, and perfusion single-photon emission computed tomography. INTERPRETATION: The low frequency of FTD and PDB may suggest that FTD and PDB may be widely underdiagnosed and undertreated in clinical practice.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a major neurodegenerative disease for which there is currently no curative treatment. The blood-brain barrier (BBB), multiple physiological functions formed by mainly specialized brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs), serves as a gatekeeper to protect the central nervous system (CNS) from harmful molecules in the blood and aberrant immune cell infiltration. The accumulation of evidence indicating that alterations in the peripheral milieu can contribute to neurodegeneration within the CNS suggests that the BBB may be a previously overlooked factor in the pathogenesis of ALS. Animal models suggest BBB breakdown may precede neurodegeneration and link BBB alteration to the disease progression or even onset. However, the lack of a useful patient-derived model hampers understanding the pathomechanisms of BBB dysfunction and the development of BBB-targeted therapies. In this study, we differentiated BMEC-like cells from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) derived from ALS patients to investigate BMEC functions in ALS patients. TARDBP N345K/+ carrying patient-derived BMEC-like cells exhibited increased permeability to small molecules due to loss of tight junction in the absence of neurodegeneration or neuroinflammation, highlighting that BMEC abnormalities in ALS are not merely secondary consequences of disease progression. Furthermore, they exhibited increased expression of cell surface adhesion molecules like ICAM-1 and VCAM-1, leading to enhanced immune cell adhesion. BMEC-like cells derived from hiPSCs with other types of TARDBP gene mutations (TARDBP K263E/K263E and TARDBP G295S/G295S) introduced by genome editing technology did not show such BMEC dysfunction compared to the isogenic control. Interestingly, transactive response DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) was mislocalized to cytoplasm in TARDBP N345K/+ carrying model. Wnt/β-catenin signaling was downregulated in the ALS patient (TARDBP N345K/+)-derived BMEC-like cells and its activation rescued the leaky barrier phenotype and settled down VCAM-1 expressions. These results indicate that TARDBP N345K/+ carrying model recapitulated BMEC abnormalities reported in brain samples of ALS patients. This novel patient-derived BMEC-like cell is useful for the further analysis of the involvement of vascular barrier dysfunctions in the pathogenesis of ALS and for promoting therapeutic drug discovery targeting BMEC.

    Sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) is a muscle disease in older people and is characterized by inflammatory cell invasion into intact muscle fibers and rimmed vacuoles. The pathomechanism of sIBM is not fully elucidated yet, and controversy exists as to whether sIBM is a primary autoimmune disease or a degenerative muscle disease with secondary inflammation. Previously, we established a method of collecting CD56-positive myoblasts from human skeletal muscle biopsy samples. We hypothesized that the myoblasts derived from these patients are useful to see the cell-autonomous pathomechanism of sIBM. With these resources, myoblasts were differentiated into myotubes, and the expression profiles of cell-autonomous pathology of sIBM were analyzed. Myoblasts from three sIBM cases and six controls were differentiated into myotubes. In the RNA-sequencing analysis of these "myotube" samples, 104 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were found to be significantly upregulated by more than twofold in sIBM, and 13 DEGs were downregulated by less than twofold. For muscle biopsy samples, a comparative analysis was conducted to determine the extent to which "biopsy" and "myotube" samples differed. Fifty-three DEGs were extracted of which 32 (60%) had opposite directions of expression change (e.g., increased in biopsy vs decreased in myotube). Apolipoprotein E (apoE) and transmembrane protein 8C (TMEM8C or MYMK) were commonly upregulated in muscle biopsies and myotubes from sIBM. ApoE and myogenin protein levels were upregulated in sIBM. Given that enrichment analysis also captured changes in muscle contraction and development, the triggering of muscle atrophy signaling and abnormal muscle differentiation via MYMK or myogenin may be involved in the pathogenesis of sIBM. The presence of DEGs in sIBM suggests that the myotubes formed from sIBM-derived myoblasts revealed the existence of muscle cell-autonomous degeneration in sIBM. The catalog of DEGs will be an important resource for future studies on the pathogenesis of sIBM focusing on primary muscle degeneration.

    BACKGROUND: The real-world data evidences how establishment of neuromyelitis optica (NMO) disease concept and development disease modifying therapy affect the patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) and NMO are lacking. The aim of this study is to clarify the diachronic trend of the severity and admissions of patients with MS and NMO. METHODS: We retrospectively investigated the trends in admissions, treatments, and disabilities in the patients with MS and NMO using the Japanese administrative data between 2012 and 2017. RESULTS: We analyzed acute stage 9545 and 2035 admissions in each 6100 MS and 1555 NMO patients. The annual number of admission in MS significantly decreased in 6 years; however, those in NMO consistently increased. The patient proportion with lower disability was significantly increased in MS and NMO. These trends were especially observed in patients admitted to centralized hospitals with more active treatments, such as second-line disease modifying therapy for MS and plasmapheresis for NMO. Patients with NMO using DMT for MS diminished in 6 years. CONCLUSION: A gradual improvement of disability in patients with MS and NMO was observed, probably due to advanced treatments, increased NMO awareness, and decreased misdiagnosis, which seems to be the key for better prognosis in MS and NMO.

    OBJECTIVE: Multisystem proteinopathy type 3 (MSP3) is an inherited, pleiotropic degenerative disorder caused by a mutation in heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 (hnRNPA1), which can affect the muscle, bone, and/or nervous system. This study aimed to determine detailed histopathological features and transcriptomic profile of HNRNPA1-mutated skeletal muscles to reveal the core pathomechanism of hereditary inclusion body myopathy (hIBM), a predominant phenotype of MSP3. METHODS: Histopathological analyses and RNA sequencing of HNRNPA1-mutated skeletal muscles harboring a c.940G > A (p.D314N) mutation (NM_031157) were performed, and the results were compared with those of HNRNPA1-unlinked hIBM and control muscle tissues. RESULTS: RNA sequencing revealed aberrant alternative splicing events that predominantly occurred in myofibril components and mitochondrial respiratory complex. Enrichment analyses identified the nuclear pore complex (NPC) and nucleocytoplasmic transport as suppressed pathways. These two pathways were linked by the hub genes NUP50, NUP98, NUP153, NUP205, and RanBP2. In immunohistochemistry, these nucleoporin proteins (NUPs) were mislocalized to the cytoplasm and aggregated mostly with TAR DNA-binding protein 43 kDa and, to a lesser extent, with hnRNPA1. Based on ultrastructural observation, irregularly shaped myonuclei with deep invaginations were frequently observed in atrophic fibers, consistent with the disorganization of NPCs. Additionally, regarding the expression profiles of overall NUPs, reduced expression of NUP98, NUP153, and RanBP2 was shared with HNRNPA1-unlinked hIBMs. INTERPRETATION: The shared subset of altered NUPs in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), as demonstrated in prior research, HNRNPA1-mutated, and HNRNPA1-unlinked hIBM muscle tissues may provide evidence regarding the underlying common nuclear pore pathology of hIBM, ALS, and MSP.

    Abstract In recent years, there is growing evidence of associations between antibodies against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) and several phenotypes of acute inflammatory demyelinating diseases such as acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM), optic neuritis, brainstem, and cerebral cortical encephalitis, called MOG antibody associated disorders (MOGAD). Monophasic course is known in about half of cases especially in pediatric onset ADEM and optic neuritis, mainly in cases with transient positivity of MOG antibody. Pathological features of MOGAD are considered as acute demyelinating lesions with CD4 dominant cell infiltrations, the deposition of humoral immunity, perivascular inflammation and perivenous demyelination, which is distinct from multiple sclerosis. Now the diagnosis of MOGAD is based on the international panel criteria of MOGAD launched in 2023, which the diagnostic frameworks are three parts, including MOGAD‐specific clinical features, MOG antibody positivity, and the exclusion of other diseases. The prognosis of MOGAD patients is considered relatively mild, but the problem is refractory relapsing cases. For its prevention, there are no approved drugs, but oral tapering corticosteroids, immunosuppressants such as azathioprine and mycophenolic mofetil, rituximab, and the maintenance intravenous immunoglobulin are recommended, and now there are a few clinical trials of promising biological drugs already approved in other neurological disorders.

    α-Synuclein (αS) is a key molecule in the pathomechanism of Parkinson's disease. Most studies on αS to date have focused on its function in the neuronal cytosol, but its action in the nucleus has also been postulated. Indeed, several lines of evidence indicate that overexpressed αS leads to epigenomic alterations. To clarify the functional role of αS in the nucleus and its pathological significance, HEK293 cells constitutively expressing αS were used to screen for nuclear proteins that interact with αS by nanoscale liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry. Interactome analysis of the 229 identified nuclear proteins revealed that αS interacts with the BRG1-associated factor (BAF) complex, a family of multi-subunit chromatin remodelers important for neurodevelopment, and protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5). Subsequent transcriptomic analysis also suggested a functional link between αS and the BAF complex. Based on these results, we analyzed the effect of αS overexpression on the BAF complex in neuronally differentiated SH-SY5Y cells and found that induction of αS disturbed the BAF maturation process, leading to a global increase in symmetric demethylation of histone H4 on arginine 3 (H4R3me2s) via enhanced BAF-PRMT5 interaction. Chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing confirmed accumulated H4R3me2s methylation near the transcription start site of the neuronal cell adhesion molecule (NRCAM) gene, which has roles during neuronal differentiation. Transcriptional analyses confirmed the negative regulation of NRCAM by αS and PRMT5, which was reconfirmed by multiple datasets in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Taken together, these findings suggest that the enhanced binding of αS to the BAF complex and PRMT5 may cooperatively affect the neuronal differentiation process.

    The "odyssey plot" was used to visualize referral delays in epilepsy surgery. Participants were 36 patients (19 males; 13-67 years, median 27 years) with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis (HS) who underwent resection surgery. The "referral odyssey plot" included five clinical episodes: seizure onset (T1), first visits to a non-epileptologist (T2) and to an epileptologist (T3), first admission to our epilepsy monitoring unit (EMU) (T4), and resection surgery (T5). For each patient, we identified the first seizure type: the physician who first diagnosed focal aware seizure (FAS), focal impaired awareness seizure (FIAS), focal to bilateral tonic-clonic seizure (FBTCS), and radiologically suspected HS. Within the overall delay (T1-T5, median 18 years; interquartile range [IQR] 14), non-epileptologist's delay (T2-T3, 11.5 years; IQR 12.25) was far (p < 0.0001) longer than patient's (T1-T2, 0 year; IQR 2.25), epileptologist's (T3-T4, 1 year; IQR 4), or after-EMU delay (T4-T5, 1 year; IQR 1). FAS onset cases had significantly longer T1-T2 (N = 5, median 7 years; IQR 6) than FIAS (N = 22, 0 year; IQR 1, p < 0.005) or FBTCS onset cases (N = 9, 0 year; IQR 0, p < 0.001). FAS was correctly diagnosed first by non-epileptologists in 17.9%, by out-patient epileptologists in 35.7%, and at the EMU in 46.4%. FIAS was correctly diagnosed first by non-epileptologists in 94.4% and by out-patient epileptologists in 5.6%. Non-epileptologists diagnosed FBTCS in all cases. HS was diagnosed by non-epileptologists in 13.9%, by out-patient epileptologists in 47.2%, and at the EMU in 38.9%. Early referral to epileptologists is most critical for early surgery. Early utilization of the EMU is highly recommended because FAS is often overlooked by outpatient epileptologists. The odyssey plot will be useful to improve the healthcare system for other types of epilepsy.

    Disaster preparation is an important issue for patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, to the best of our knowledge, no studies have investigated disaster preparedness among patients with ALS. In this study, we aimed to investigate disaster preparation in patients with ALS and their caregivers, including their families, in Japan. We conducted a nationwide webinar in September 2022 titled "ALS Café" and distributed a self-report questionnaire to participants with questions about awareness of disaster preparedness, social countermeasures, stockpiles, and electricity demand. Forty-eight patients with ALS (27 male; average age 60.0 ± 9.3 years) and 23 caregivers (8 male; 55.7 ± 9.9 years) responded. The median revised ALS Functional Rating Scale score was 30.5, and 25% of the patients with ALS were on a ventilator. More than 70% of the respondents answered that they were not prepared for disasters, increasing to 89% in patients not using ventilators. In the event of their phones being down, 86% of the respondents had no plans for alternative means of communication. <30% of the respondents, including ventilator users, had secured human resources for transportation. Twenty-five percent of the respondents did not stockpile food and beverages, and 12% of the ventilator users had no government-recommended ventilator preparation equipment. Thus, although patients with ALS and their families with ventilators have a high awareness of disaster preparedness, their awareness remains insufficient. Furthermore, patients with ALS and their families without ventilators have a low awareness of disaster preparedness. Therefore, better education regarding disaster preparedness is necessary for these groups.

    INTRODUCTION: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive and incurable neurodegenerative disease. While pharmacotherapy options remain limited, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved intravenous (IV) and oral edaravone for the treatment of ALS in 2017 and 2022, respectively. With the addition of oral edaravone, patients with ALS may exclusively use oral medications. AREAS COVERED: The authors performed a review of the published literature using the United States (US) National Library of Medicine's PubMed.gov resource to describe the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, safety, and efficacy of oral edaravone, as well as pertinent completed and ongoing clinical trials, including the oral edaravone clinical trial development program. The clinical profile of oral edaravone is also discussed. EXPERT OPINION: Edaravone has been shown to slow the rate of motor function deterioration experienced by patients with ALS. As the oral formulation has been approved, patients with ALS may use it alone or in combination with other approved therapeutics. Additional clinical trials and real-world evidence are ongoing to gain further understanding of the clinical profile of oral edaravone.

    We herein report a rare case of distal chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) following coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination. A 39-year-old woman with a solitary plasmacytoma developed general weakness 7 days after receiving the second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine, which had progressed for 3 months. A neurological examination revealed limb weakness with areflexia. Serological tests identified the presence of IgG antibodies against anti-GM1 and anti-GM2 gangliosides. Comprehensive evaluations met the criteria of distal CIDP. Intravenous immunoglobulin, intravenous methylprednisolone, oral prednisolone, and plasma exchange were administered, and she gradually improved. Physicians should be aware of CIDP as a rare complication of COVID-19 vaccination.

    Protein misfolding is a major factor of neurodegenerative diseases. Post-mitotic neurons are highly susceptible to protein aggregates that are not diluted by mitosis. Therefore, post-mitotic cells may have a specific protein quality control system. Here, we show that LONRF2 is a bona fide protein quality control ubiquitin ligase induced in post-mitotic senescent cells. Under unperturbed conditions, LONRF2 is predominantly expressed in neurons. LONRF2 binds and ubiquitylates abnormally structured TDP-43 and hnRNP M1 and artificially misfolded proteins. Lonrf2-/- mice exhibit age-dependent TDP-43-mediated motor neuron (MN) degeneration and cerebellar ataxia. Mouse induced pluripotent stem cell-derived MNs lacking LONRF2 showed reduced survival, shortening of neurites and accumulation of pTDP-43 and G3BP1 after long-term culture. The shortening of neurites in MNs from patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is rescued by ectopic expression of LONRF2. Our findings reveal that LONRF2 is a protein quality control ligase whose loss may contribute to MN degeneration and motor deficits.

    BACKGROUND: Sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) is an intractable muscle disease that frequently affects elderly people. Autoantibodies recognising cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase 1A (cN1A) were found in the sera of patients with sIBM. However, the pathogenic role of the autoantibodies remained unknown. This study investigated the pathogenic properties of the autoantibodies using active cN1A peptides immunisation. METHODS: Wild-type C57BL6 mice were injected with three different mouse cN1A peptides corresponding to the previously reported epitope sequences of human cN1A. After confirming the production of autoantibodies to the corresponding cN1A peptides in each group, changes in body weight, exercise capacity by treadmill test and histological changes in mice injected with cN1A peptides or controls were investigated. RESULTS: Autoantibodies against cN1A were detected in serum samples from mice injected with cN1A peptide. Some groups of mice injected with cN1A peptide showed significant weight loss and decreased motor activity. The number of myofibres with internal nuclei increased in all the peptide-injected groups, with surrounding or invading CD8-positive T cells into myofibres, abnormal protein aggregates and overexpression of p62 and LC3. CONCLUSIONS: Active cN1A peptide immunisation partially reproduced the clinical and histological aspects of sIBM in wild-type mice. The murine model demonstrates the pathogenic properties of anti-cN1A autoantibodies to cause sIBM-like histological changes.

    INTRODUCTION: DYT-KMT2B is a rare childhood-onset, hereditary movement disorder typically characterized by lower-limb dystonia and subsequently spreads into the craniocervical and laryngeal muscles. Recently, KMT2B-encoding lysine (K)-specific histone methyltransferase 2B was identified as the causative gene for DYT-KMT2B, also known as DYT28. In addition to the fact that many physicians do not have sufficient experience or knowledge of hereditary dystonia, the clinical features of DYT-KMT2B overlap with those of other hereditary dystonia, and limited clinical biomarkers make the diagnosis difficult. METHODS: Histone proteins were purified from the oral mucosa of patients with de novo KMT2B mutation causing premature stop codon, and then trimethylated fourth lysine residue of histone H3 (H3K4me3) which was catalyzed by KMT2B was analyzed by immunoblotting with specific antibody. We further analyzed the significance of H3K4me3 in patients with DYT-KMT2B using publicly available datasets. RESULTS: H3K4me3 histone mark was markedly lower in the patient than in the control group. Additionally, a reanalysis of publicly available datasets concerning DNA methylation also demonstrated that KMT2B remained inactive in DYT-KMT2B. DISCUSSION: Although only one case was studied due to the rarity of the disease, the reduction of H3K4me3 in the patient's biological sample supports the dysfunction of KMT2B in DYT-KMT2B. Together with informatics approaches, our results suggest that KMT2B haploinsufficiency contributes to the DYT-KMT2B pathogenic process.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the degeneration of motor neurons. Although repeat expansion in C9orf72 is its most common cause, the pathogenesis of ALS isn't fully clear. In this study, we show that repeat expansion in LRP12, a causative variant of oculopharyngodistal myopathy type 1 (OPDM1), is a cause of ALS. We identify CGG repeat expansion in LRP12 in five families and two simplex individuals. These ALS individuals (LRP12-ALS) have 61-100 repeats, which contrasts with most OPDM individuals with repeat expansion in LRP12 (LRP12-OPDM), who have 100-200 repeats. Phosphorylated TDP-43 is present in the cytoplasm of iPS cell-derived motor neurons (iPSMNs) in LRP12-ALS, a finding that reproduces the pathological hallmark of ALS. RNA foci are more prominent in muscle and iPSMNs in LRP12-ALS than in LRP12-OPDM. Muscleblind-like 1 aggregates are observed only in OPDM muscle. In conclusion, CGG repeat expansions in LRP12 cause ALS and OPDM, depending on the length of the repeat. Our findings provide insight into the repeat length-dependent switching of phenotypes.

    The patient was 57 years old when he was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) at 1 year after developing bulbar symptoms. At 58 years old, he stated that he was considering donating his kidney to his son suffering from diabetic nephropathy. We confirmed the patient's intentions through repeated interviews before his death at 61 years old. Nephrectomy was performed 30 min after his cardiac death. Organ donation spontaneously proposed by an ALS patient should be considered in order to meet the requests of patients who want their families and other patients to live longer, thereby imparting a beneficial legacy through their deaths.

    BACKGROUND: Several genetic factors are associated with the pathogenesis of sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and its phenotypes, such as disease progression. Here, in this study, we aimed to identify the genes that affect the survival of patients with sporadic ALS. METHODS: We enrolled 1076 Japanese patients with sporadic ALS with imputed genotype data of 7 908 526 variants. We used Cox proportional hazards regression analysis with an additive model adjusted for sex, age at onset and the first two principal components calculated from genotyped data to conduct a genome-wide association study. We further analysed messenger RNA (mRNA) and phenotype expression in motor neurons derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC-MNs) of patients with ALS. RESULTS: Three novel loci were significantly associated with the survival of patients with sporadic ALS-FGF1 at 5q31.3 (rs11738209, HR=2.36 (95% CI, 1.77 to 3.15), p=4.85×10-9), THSD7A at 7p21.3 (rs2354952, 1.38 (95% CI, 1.24 to 1.55), p=1.61×10-8) and LRP1 at 12q13.3 (rs60565245, 2.18 (95% CI, 1.66 to 2.86), p=2.35×10-8). FGF1 and THSD7A variants were associated with decreased mRNA expression of each gene in iPSC-MNs and reduced in vitro survival of iPSC-MNs obtained from patients with ALS. The iPSC-MN in vitro survival was reduced when the expression of FGF1 and THSD7A was partially disrupted. The rs60565245 was not associated with LRP1 mRNA expression. CONCLUSIONS: We identified three loci associated with the survival of patients with sporadic ALS, decreased mRNA expression of FGF1 and THSD7A and the viability of iPSC-MNs from patients. The iPSC-MN model reflects the association between patient prognosis and genotype and can contribute to target screening and validation for therapeutic intervention.

    To elucidate the molecular basis of multiple system atrophy (MSA), a neurodegenerative disease, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in a Japanese MSA case/control series followed by replication studies in Japanese, Korean, Chinese, European and North American samples. In the GWAS stage rs2303744 on chromosome 19 showed a suggestive association ( P = 6.5 × 10 -7 ) that was replicated in additional Japanese samples ( P = 2.9 × 10 -6 . OR = 1.58; 95% confidence interval, 1.30 to 1.91), and then confirmed as highly significant in a meta-analysis of East Asian population data ( P = 5.0 × 10 -15 . Odds ratio= 1.49; 95% CI 1.35 to 1.72). The association of rs2303744 with MSA remained significant in combined European/North American samples ( P =0.023. Odds ratio=1.14; 95% CI 1.02 to 1.28) despite allele frequencies being quite different between these populations. rs2303744 leads to an amino acid substitution in PLA2G4C that encodes the cPLA2γ lysophospholipase/transacylase. The cPLA2γ-Ile143 isoform encoded by the MSA risk allele has significantly decreased transacylase activity compared with the alternate cPLA2γ-Val143 isoform that may perturb membrane phospholipids and α-synuclein biology.

    BACKGROUND: GNE myopathy is an ultra-rare muscle disease characterized by a reduction in the synthesis of sialic acid derived from pathogenic variants in the GNE gene. No treatment has been established so far. OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the safety and efficacy of oral supplementation of aceneuramic acid in patients with GNE myopathy. METHODS: This multicenter, placebo-controlled, double-blind study comprised genetically confirmed GNE myopathy patients in Japan who were randomly assigned into treatment groups of sialic acid-extended release (SA-ER) tablets (6 g/day for 48 weeks) or placebo groups (4:1). The primary endpoint of effectiveness was set as the change in total upper limb muscle strength (upper extremity composite [UEC] score) from the start of administration to the final evaluation time point. RESULTS: Among the 20 enrolled patients (SA-ER group, 16; placebo group, 4), 19 completed this 48-week study. The mean value of change in UEC score (95% confidence interval [CI]) at 48 weeks was -0.1 kg (-2.1 to 2.0) in the SA-ER group and -5.1 kg (-10.4 to 0.3) in the placebo group. The least squares mean difference (95% CI) between the groups in the covariance analysis was 4.8 kg (-0.3 to 9.9; P = 0.0635). The change in UEC score at 48 weeks was significantly higher in the SA-ER group compared with the placebo group (P = 0.0013) in the generalized estimating equation test repeated measurement analysis. In one patient in the SA-ER group, who was found to be pregnant 2 weeks after drug administration fetal death with tangled umbilical cord occurred at 13 weeks after the discontinuation of treatment. No other serious adverse effects were observed. CONCLUSIONS: The present study indicates that oral administration of SA-ER tablets is effective and safe in patients with GNE myopathy in Japan.

    Painful legs and moving toes syndrome (PLMTS) is a rare movement disorder characterized by spontaneous abnormal, involuntary toe movements and unilateral or bilateral lower extremity pain that predominantly affects women in middle age or later. The background etiology of PLMTS includes peripheral neuropathy, a history of trauma, and nerve root damage, but the cause of the disease is often undetermined. The pain usually occurs first and is often more distressing to the patient than abnormal toe movement. Spontaneous resolution is rare, and symptomatic therapies include the oral administration of anticonvulsants, antidepressants, and various pain relievers, as well as other therapeutic interventions, including botulinum toxin injection and epidural block, but their effectiveness is uncertain. We report a case of PMLTS in which low doses of pramipexole, a non-ergot dopamine agonist, dramatically improved both abnormal toe movement and leg pain, which are documented by videography.

    Pseudobulbar palsy and bulbar palsy cause dysphagia in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Dysphagia in patients with ALS not only increases the risk of aspiration and pneumonia but also leads to malnutrition and weight loss, which are poor prognostic factors. Gastrostomy is the preferred route of feeding and nutritional support in patients with dysphagia. However, there are no established standards to determine the ideal timing of gastrostomy for patients with ALS. Therefore, we used the videofluoroscopic dysphagia scale (VDS), which objectively quantifies swallowing function, in videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS) to investigate whether this scale at diagnosis can be a useful predictor for the timing of gastrostomy. We retrospectively evaluated 22 patients with ALS who were diagnosed at our hospital. We assessed the VDS scores in all patients within 3 months of diagnosis. A decline in the ALS functional rating scale revised (ALSFRS-R) scores was used as an indicator of disease progression. As a result, we found that the VDS score of the pharyngeal phase and the total VDS score were significantly correlated with the ΔALSFRS-R scores. These scores were also associated with the existing indicators for the timing of gastrostomy, i.e., decreased body weight and percent-predicted forced vital capacity. We demonstrated the noninferiority of the VDS scores relative to the existing indicators. In addition, the VDS score of the pharyngeal phase was significantly correlated with the time from diagnosis to gastrostomy. The VDS score could estimate the timing of gastrostomy in patients with ALS with dysphagia at diagnosis.

    The clinical presentation of corticobasal degeneration is diverse, while the background pathology of corticobasal syndrome is also heterogeneous. Therefore, predicting the pathological background of corticobasal syndrome is extremely difficult. Herein, we investigated the clinical findings and course in patients with pathologically, genetically and biochemically verified corticobasal degeneration and corticobasal syndrome with background pathology to determine findings suggestive of background disorder. Thirty-two patients were identified as having corticobasal degeneration. The median intervals from the initial symptoms to the onset of key milestones were as follows: gait disturbance, 0.0 year; behavioural changes, 1.0 year; falls, 2.0 years; cognitive impairment, 2.0 years; speech impairment, 2.5 years; supranuclear gaze palsy, 3.0 years; urinary incontinence, 3.0 years; and dysphagia, 5.0 years. The median survival time was 7.0 years; 50% of corticobasal degeneration was diagnosed as corticobasal degeneration/corticobasal syndrome at the final presentation. Background pathologies of corticobasal syndrome (n = 48) included corticobasal degeneration (33.3%), progressive supranuclear palsy (29.2%) and Alzheimer's disease (12.5%). The common course of corticobasal syndrome was initial gait disturbance and early fall. In addition, corticobasal degeneration-corticobasal syndrome manifested behavioural change (2.5 years) and cognitive impairment (3.0 years), as the patient with progressive supranuclear palsy-corticobasal syndrome developed speech impairment (1.0 years) and supranuclear gaze palsy (6.0 years). The Alzheimer's disease-corticobasal syndrome patients showed cognitive impairment (1.0 years). The frequency of frozen gait at onset was higher in the corticobasal degeneration-corticobasal syndrome group than in the progressive supranuclear palsy-corticobasal syndrome group [P = 0.005, odds ratio (95% confidence interval): 31.67 (1.46-685.34)]. Dysarthria at presentation was higher in progressive supranuclear palsy-corticobasal syndrome than in corticobasal degeneration-corticobasal syndrome [P = 0.047, 6.75 (1.16-39.20)]. Pyramidal sign at presentation and personality change during the entire course were higher in Alzheimer's disease-corticobasal syndrome than in progressive supranuclear palsy-corticobasal syndrome [P = 0.011, 27.44 (1.25-601.61), and P = 0.013, 40.00 (1.98-807.14), respectively]. In corticobasal syndrome, decision tree analysis revealed that 'freezing at onset' or 'no dysarthria at presentation and age at onset under 66 years in the case without freezing at onset' predicted corticobasal degeneration pathology with a sensitivity of 81.3% and specificity of 84.4%. 'Dysarthria at presentation and age at onset over 61 years' suggested progressive supranuclear palsy pathology, and 'pyramidal sign at presentation and personality change during the entire course' implied Alzheimer's disease pathology. In conclusion, frozen gait at onset, dysarthria, personality change and pyramidal signs may be useful clinical signs for predicting background pathologies in corticobasal syndrome.

    Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) is expressed on the outermost layer of the myelin sheath in the central nervous system. Recently, the clinical concept of MOG antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) was established based on the results of human MOG-transfected cell-based assays which can detect conformation-sensitive antibodies against MOG. In this review, we summarized the pathological findings of MOGAD and discussed the issues that remain unresolved. MOGAD pathology is principally inflammatory demyelination without astrocyte destruction, characterized by perivenous demyelination previously reported in acute disseminated encephalomyelitis and by its fusion pattern localized in both the white and gray matter, but not by radially expanding confluent demyelination typically seen in multiple sclerosis (MS). Some of demyelinating lesions in MOGAD show severe loss of MOG staining compared with those of other myelin proteins, suggesting a MOG-targeted pathology in the disease. Perivascular cuffings mainly consist of macrophages and T cells with CD4-dominancy, which is also different from CD8+ T-cell-dominant inflammation in MS. Compared to aquaporin 4 (AQP4) antibody-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD), perivenous complement deposition is less common, but can be seen on myelinated fibers and on myelin degradation products within macrophages, resembling MS Pattern II pathology. Thus, the pathogenetic contribution of complements in MOGAD is still debatable. Together, these pathological features in MOGAD are clearly different from those of MS and AQP4 antibody-positive NMOSD, suggesting that MOGAD is an independent autoimmune demyelinating disease entity. Further research is needed to clarify the exact pathomechanisms of demyelination and how the pathophysiology relates to the clinical phenotype and symptoms leading to disability in MOGAD patients.

    A 26-year-old woman developed a sudden headache, ptosis, and diplopia. Magnetic resonance imaging and angiography demonstrated a symmetrical lesion from the midbrain to the brainstem, involving the solitary nucleus and multifocal cerebral artery narrowing. Reversible cerebral vasospasm syndrome (RCVS) was suspected, and the patient improved after vasodilatation. Leigh syndrome was suspected due to the elevated serum lactate levels, so mitochondrial DNA was analyzed, and an m.9176 T>C mutation was detected. The final diagnosis was adult-onset Leigh syndrome manifesting as RCVS. An uncontrolled baroreflex due to a solitary nuclear lesion or endothelial dysfunction may have contributed to her unique presentation.

    BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Inhibition of terminal complement in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) using eculizumab helps prevent relapses, but the exact mechanism of action of the drug remains unclear. Similarly, genetic variants in the Fc Gamma receptor 3A (FCGR3A), also known as CD16, are correlated with outcomes in NMOSD, but the immune cells expressing those CD16 are unknown. We compared CD16 expression on immune cells modulated by complement activity in natural killer (NK) cells and natural killer-T (NKT) cells in NMOSD to disease and normal-healthy controls. METHODS: Peripheral blood cell (PBMC) samples from 45 patients with NMOSD with aquaporin 4 (AQP4)-IgG, 18 disease controls, and 19 normal controls were analyzed for CD16 expression and complement receptors in vitro. RESULTS: At baseline, the number of NKT cells was increased in NMOSD (p < 0.001), but the proportion that was CD16 positive was lower compared to normal and disease controls (p = 0.0012). NK cell count was normal, but the ratio that was CD16 positive was also significantly lower (p < 0.001). In both NK cells and NKT cells from NMOSD, C5 complement receptor expression was much higher than normal and disease controls (p < 0.001 for both). We also evaluated activation markers CD69 and CD83, which were also significantly higher in NK and NKT cells from NMOSD patients. FCGR3A p158 V/V genotype group in NMOSD patients showed decreased NK cell proportion with activation, and fewer CD16-expressing NKT cells than the F/F genotype group. DISCUSSION: Our results support an immunopathogenesis model in which complement pathway activation in NK/NKT cells upregulates CD16 expression that binds to antibody/antigen complexes. In the context of NMOSD, these complement-sensitive cells may be responsible for the escalating autoimmune activity.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an intractable disease that causes respiratory failure leading to mortality. The main locus of ALS is motor neurons. The success of antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) therapy in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a motor neuron disease, has triggered a paradigm shift in developing ALS therapies. The causative genes of ALS and disease-modifying genes, including those of sporadic ALS, have been identified one after another. Thus, the freedom of target choice for gene therapy has expanded by ASO strategy, leading to new avenues for therapeutic development. Tofersen for superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) was a pioneer in developing ASO for ALS. Improving protocols and devising early interventions for the disease are vital. In this review, we updated the knowledge of causative genes in ALS. We summarized the genetic mutations identified in familial ALS and their clinical features, focusing on SOD1, fused in sarcoma (FUS), and transacting response DNA-binding protein. The frequency of the C9ORF72 mutation is low in Japan, unlike in Europe and the United States, while SOD1 and FUS are more common, indicating that the target mutations for gene therapy vary by ethnicity. A genome-wide association study has revealed disease-modifying genes, which could be the novel target of gene therapy. The current status and prospects of gene therapy development were discussed, including ethical issues. Furthermore, we discussed the potential of axonal pathology as new therapeutic targets of ALS from the perspective of early intervention, including intra-axonal transcription factors, neuromuscular junction disconnection, dysregulated local translation, abnormal protein degradation, mitochondrial pathology, impaired axonal transport, aberrant cytoskeleton, and axon branching. We simultaneously discuss important pathological states of cell bodies: persistent stress granules, disrupted nucleocytoplasmic transport, and cryptic splicing. The development of gene therapy based on the elucidation of disease-modifying genes and early intervention in molecular pathology is expected to become an important therapeutic strategy in ALS.

    Myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibody-associated disorder (MOGAD) is a newly identified autoimmune demyelinating disorder that is often associated with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis and usually occurs postinfection or postvaccination. Here we report a case of MOGAD after mRNA severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination. A previously healthy 68-year-old woman presented to our department with gradually worsening numbness on the right side of her face, which began 14 days after her second dose of an mRNA-1273 vaccination. The patient's brain MRI revealed a right cerebellar peduncle lesion with gadolinium enhancement, a typical finding of MOGAD. A neurological examination revealed paresthesia on her right V2 and V3 areas. Other neurological examinations were unremarkable. Laboratory workups were positive for serum MOG-IgG as assessed by live cell-based assays and the presence of oligoclonal bands in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The patient's serum test results for cytoplasmic-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies, perinuclear-cytoplasmic-antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies, GQ1b-antibodies, and aquaporin-4 antibodies (AQP4-IgG) were all negative. Tests for soluble interleukin (IL)-2 receptors in the serum, IL-6 in the CSF and skin pricks, and angiotensin converting enzyme tests were all unremarkable. The patient was diagnosed with MOGAD after receiving an mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccination. After two courses of intravenous methylprednisolone treatment, the patient's symptoms improved and her cerebellar peduncle lesion shrunk slightly without gadolinium enhancement. To date, there have only been two cases of monophasic MOGAD following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, including both the ChAdOx1 nCOV-19 and mRNA-1273 vaccines, and the prognosis is generally similar to other typical MOGAD cases. Although the appearance of MOG antibodies is relatively rare in post-COVID-19-vaccine demyelinating diseases, MOGAD should be considered in patients with central nervous system (CNS) demyelinating diseases after receiving a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult-onset incurable motor neuron (MN) disease. The reasons for selective MN vulnerability in ALS are unknown. Axonal pathology is among the earliest signs of ALS. We searched for novel modulatory genes in human MN axon shortening affected by TARDBP mutations. In transcriptome analysis of RNA present in the axon compartment of human-derived induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived MNs, PHOX2B (paired-like homeobox protein 2B) showed lower expression in TARDBP mutant axons, which was consistent with axon qPCR and in situ hybridization. PHOX2B mRNA stability was reduced in TARDBP mutant MNs. Furthermore, PHOX2B knockdown reduced neurite length in human MNs. Finally, phox2b knockdown in zebrafish induced short spinal axons and impaired escape response. PHOX2B is known to be highly express in other types of neurons maintained after ALS progression. Collectively, TARDBP mutations induced loss of axonal resilience, which is an important ALS-related phenotype mediated by PHOX2B downregulation.

    OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the differences in the source and in the level of intrathecal synthesis between anti-aquaporin-4 antibodies (AQP4-IgG) and anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibodies (MOG-IgG). METHODS: Thirty-eight patients with MOG-IgG-associated disease and 36 with AQP4-IgG-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) were studied for the antibody titers in the sera and cerebrospinal fluids (CSF) simultaneously collected in the acute attacks. The quotients between CSF and serum levels of albumin, total IgG, and each disease-specific antibody were calculated. Intrathecal production level in each disease-specific antibody was evaluated by calculating antibody index from these quotients. RESULTS: Eleven of the 38 patients with MOG-IgG were positive for the antibody only in the CSF, while no patient with AQP4-IgG showed CSF-restricted AQP4-IgG. Blood-brain barrier compromise as shown by raised albumin quotients was seen in 75.0% of MOG-IgG-positive cases and 43.8% of AQP4-IgG-positive cases. Moreover, MOG-IgG quotients were more than 10 times higher than AQP4-IgG quotients (effect size r = 0.659, p < 0.0001). Elevated antibody index (>4.0) was confirmed in 12 of 21 with MOG-IgG, whereas it was seen only in one of 16 with AQP4-IgG (φ = 0.528, p < 0.0001). The CSF MOG-IgG titers (rho = +0.519, p = 0.001) and antibody indexes for MOG-IgG (rho = +0.472, p = 0.036) correlated with the CSF cell counts but not with clinical disability. CONCLUSIONS: Intrathecal production of MOG-IgG may occur more frequently than that of AQP4-IgG. This finding implies the different properties of B-cell trafficking and antibody production between MOG-IgG-associated disease and AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD.

    BACKGROUND: Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing neuroinflammatory disease associated with aquaporin-4 antibody. Since disabilities in patients with NMOSD accumulate with attacks, relapse prevention is crucially important for improving long-term outcomes. Corticosteroids are inexpensive and promising drugs for relapse prevention in NMOSD, but few studies have analysed the efficacy of corticosteroids in NMOSD, especially regarding the appropriate dosing and tapering regimens. METHODS: A single-center, retrospective analysis of corticosteroid therapy in aquaporin-4 antibody-positive NMOSD patients fulfilling the 2015 international consensus diagnostic criteria was conducted. RESULTS: Medical records of a total of 89 Japanese patients with aquaporin-4 antibody-positive NMOSD seen at Department of Neurology, Tohoku University Hospital (2000~2016) were reviewed. At the last follow-up, 66% of the patients were treated with prednisolone (PSL) monotherapy, and the percentage of those receiving PSL monotherapy or a combination of PSL and other immunosuppressants increased from 17.5% in 2000 to 94.1% in 2016. On the other hand, annualised relapse rate (ARR) decreased from 0.78 (13 attacks in 200 person-months) in 2000 to 0.07 (5 attacks in 819 person-months) in 2016. Under PSL treatment, the mean ARR significantly decreased, and disabilities stabilized (PSL treatment vs no-medication; ARR: 0.21 vs 0.98, P < 0.01, Expanded Disability Status Scale score change: +0.02 vs +0.89, P < 0.01, observation periods: 60.1 vs 68.2 months, P=0.26). Using Kaplan-Meier curves, the 10-year relapse-free rate was 46.5% with PSL monotherapy and 7.1% with no medication (hazard ratio: 0.069, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.024-0.199, P < 0.01). Rapid tapering of PSL (10 mg or less in one year and/or 5 mg or less in two years after clinical attacks) was associated with frequent relapses compared to gradual tapering (more than 10 mg in one year and more than 5 mg in two years after clinical attacks) (rapid vs gradual, 36.7% vs 17.7%, odds ratio 2.69, 95% CI 1.12-6.44, P = 0.02). However, even with PSL of 5 mg/day or less, the relapse rate was low after two years of acute treatment (before vs after, 53.8% vs 13.6%, odds ratio 0.12, 95% CI 0.03-0.50, P < 0.01). Nine patients needed additional immunosuppressants due to insufficient relapse prevention by PSL monotherapy. PSL monotherapy was generally well tolerated, but seven patients had severe adverse events, mainly bone fractures (5 with bone fracture, 1 with femoral capital necrosis and 1 with cerebral infarction). CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that PSL monotherapy is effective to prevent relapses in about half of patients with aquaporin-4 antibody-positive NMOSD if the doses are gradually reduced. Although it is important to have a treatment strategy tailored to each patient, this study provides evidence that PSL monotherapy can be an option for relapse prevention in some patients with NMOSD.

    Heat shock protein family B member 8, encoded by HSPB8, is an essential component of the chaperone-assisted selective autophagy complex, which maintains muscle function by degrading damaged proteins in the cells. Mutations in HSPB8 have been reported to cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth type 2L, distal hereditary motor neuropathy IIa, and rimmed vacuolar myopathies (RVM). In this study, we identified a novel heterozygous frameshift variant c.525_529del in HSPB8 in a large Japanese family with RVM, using whole exome sequencing. Three affected individuals had severe respiratory failure, which has not been addressed by previous studies. Muscle atrophy in the paraspinal muscles was also a clinical feature of the individuals affected with RVM in this study. The frameshift mutation was located in the last coding exon, and the mutated protein was predicted to harbor an isoleucine-leucine-valine (ILV) sequence, which corresponds to the IXI/V (isoleucine, X amino acids, and isoleucine or valine) motif. The IXI/V motif is essential for assembly into larger oligomers in other small heat shock proteins and all frameshift mutants of HSPB8 were predicted to share the ILV sequence in the C-terminal extension. The in silico prediction tools showed low protein solubility and increased aggregation propensity for the region around the ILV sequence. The IXI/V motif might be associated with the pathogenesis of HSPB8-related RVM.

    Aquaporin 4 (AQP4)-IgG-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4-IgG+NMOSD) is an autoimmune astrocytopathic disease pathologically characterized by the massive destruction and regeneration of astrocytes with diverse types of tissue injury with or without complement deposition. However, it is unknown whether this diversity is derived from differences in pathological processes or temporal changes. Furthermore, unlike for the demyelinating lesions in multiple sclerosis, there has been no staging of astrocytopathy in AQP4-IgG+NMOSD based on astrocyte morphology. Therefore, we classified astrocytopathy of the disease by comparing the characteristic features, such as AQP4 loss, inflammatory cell infiltration, complement deposition and demyelination activity, with the clinical phase. We performed histopathological analyses in eight autopsied cases of AQP4-IgG+NMOSD. There were six women and two men, with a median age of 56.5 years (range, 46-71 years) and a median disease duration of 62.5 months (range, 0.6-252 months). Astrocytopathy in AQP4-IgG+NMOSD was classified into the following four stages defined by the astrocyte morphology and immunoreactivity for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP): (a) astrocyte lysis: Extensive loss of astrocytes with fragmented and/or dust-like particles; (b) progenitor recruitment: Loss of astrocytes except small nucleated cells with GFAP-positive fibre-forming foot processes; (c) protoplasmic gliosis: Presence of star-shaped astrocytes with abundant GFAP-reactive cytoplasm; and (d) fibrous gliosis: Lesions composed of densely packed mature astrocytes. The astrocyte lysis and progenitor recruitment stages dominated in clinically acute cases (within 2 months after the last recurrence). Findings common to both stages were the loss of AQP4, a decreased number of oligodendrocytes, the selective loss of myelin-associated glycoprotein and active demyelination with phagocytic macrophages. The infiltration of polymorphonuclear cells and T cells (CD4-dominant) and the deposition of activated complement (C9neo), which reflects the membrane attack complex, a hallmark of acute NMOSD lesions, were selectively observed in the astrocyte lysis stage (98.4% in astrocyte lysis, 1.6% in progenitor recruitment, and 0% in protoplasmic gliosis and fibrous gliosis). Although most of the protoplasmic gliosis and fibrous gliosis lesions were accompanied by inactive demyelinated lesions with a low amount of inflammatory cell infiltration, the deposition of complement degradation product (C3d) was observed in all four stages, even in fibrous gliosis lesions, suggesting the past or chronic occurrence of complement activation, which is a useful finding to distinguish chronic lesions in NMOSD from those in multiple sclerosis. Our staging of astrocytopathy is expected to be useful for understanding the unique temporal pathology of AQP4-IgG+NMOSD.

    Here we report 3 cases of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), who were all treated with eculizumab and could be observed with monitoring serum C3, C4 and 50% hemolytic complement (CH50) before and after the treatment. Serum C3 and C4 were not dramatically changed during the treatment, in contrast serum CH50 level of each patient had diminished and kept under the detection limit after the treatment without clinical worsening, even in the situation of extending dosing. Serum CH50 level is useful to monitor the drug efficacy during eculizumab treatment.

    Dysferlinopathy is a group of autosomal recessive muscular dystrophies caused by variants in the dysferlin gene (DYSF), with variable proximal and distal muscle involvement. We performed DYSF gene analyses of 200 cases suspected of having dysferlinopathy (Cohort 1), and identified diagnostic variants in 129/200 cases, including 19 novel variants. To achieve a comprehensive genetic profile of dysferlinopathy, we analyzed the variant data from 209 affected cases from unrelated 209 families, including 80 previously diagnosed and 129 newly diagnosed cases (Cohort 2). Among the 90 types of variants identified in 209 cases, the NM_003494.3: c.2997G>T; p.Trp999Cys, was the most frequent (96/420; 22.9%), followed by c.1566C>G; p.Tyr522* (45/420; 10.7%) on an allele base. p.Trp999Cys was found in 70/209 cases (33.5%), including 20/104 cases (19.2%) with the Miyoshi muscular phenotype and 43/82 cases (52.4%) with the limb-girdle phenotype. In the analysis of missense variants, p.Trp992Arg, p.Trp999Arg, p.Trp999Cys, p.Ser1000Phe, p.Arg1040Trp, and p.Arg1046His were located in the inner DysF domain, representing in 113/160 missense variants (70.6%). This large cohort highlighted the frequent missense variants located in the inner DysF domain as a hotspot for missense variants among our cohort of 209 cases (>95%, Japanese) and hinted at their potential as targets for future therapeutic strategies.

    C21ORF2 and NEK1 have been identified as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)-associated genes. Both genes are also mutated in certain ciliopathies, suggesting that they might contribute to the same signaling pathways. Here we show that FBXO3, the substrate receptor of an SCF ubiquitin ligase complex, binds and ubiquitylates C21ORF2, thereby targeting it for proteasomal degradation. C21ORF2 stabilizes the kinase NEK1, with the result that loss of FBXO3 stabilizes not only C21ORF2 but also NEK1. Conversely, NEK1-mediated phosphorylation stabilizes C21ORF2 by attenuating its interaction with FBXO3. We found that the ALS-associated V58L mutant of C21ORF2 is more susceptible to phosphorylation by NEK1, with the result that it is not ubiquitylated by FBXO3 and therefore accumulates together with NEK1. Expression of C21ORF2(V58L) in motor neurons induced from mouse embryonic stem cells impaired neurite outgrowth. We suggest that inhibition of NEK1 activity is a potential therapeutic approach to ALS associated with C21ORF2 mutation.

    Conformation-sensitive antibodies against myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) are detectable in patients with optic neuritis, myelitis, opticomyelitis, acute or multiphasic disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM/MDEM) and brainstem/cerebral cortical encephalitis, but are rarely detected in patients with prototypic multiple sclerosis. So far, there has been no systematic study on the pathological relationship between demyelinating lesions and cellular/humoral immunity in MOG antibody-associated disease. Furthermore, it is unclear whether the pathomechanisms of MOG antibody-mediated demyelination are similar to the demyelination patterns of multiple sclerosis, neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) with AQP4 antibody, or ADEM. In this study, we immunohistochemically analysed biopsied brain tissues from 11 patients with MOG antibody-associated disease and other inflammatory demyelinating diseases. Patient median onset age was 29 years (range 9-64), and the median interval from attack to biopsy was 1 month (range 0.5-96). The clinical diagnoses were ADEM (n = 2), MDEM (n = 1), multiple brain lesions without encephalopathy (n = 3), leukoencephalopathy (n = 3) and cortical encephalitis (n = 2). All these cases had multiple/extensive lesions on MRI and were oligoclonal IgG band-negative. Most demyelinating lesions in 10 of 11 cases showed a perivenous demyelinating pattern previously reported in ADEM (153/167 lesions) and a fusion pattern (11/167 lesions) mainly in the cortico-medullary junctions and white matter, and only three lesions in two cases showed confluent demyelinated plaques. In addition, 60 of 167 demyelinating lesions (mainly in the early phase) showed MOG-dominant myelin loss, but relatively preserved oligodendrocytes, which were distinct from those of AQP4 antibody-positive NMOSD exhibiting myelin-associated glycoprotein-dominant oligodendrogliopathy. In MOG antibody-associated diseases, MOG-laden macrophages were found in the perivascular spaces and demyelinating lesions, and infiltrated cells were abundant surrounding multiple blood vessels in and around the demyelinating lesions, mainly consisting of macrophages (CD68; 1814 ± 1188 cells/mm2), B cells (CD20; 468 ± 817 cells/mm2), and T cells (CD3; 2286 ± 1951 cells/mm2), with CD4-dominance (CD4+ versus CD8+; 1281 ± 1196 cells/mm2 versus 851 ± 762 cells/mm2, P < 0.01). Humoral immunity, evidenced by perivascular deposits of activated complements and immunoglobulins, was occasionally observed in some MOG antibody-associated demyelinating lesions, and the frequency was much lower than that in AQP4 antibody-positive NMOSD. Subpial lesions with perivenous demyelination were observed in both ADEM and cortical encephalitis. Our study suggests that ADEM-like perivenous inflammatory demyelination with MOG-dominant myelin loss is a characteristic finding of MOG antibody-associated disease regardless of whether the diagnostic criteria of ADEM are met. These pathological features are clearly different from those of multiple sclerosis and AQP4 antibody-positive NMOSD, suggesting an independent autoimmune demyelinating disease entity.

    Mutations in dysferlin are responsible for a group of progressive, recessively inherited muscular dystrophies known as dysferlinopathies. Using recombinant proteins and affinity purification methods combined with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), we found that AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)γ1 was bound to a region of dysferlin located between the third and fourth C2 domains. Using ex vivo laser injury experiments, we demonstrated that the AMPK complex was vital for the sarcolemmal damage repair of skeletal muscle fibers. Injury-induced AMPK complex accumulation was dependent on the presence of Ca2+, and the rate of accumulation was regulated by dysferlin. Furthermore, it was found that the phosphorylation of AMPKα was essential for plasma membrane repair, and treatment with an AMPK activator rescued the membrane-repair impairment observed in immortalized human myotubes with reduced expression of dysferlin and dysferlin-null mouse fibers. Finally, it was determined that treatment with the AMPK activator metformin improved the muscle phenotype in zebrafish and mouse models of dysferlin deficiency. These findings indicate that the AMPK complex is essential for plasma membrane repair and is a potential therapeutic target for dysferlinopathy.

    BACKGROUND: Inclusion body myositis is an idiopathic inflammatory myopathy and the most common myopathy affecting people older than 50 years. To date, there are no effective drug treatments. We aimed to assess the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of bimagrumab-a fully human monoclonal antibody-in individuals with inclusion body myositis. METHODS: We did a multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (RESILIENT) at 38 academic clinical sites in Australia, Europe, Japan, and the USA. Individuals (aged 36-85 years) were eligible for the study if they met modified 2010 Medical Research Council criteria for inclusion body myositis. We randomly assigned participants (1:1:1:1) using a blocked randomisation schedule (block size of four) to either bimagrumab (10 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg, or 1 mg/kg) or placebo matched in appearance to bimagrumab, administered as intravenous infusions every 4 weeks for at least 48 weeks. All study participants, the funder, investigators, site personnel, and people doing assessments were masked to treatment assignment. The primary outcome measure was 6-min walking distance (6MWD), which was assessed at week 52 in the primary analysis population and analysed by intention-to-treat principles. We used a multivariate normal repeated measures model to analyse data for 6MWD. Safety was assessed by recording adverse events and by electrocardiography, echocardiography, haematological testing, urinalysis, and blood chemistry. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01925209; this report represents the final analysis. FINDINGS: Between Sept 26, 2013, and Jan 6, 2016, 251 participants were enrolled to the study, of whom 63 were assigned to each bimagrumab group and 62 were allocated to the placebo group. At week 52, 6MWD change from baseline did not differ between any bimagrumab dose and placebo (least squares mean treatment difference for bimagrumab 10 mg/kg group, 17·6 m, SE 14·3, 99% CI -19·6 to 54·8; p=0·22; for 3 mg/kg group, 18·6 m, 14·2, -18·2 to 55·4; p=0·19; and for 1 mg/kg group, -1·3 m, 14·1, -38·0 to 35·4; p=0·93). 63 (100%) participants in each bimagrumab group and 61 (98%) of 62 in the placebo group had at least one adverse event. Falls were the most frequent adverse event (48 [76%] in the bimagrumab 10 mg/kg group, 55 [87%] in the 3 mg/kg group, 54 [86%] in the 1 mg/kg group, and 52 [84%] in the placebo group). The most frequently reported adverse events with bimagrumab were muscle spasms (32 [51%] in the bimagrumab 10 mg/kg group, 43 [68%] in the 3 mg/kg group, 25 [40%] in the 1 mg/kg group, and 13 [21%] in the placebo group) and diarrhoea (33 [52%], 28 [44%], 20 [32%], and 11 [18%], respectively). Adverse events leading to discontinuation were reported in four (6%) participants in each bimagrumab group compared with one (2%) participant in the placebo group. At least one serious adverse event was reported by 21 (33%) participants in the 10 mg/kg group, 11 (17%) in the 3 mg/kg group, 20 (32%) in the 1 mg/kg group, and 20 (32%) in the placebo group. No significant adverse cardiac effects were recorded on electrocardiography or echocardiography. Two deaths were reported during the study, one attributable to subendocardial myocardial infarction (secondary to gastrointestinal bleeding after an intentional overdose of concomitant sedatives and antidepressants) and one attributable to lung adenocarcinoma. Neither death was considered by the investigator to be related to bimagrumab. INTERPRETATION: Bimagrumab showed a good safety profile, relative to placebo, in individuals with inclusion body myositis but did not improve 6MWD. The strengths of our study are that, to the best of our knowledge, it is the largest randomised controlled trial done in people with inclusion body myositis, and it provides important natural history data over 12 months.

    BACKGROUND: The characteristic structure of motor neurons (MNs), particularly of the long axons, becomes damaged in the early stages of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, the molecular pathophysiology of axonal degeneration remains to be fully elucidated. METHOD: Two sets of isogenic human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSCs)-derived MNs possessing the single amino acid difference (p.H517D) in the fused in sarcoma (FUS) were constructed. By combining MN reporter lentivirus, MN specific phenotype was analyzed. Moreover, RNA profiling of isolated axons were conducted by applying the microfluidic devices that enable axon bundles to be produced for omics analysis. The relationship between the target gene, which was identified as a pathological candidate in ALS with RNA-sequencing, and the MN phenotype was confirmed by intervention with si-RNA or overexpression to hiPSCs-derived MNs and even in vivo. The commonality was further confirmed with other ALS-causative mutant hiPSCs-derived MNs and human pathology. FINDINGS: We identified aberrant increasing of axon branchings in FUS-mutant hiPSCs-derived MN axons compared with isogenic controls as a novel phenotype. We identified increased level of Fos-B mRNA, the binding target of FUS, in FUS-mutant MNs. While Fos-B reduction using si-RNA or an inhibitor ameliorated the observed aberrant axon branching, Fos-B overexpression resulted in aberrant axon branching even in vivo. The commonality of those phenotypes was further confirmed with other ALS causative mutation than FUS. INTERPRETATION: Analyzing the axonal fraction of hiPSC-derived MNs using microfluidic devices revealed that Fos-B is a key regulator of FUS-mutant axon branching.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a heterogeneous motor neuron disease for which no effective treatment is available, despite decades of research into SOD1-mutant familial ALS (FALS). The majority of ALS patients have no familial history, making the modeling of sporadic ALS (SALS) essential to the development of ALS therapeutics. However, as mutations underlying ALS pathogenesis have not yet been identified, it remains difficult to establish useful models of SALS. Using induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology to generate stem and differentiated cells retaining the patients' full genetic information, we have established a large number of in vitro cellular models of SALS. These models showed phenotypic differences in their pattern of neuronal degeneration, types of abnormal protein aggregates, cell death mechanisms, and onset and progression of these phenotypes in vitro among cases. We therefore developed a system for case clustering capable of subdividing these heterogeneous SALS models by their in vitro characteristics. We further evaluated multiple-phenotype rescue of these subclassified SALS models using agents selected from non-SOD1 FALS models, and identified ropinirole as a potential therapeutic candidate. Integration of the datasets acquired in this study permitted the visualization of molecular pathologies shared across a wide range of SALS models.

    A 69-year-old woman presented with heart failure and progressive muscle weakness and was diagnosed as anti-mitochondrial antibody (AMA) myositis with cardiac involvement. Immunosuppressive therapy with prednisolone and intravenous cyclophosphamide significantly improved the symptoms, hemodynamics, and cardiac function. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) T1 and T2 mapping showed elevated native T1, T2, and extracellular volume fractions during heart failure exacerbation (day 37) compared to pre-hospitalization values (10 months before admission) and follow-up conducted 6 and 12 months after admission. This case underscores the importance of comprehensive evaluation, such as serial CMR imaging and immunosuppressive therapy, in managing myocardial involvement in AMA-positive myositis.

    In Japan, there are no nationwide guidelines for presymptomatic testing for hereditary neuromuscular diseases. Although each institution has been dealing with this situation by using their own procedures to date, it is necessary to develop a standardized guidelines based on the Japanese medical system, because the development of disease-modifying therapies has progressed, and we are entering an era in which early diagnosis and early treatment are necessary. The guidelines presented here were devised by the Committee on Medical Genetics of the Japan Neurological Society. During their development, Delphi surveys were conducted among individuals with extensive experience in presymptomatic testing throughout Japan, with 42 experts participating in all three surveys, and a consensus-building process was undertaken. Finally, the guidelines consist of 45 recommendations for performing presymptomatic testing for adult-onset inherited neurological and muscular diseases.

    Objective The changes in the prevalence of acute meningitis during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic remain unclear. This study aimed to compare the prevalence of acute meningitis before and during the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the Japanese nationwide administrative medical payment system database, Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC), from 2016 to 2022. A total of 547 hospitals consistently and seamlessly offered DPC data during this period. The study period was divided into the following three periods: April 2016 to March 2018 (fiscal years 2016-2017), April 2018-March 2020 (2018-2019), and April 2020-March 2022 (2020-2021). Results Among the 28,161,806 patients hospitalized during the study period, 28,399 were hospitalized for acute meningitis: 16,678 for viral/aseptic type, 6,189 for bacterial type, 655 for fungal type, 429 for tuberculous, 2,310 for carcinomatous type, and 2,138 for other or unknown types of meningitis. A significant decrease during the pandemic was confirmed in viral (n=7,032, n=5,775, and n=3,871 in each period; p<0.0001) and bacterial meningitis (n=2,291, n=2,239, and n=1,659; p<0.0001) cases. Meanwhile, no decrease was observed in fungal meningitis (n=212, n=246, and n=197; p=0.056) or carcinomatous meningitis (n=781, n=795, and n=734; p=0.27). The decrease in the number of tuberculous meningitis cases was equivocal (n=166, n=146, and n=117; p=0.014). The decrease during the pandemic was more remarkable in younger populations aged <50 years than in older populations, both for viral and bacterial meningitis. Conclusion The number of hospitalized cases of acute meningitis clearly decreased during the COVID-19 pandemic, especially for viral and bacterial meningitis in younger populations aged <50 years.

    OBJECTIVE: Exact causes and mechanisms regulating the onset and progression in many chronic diseases, including multiple sclerosis (MS), remain uncertain. Until now, the potential role of random process based on stochastic models in the temporal course of chronic diseases remains largely unevaluated. Therefore, the present study investigated the applicability of stochastic models for the onset and disease course of MS. METHODS: Stochastic models with random temporal process in disease activity, underlying clinical relapse and/or subclinical brain atrophy, were developed. The models incorporated parameters regarding the distribution of temporal changes in disease activity and the drift constant. RESULTS: By adjusting the parameters (temporal change dispersion and drift constant) and the threshold for the onset of disease, the stochastic disease progression models could reproduce various types of subsequent disease course, such as clinically isolated syndrome (monophasic), relapsing-remitting MS, primary-progressive MS, and secondary-progressive MS. Furthermore, the disease prevalence and distribution of onset age could be also reproduced with stochastic models by adjusting the parameters. The models could further explain why approximately half of the patients with relapsing-remitting MS will eventually experience a transition to secondary-progressive MS. CONCLUSION: Stochastic models with random temporal changes in disease activity could reproduce the characteristic onset age distribution and disease course forms in MS. Further studies by using real-world data to underscore the significance of random process in the occurrence and progression of MS are warranted.

    The benefit of using adjunctive intravenous steroids (IVS) to reduce the neurological sequelae in bacterial meningitis remains inconclusive. This study evaluated the effect of IVS on improving the subsequent Activities of Daily Living (ADL) in bacterial meningitis by analyzing data from a large nationwide administrative medical database in Japan. Data from 1,132 hospitals, covered by the administrative Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC) payment system from 2016 to 2022, were evaluated. The ADL levels at admission and discharge were measured using the Barthel Index (BI). Out of the cumulative 47,366,222 patients hospitalized, 8,736 were diagnosed with acute bacterial meningitis and had BI data available. The BI at discharge, adjusted for sex, age, and BI at admission, was significantly better among those treated with IVS (p<0.0001). Exploratory subgroup analyses suggested that this benefit is expected across a broad spectrum of bacterial species. In summary, the use of IVS for improving the subsequent ADL level in bacterial meningitis was suggested.

    AIM: Acute meningitis encompasses bacterial, viral (aseptic), fungal, tuberculous, and carcinomatous meningitis. The rate and risks of mortality in each type remain uncertain. This study aimed to elucidate these aspects in each type of meningitis. METHODS: This study utilized Japan's nationwide administrative Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC) database. Patients with acute meningitis, treated at 1132 DPC-covered hospitals from 2016 to 2022, were enrolled. RESULTS: Among 47,366,222 cumulative hospitalized patients, 48,758 (0.10%) were hospitalized with acute meningitis. The types of meningitis were as follows: 10,338 with bacterial, 29,486 with viral/aseptic, 965 with fungal, 678 with tuberculous, and 3790 with carcinomatous meningitis. Bacterial and viral meningitis exhibited bimodal age distributions, with the first peak occurring at 0-9 years. The median onset age was below 50 years only in viral meningitis. The mortality rate was the highest in carcinomatous meningitis (39%), followed by fungal meningitis (21%), and the lowest in viral meningitis (0.61%). Mortality rates increased with age across all meningitis types, but this trend was less prominent in carcinomatous meningitis. The duration from admission to mortality was longer in fungal and tuberculous meningitis compared with other types. Staphylococcus aureus in bacterial meningitis (adjusted odds ratio 1.71; p = 0.0016) and herpes simplex virus in viral meningitis (adjusted odds ratio 1.53; p = 0.0467) exhibited elevated mortality rates. CONCLUSION: Distinct demographic profiles and mortality rates were observed among different meningitis types. The high mortality rates in less common types of meningitis emphasize the necessity to further optimize the required diagnostic and treatment strategies.

    OBJECTIVE: Electrolyte disorders are among the important conditions negatively affecting the disease course of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). Possible mechanisms may include renal tubular acidosis (RTA) accompanying Sjögren's syndrome (SS), syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH), and central diabetes insipidus (DI). Currently, the overlap profiles between these conditions remain uncertain. METHODS: This cross-sectional study collected data from the nationwide administrative Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC) database and evaluated the overlap profiles. RESULTS: Among the 28,285,908 individuals from 1203 DPC-covered hospitals, 8477 had NMOSD, 174108 had SS, 4977 had RTA, 7640 had SIADH, and 24,789 had central DI. Of those with NMOSD, 986 (12%) had SS. The odds ratio (OR) for a diagnosis of NMOSD in those with SS compared with those without was 21 [95% confidence interval (CI), 20-23]. Overlap between NMOSD and SS was seen both in males (OR, 28 [95% CI, 23-33]) and females (OR, 16 [15-17]) and was more prominent in the younger population. Among patients with SS, the prevalence of RTA was lower in patients with NMOSD compared with those without NMOSD. Patients with NMOSD showed a higher prevalence of SIADH (OR, 11 [7.5-17]; p < 0.0001) and DI (OR, 3.7 [2.4-5.3]; p < 0.0001). Comorbid SS in NMOSD was associated with a higher prevalence of DI. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with NMOSD are likely to have SS, SIADH, and central DI. RTA in SS does not facilitate the overlap between NMOSD and SS. SS in NMOSD may predispose patients to DI.

    White blood cell (WBC) count profiles in anti-aquaporin-4 antibody-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (AQP4-NMOSD) and anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) are still unknown. This study evaluated the total WBC count, differential WBC counts, monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in patients with these diseases within three months from an attack before acute treatment or relapse prevention and compared the profiles with those in matched volunteers or in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. AQP4-NMOSD patients (n = 13) had a higher neutrophil count (p = 0.0247), monocyte count (p = 0.0359), MLR (p = 0.0004), and NLR (p = 0.0037) and lower eosinophil (p = 0.0111) and basophil (p = 0.0283) counts than those of AQP4-NMOSD-matched volunteers (n = 65). Moreover, patients with MOGAD (n = 26) had a higher overall WBC count (p = 0.0001), neutrophil count (p < 0.0001), monocyte count (p = 0.0191), MLR (p = 0.0320), and NLR (p = 0.0002) than those of MOGAD-matched volunteers (n = 130). The three demyelinating diseases showed similar levels of the total and differential WBC counts; however, MOGAD and MS showed different structures in the hierarchical clustering and distributions on a two-dimensional canonical plot using differential WBC counts from the other three groups. WBC count profiles were similar in patients with MOGAD and MS but differed from profiles in matched volunteers or patients with AQP4-NMOSD.

    Disturbance of smell is often accompanied with common neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases. In addition, patients with head trauma, intracranial tumors, and hydrocephalus can also develop olfactory dysfunction, and some of which can improve with treatment of the underlying disease. In clinical practice, few patients complain of smell disturbances, thus olfactory dysfunction is often overshadowed by visible motor symptoms. Herein, we report a case of late-onset idiopathic aqueductal stenosis, a rare form of adult-onset hydrocephalus in which olfactory dysfunction and gait disturbance was markedly improved after endoscopic ventriculostomy. This case report is expected to make more physicians aware that hydrocephalus can cause olfactory dysfunction and that it can be corrected postoperatively. Furthermore, in addition to motor and neuropsychological function, olfactory function test might be useful for functional assessment before and after surgical treatment of hydrocephalus.

    Muscle contractile activity stimulates intramuscular recruitment of immune cells including neutrophils emerging to serve as a prerequisite for exerting proper muscular performance, although the underlying mechanisms and their contributions to myokine upregulation remain ill-defined. We previously reported that pharmacological inhibition of CX3CR1, a fractalkine receptor, dampens gnawing-dependent neutrophil recruitment into masseter muscles along with compromising their masticatory activity. By employing a running exercise model, we herein demonstrated that hindlimb muscles require collaborative actions of both CX3CR1- and CXCR2-mediated signals for achieving neutrophil recruitment, upregulation of myokines including interleukin (IL)-6, enhanced GLUT4 translocation, and adequate endurance capability. Mechanistically, we revealed that a combination of CX3CR1 and CXCR2 antagonists, i.e., AZD8797 and SB2205002, inhibits exercise-inducible ICAM-1 and fractalkine upregulations in the area of the endothelium and muscle-derived CXCL1 upregulation, both of which apparently contribute to the intramuscular neutrophil accumulation in working muscles. Intriguingly, we also observed that 2 h of running results in intramuscular augmentation of innate lymphoid type 2 cells (ILC2s) markers, i.e., Bcl11b mRNA levels and anti-GATA-3-antibody-positive signals, and that these effects are completely abolished by administration of the combination of CX3CR1 and CXCR2 antagonists. Taken together, our findings strongly suggest that the exercise-evoked regional interplay among working myofibers, the adjacent endothelium and recruited immune cells including neutrophils and possibly ILC2s, mediated through these local factors, plays a key role in organization of the intramuscular microenvironment supporting the performance of hindlimb muscles during running.

    Protein S deficiency causes spinal cord infarction in rare cases. We herein report the first case of severe cervicothoracic cord infarction in an adolescent with protein S deficiency. A 16-year-old boy presented with neck pain, four-limb paralysis, and numbness. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed spinal artery infarction in the C4 to Th4 area. Protein S antigen and activity were decreased. The patient was diagnosed with protein S deficiency-associated cervicothoracic cord infarction, which was treated with anticoagulation. Protein S deficiency should be considered as a potential cause of spinal cord infarction in young healthy patients and should be appropriately treated with anticoagulation.

    BACKGROUND: Primary Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease with varied neurological manifestations. SS is associated with anti-aquaporin-4 antibody (AQP4-IgG)-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), a demyelinating autoimmune disorder of the central nervous system (CNS). Intriguingly, there are reports of osmotic demyelinating syndrome (ODS), a supposedly non-inflammatory disorder, in the context of SS and renal tubular acidosis (RTA), both of which are not yet established risk factors for ODS. METHODS: A literature search was undertaken to identify case reports of ODS in patients with SS. Details of the clinical and laboratory features of these patients were compiled. Additionally, we searched for NMOSD in patients with SS. We looked for co-existing RTA in patients with SS-ODS as well as SS-NMOSD. We also screened for reports of ODS in RTA without underlying SS. RESULTS & DISCUSSION: We identified 15 patients (all women, median age 40 years) with ODS in SS, and all of these patients had comorbid RTA. There were only three reported cases of ODS in RTA without underlying SS. We identified a total of 67 patients with SS-NMOSD, of whom only 3 (4.5%) had RTA. Hence, unlike NMOSD, the development of ODS in SS requires a prolonged osmotic or electrolyte abnormality caused by the comorbid RTA. The 15 patients with ODS and SS -RTA, showed heterogeneous clinical manifestations and outcomes. The most common symptom was quadriparesis, seen in 14 of the 15 patients. Eleven of the 15 patients had one of the following features, either alone or in combination: worsening of the sensorium, extensor plantar response, dysphagia/dysarthria, and facial palsy. The latter four manifestations were present at the onset in 7 patients and later in the course of the illness in the remaining 4 patients. Ocular palsy was seen in only four of the 15 patients and was a late manifestation. One patient who had extensive long-segment myelitis and subsequent ODS died, but most patients recovered without significant sequelae. None had hyponatremia, while all patients had hypokalemia and/or hypernatremia. Hypokalemia causing nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) followed by rapid rise in sodium and the resultant osmotic stress could potentially explain the occurrence of ODS in SS-RTA. Aquaporin (AQP) in astrocytes is implicated in ODS, and renal AQP is downregulated in NDI. Antibodies against AQPs are present in some patients with SS. Defective AQP is therefore a common link underlying all the connected diseases, namely SS, NDI, and ODS, raising the possibility of immune-mediated AQP dysfunction in the pathogenesis. CONCLUSION: The hitherto unreported association between SS-RTA and ODS may implicate SS and/or RTA in the development of ODS. In the setting of SS-RTA, ODS must be suspected when a patient with flaccid quadriparesis does not respond to the correction of potassium or develops additional neurological features along with a rise in sodium. Defective functions of AQPs may be a possible mechanism linking demyelinating CNS lesions, SS, and RTA. Studies evaluating AQP functions and serum antibodies against AQPs in these conditions are warranted.

    A 23-year-old man presented with headache, fever, and urinary retention. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) antigen tests were positive, but SARS-CoV-2 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) results were negative. MRI showed long spinal cord lesions. Due to positive serum and cerebrospinal fluid myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) antibodies, we made the diagnosis of MOG-associated disease. We concluded that the antigen tests were false positives because SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG were not elevated. Although the mechanism behind the false-positive results is unclear, physicians should consider the possibility of a false-positive result in the SARS-CoV-2 antigen test.

    The physiological significance of skeletal muscle as a secretory organ is now well known but we can only speculate as to the existence of as-yet-unidentified myokines, especially those upregulated in response to muscle contractile activity. We first attempted to establish an "insert-chamber based in vitro exercise model" allowing the miniature but high cell-density culture state enabling highly developed contractile human myotubes to be readily obtained by applying electric pulse stimulation (EPS). By employing this in vitro exercise model, we identified R-spondin 3 (RSPO3) as a novel contraction-inducible myokine produced by cultured human myotubes. Contraction-dependent muscular RSPO3 mRNA upregulation was confirmed in skeletal muscles of mice subjected to sciatic nerve mediated in situ contraction as well as those of mice after 2 h of running. Pharmacological in vitro experiments demonstrated a relatively high concentration of metformin (millimolar range) to suppress the contraction-inducible mRNA upregulation of human myokines including RSPO3, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8 and CXCL1. Our data also suggest human RSPO3 to be a paracrine factor that may positively participate in the myogenesis processes of myoblasts and satellite cells. Thus, the "insert chamber-based in vitro exercise model" is a potentially valuable research tool for investigating contraction-inducible biological responses of human myotubes usually exhibiting poorer contractility development even in the setting of EPS treatment.

    BACKGROUND: Retinal atrophy in the chronic phase of optic neuritis (ON) in anti-aquaporin-4 antibody (AQP4-Ab)-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) and anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) remains unclear. METHODS: Patients with these diseases were repeatedly evaluated using optical coherence tomography (OCT) for the circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (cpRNFL) and macular ganglion cell complex (mGCC) in the ON-involved eyes during relapse-free period after the first ON episode before relapse. Optic MRI with short tau inversion recovery (STIR) sequences was further evaluated retrospectively. RESULTS: Twelve patients with MOGAD (20 eyes with ON-involvement) and 14 with AQP4-Ab-positive NMOSD (16 eyes with ON-involvement) were enrolled. The progression of retinal atrophy ≥12 months after onset was observed in AQP4-Ab-positive NMOSD, but was not apparent in MOGAD. A decrease in retinal thickness by the same amount results in more severe visual impairment in AQP4-Ab-positive NMOSD. On optic MRI, the residual STIR hyperintensity in the optic nerves remained in the chronic phase in almost all eyes with ON in both diseases. Optic nerve atrophy occurred in all evaluated ON-involved eyes in AQP4-Ab-positive NMOSD, while it was observed in half of ON-involved eyes in MOGAD. CONCLUSIONS: Progression of retinal atrophy in the chronic phase has been observed in patients with AQP4-Ab-positive NMOSD, while it remains uncertain in patients with MOGAD. The visual impairments upon similar levels of retinal atrophy would be worse in AQP4-Ab-positive NMOSD, possibly attributable in part to a higher incidence of optic nerve atrophy in this disease.

    BACKGROUND: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects motor neurons selectively. In particular, weakness in respiratory and swallowing muscles occasionally causes aspiration pneumonia and choking, which can be lethal. Surgery to prevent aspiration, which separates the trachea and esophagus, can reduce the associated risks. Central-part laryngectomy (CPL) is a relatively minimally invasive surgery to prevent aspiration. No studies have been conducted on the long-term outcomes of surgery to prevent aspiration in patients with ALS. This case series aimed to determine the long-term outcomes of surgery to prevent aspiration and the use of a continuous low-pressure aspirator in patients with ALS by evaluating the frequency of intratracheal sputum suctions performed per day, intra- and postoperative complications, oral intake data, and satisfaction of patients and their primary caregiver to predict improvement in patients' quality of life (QOL). METHODS: We report a case series of six patients with ALS who underwent CPL along with tracheostomy to prevent aspiration between January 2015 and November 2018. We evaluated their pre- and postoperative status and administered questionnaires at the time of last admission to the patients and their primary caregivers. RESULTS: The mean follow-up period after CPL was 33.5 months. Aerophagia was a common postoperative complication. The use of a continuous low-pressure aspirator resulted in reduced frequency of intratracheal sputum suctions. All cases avoided aspiration pneumonia. Oral intake was continued for 2-4 years after the tracheostomy and CPL. The satisfaction levels of the patient and primary caregiver were high. CONCLUSION: Our case series suggests that the use of a continuous low-pressure aspirator in patients undergoing CPL improves oral intake and reduces the frequency of intratracheal sputum suctions, which improves the QOL of patients with ALS and their families and caregivers. CPL and continuous low-pressure aspiration should be considered as a management option for ALS with significant bulbar and respiratory muscle weakness/dysfunction.

    Chronic renal failure and diabetes mellitus could also be risk factors of pseudoaneurysm of the internal carotid artery (ICA) due to malignant otitis externa (MOE). Although pseudoaneurysm of the ICA is a rarely encountered disease, it should always be taken into consideration when treating patients of MOE.

    OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to search for routine blood test biomarkers in patients with physical symptoms but without a diagnosis after comprehensive routine screening diagnostic examinations. METHODS: A total of 228 adults aged < 65 years who presented with physical complaints without known causes after comprehensive screening diagnostic examinations and 228 age- and sex-matched healthy controls without physical complaints were enrolled. The blood cell count data at the first hospital visit were compared between these groups. RESULTS: Total white blood cell (p = 0.2143), red blood cell (p = 0.8954), and platelet (p = 0.7716) counts did not differ between the groups. The monocyte count (p = 0.0014) and resultant monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (p < 0.0001) were higher in the symptomatic group, while the other white blood cell subtypes did not differ significantly between the two groups. In the symptomatic group, patients with a monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio > 0.25 were likely to have unexplained nonfocal physical symptoms (p < 0.0001). The characteristic findings included fatigability (p < 0.0001), prolonged slight fever (p = 0.0005), and widespread pain (p < 0.0001). The monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio level was correlated with the proportion of patients with unexplained nonfocal symptoms. CONCLUSION: The blood cell count profile was largely the same between healthy individuals and patients with unexplained physical symptoms. However, patients with unexplained nonfocal physical complaints were likely to show an elevated monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio, typically > 0.25.

    Calculating the crude or adjusted annualized relapse rate (ARR) and its confidence interval (CI) is often required in clinical studies to evaluate chronic relapsing diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders. However, accurately calculating ARR and estimating the 95% CI requires careful application of statistical approaches and basic familiarity with the exponential family of distributions. When the relapse rate can be regarded as constant over time or by individuals, the crude ARR can be calculated using the person-years method, which divides the number of all observed relapses among all participants by the total follow-up period of the study cohort. If the number of relapses can be modeled by the Poisson distribution, the 95% CI of ARR can be obtained by finding the 2.5% upper and lower critical values of the parameter λ as the mean. Basic familiarity with F-statistics is also required when comparing the ARR between two disease groups. It is necessary to distinguish the observed relapse rate ratio (RR) between two sample groups (sample RR) from the unobserved RR between their originating populations (population RR). The ratio of population RR to sample RR roughly follows the F distribution, with degrees of freedom obtained by doubling the number of observed relapses in the two sample groups. Based on this, a 95% CI of the population RR can be estimated. When the count data of the response variable is overdispersed, the negative binomial distribution would be a better fit than the Poisson. Adjusted ARR and the 95% CI can be obtained by using the generalized linear regression models after selecting appropriate error structures (e.g., Poisson, negative binomial, zero-inflated Poisson, and zero-inflated negative binomial) according to the overdispersion and zero-inflation in the response variable.

    Cranial nerve palsy associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is rare. We herein report the first Asian case of the immediate onset of isolated and unilateral abducens nerve palsy (ANP) accompanied with COVID-19 infection. A 25-year-old man developed diplopia one day after the COVID-19 symptom onset. Neurological examination revealed limitation of left eye abduction without ataxia and hyporeflexia. Negative anti-ganglioside antibody results and mild albuminocytological dissociation were noted. The patient was diagnosed with left ANP accompanied by COVID-19 infection. The ANP spontaneously recovered without treatment. ANP can develop during the early phase of COVID-19 infection and adversely affect patients' quality of life.

    The present study investigated the therapeutic effects of the curcumin derivative 3-[(1E)-2-(1H-indol-6-yl)ethenyl]-5-[(1E)-2-[2-methoxy-4-(2-pyridylmethoxy)phenyl]ethenyl]-1H-pyrazole (GT863) in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The inhibitory effect of GT863 on superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) aggregation was evaluated in cell-free assays. GT863 interfered with the conformational changes of the SOD1 protein and later, oligomeric aggregation. Furthermore, its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective effects were evaluated in cell-free and cultured cell assays. GT863 inhibited H2O2- and glutamate-induced cytotoxicity and activated an antioxidant responsive element pathway. Additionally, in vivo effects of GT863 in the ALS mice model were evaluated by its oral administration to H46R mutant SOD1 transgenic mice. Rotarod test showed that GT863 administration significantly slowed the progression of motor dysfunction in the mice. In addition, GT863 substantially reduced highly-aggregated SOD1, further preserving large neurons in the spinal cord of GT863-treated mice. Collectively, these results indicated that GT863 could be a viable therapeutic agent with multiple vital actions for the treatment of ALS.

    OBJECTIVE: The patterns of relapse and relapse-prevention strategies for anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) are not completely investigated. We compared the patterns of relapse in later stages of MOGAD with those of anti-aquaporin-4 antibody (AQP4-Ab)-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). METHODS: In this observational, comparative cohort study, 66 patients with MOGAD and 90 with AQP4-Ab-positive NMOSD were enrolled. We compared the patterns of relapse and annualized relapse rates (ARRs) in the first 10 years from disease onset, stratified by relapse-prevention treatments. RESULTS: Approximately 50% of the patients with MOGAD experienced relapses in the first 10 years. Among those not undergoing relapse-prevention treatments, ARRs in the first 5 years were slightly lower in MOGAD patients than in AQP4-Ab-positive NMOSD patients (MOGAD vs. AQP4-Ab NMOSD: 0.19 vs. 0.30; p = 0.0753). After 5 years, the ARR decreased in MOGAD patients (MOGAD vs. AQP4-Ab NMOSD: 0.05 vs. 0.34; p = 0.0001), with a 72% reduction from the first 5 years (p = 0.0090). Eight (61.5%) of the 13 MOGAD patients with more than 10-year follow-up from disease onset showed relapse 10 years after onset. Clustering in the timing and phenotype of attacks was observed in both disease patients. The effectiveness of long-term low-dose oral PSL for relapse prevention in patients with MOGAD has not been determined. CONCLUSIONS: The relapse risk in patients with MOGAD is generally lower than that in patients with AQP4-Ab-positive NMOSD, especially 5 years after onset. Meanwhile, relapses later than 10 years from onset are not rare in both diseases.

    Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a major demyelinating disease of the central nervous system; however, its exact mechanism is unknown. This study aimed to elucidate the profile of white blood cells (WBCs) in the acute phase of an MS attack. Sixty-four patients with MS at the time of diagnosis and 2492 age- and sex-adjusted healthy controls (HCs) were enrolled. Data regarding the blood cell counts were compared between the groups. The total WBC (p < 0.0001), monocyte (p < 0.0001), basophil (p = 0.0027), and neutrophil (p < 0.0001) counts were higher in the MS group than in the HC group, whereas the lymphocyte and eosinophil counts did not differ. Adjustments for the smoking status and body mass index yielded the same results. The total and differential WBC counts of the patients with MS did not correlate with the counts of T2 hyperintense brain lesions or the levels of neurological disturbance. In summary, patients with MS showed elevated counts of total WBCs, monocytes, basophils, and neutrophils at the time of diagnosis. However, the clinical relevance of these biomarkers in the context of the development and progression of MS remains unclear.

    INTRODUCTION: Optic neuritis (ON) is a major phenotype of clinical attack related to demyelinating neurological diseases of the central nervous system, including multiple sclerosis (MS), anti-aquaporin-4 (AQP4) antibody-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD), and anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD). As the concept of MOGAD is relatively new, the long-term visual outcomes after ON in MOGAD remains unclear. METHODS: To elucidate the long-term visual prognosis after ON in MOGAD, patients with MOGAD whose visual acuity were regularly followed for more than 5 years from the onset of ON were enrolled. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at nadir in the acute phase and at 1 and 5 years from onset was evaluated. The data from patients with MOGAD were compared with those from patients with MS or anti-AQP4-positive NMOSD. RESULTS: Twenty-three patients (31 ON-involved eyes) with MOGAD, 20 patients (24 ON-involved eyes) with MS, and 22 patients (24 ON-involved eyes) with anti-AQP4-positive NMOSD were evaluated. All BCVA at nadir, 1 year, and 5 years from the onset of ON were much worse in anti-AQP4-positive NMOSD than in MS (p = 0.0024) and MOGAD (p = 0.0014) patients. In MOGAD and anti-AQP4-positive NMOSD, the serum disease-specific antibody titer was not associated with the subsequent visual prognosis. Visual acuity had almost fully recovered spontaneously or shortly after initiating acute treatment in 22 of the 23 patients with MOGAD-ON. The administration of high-dose intravenous steroid therapy further facilitated early recovery of visual acuity. Meanwhile, a small fraction of patients with extensive optic nerve lesions involving the chiasma irreversibly experienced severe visual impairment despite appropriate acute treatment. CONCLUSION: Although a small fraction of patients with MOGAD who presented with extensive optic nerve lesions experienced irreversible severe visual impairment, the long-term visual outcomes after 5 years from ON in patients with MOGAD were generally as good as that in patients with MS and much better than that in patients with anti-AQP4-positive NMOSD.

    Sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) is a degenerative, intractable, inflammatory myopathy with an immune pathomechanism. We report on a case of a 44-year-old Japanese man who began developing progressive muscle weakness at age 40. Rheumatoid arthritis symptoms manifested at 43 with strongly positive anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies. Along with typical sIBM pathology, a muscle biopsy revealed dramatic inflammation with prominent perivascular B-cell infiltration forming ectopic lymphoid follicle-like structures (ELFLSs). Exome sequencing identified no causative variants of hereditary myopathy or immune disorders. A combination of immunotherapy slowed the progression of the muscular symptoms. This unusual form of sIBM, including earlier age at onset, a partial response to immunotherapy, and a histopathology presenting B-cell infiltrate with ectopic lymphoid follicle-like structures, indicates a possible association of rheumatoid arthritis and heterogeneity with the autoimmune involvement of sIBM. We review the clinical and pathological features of patients with rheumatoid arthritis associated sIBM in the literature.

    Fused in sarcoma/translated in liposarcoma (FUS) is a causative gene of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Mutated FUS causes accumulation of DNA damage and cytosolic stress granule (SG) formation, thereby motor neuron (MN) death. However, key molecular aetiology remains unclear. Here, we applied a novel platform technology, iBRN, "Non- biased" Bayesian gene regulatory network analysis based on induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived cell model, to elucidate the molecular aetiology using transcriptome of iPSC-derived MNs harboring FUSH517D. iBRN revealed "hub molecules", which strongly influenced transcriptome network, such as miR-125b-5p-TIMELESS axis and PRKDC for the molecular aetiology. Next, we confirmed miR-125b-5p-TIMELESS axis in FUSH517D MNs such that miR-125b-5p regulated several DNA repair-related genes including TIMELESS. In addition, we validated both introduction of miR-125b-5p and knocking down of TIMELESS caused DNA damage in the cell culture model. Furthermore, PRKDC was strongly associated with FUS mis-localization into SGs by DNA damage under impaired DNA-PK activity. Collectively, our iBRN strategy provides the first compelling evidence to elucidate molecular aetiology in neurodegenerative diseases.

    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of perampanel in patients with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (SALS). METHODS: This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, phase 2 clinical study was conducted at 12 sites. Patients with probable or definite ALS as defined by revised El Escorial criteria were enrolled. Sixty-six patients were randomly assigned (1:1:1) to receive placebo, 4 mg perampanel, or 8 mg perampanel daily for 48 weeks. Adverse events (AEs) were recorded throughout the trial period. The primary efficacy outcome was the change in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R) score after 48 weeks of treatment. RESULTS: One patient withdrew before starting the treatment. Of 65 patients included, 18 of 22 patients randomized to placebo (82%), 14 of 22 patients randomized to 4 mg perampanel (64%), and 7 of 21 patients randomized to 8 mg perampanel (33%) completed the trial. There was a significant difference in the change of ALSFRS-R scores [- 8.4 (95% CI - 13.9 to - 2.9); p = 0.015] between the placebo and the perampanel 8 mg group, primarily due to worsening of the bulbar subscore in the perampanel 8 mg group. Serious AEs were more frequent in the perampanel 8 mg group than in the placebo group (p = 0.0483). CONCLUSIONS: Perampanel was associated with a significant decline in ALSFRS-R score and was linked to worsening of the bulbar subscore in the 8 mg group.

    To clarify the influence of coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) on the care of muscular dystrophy patients, we performed a questionnaire survey that was posted on the internet on May 11, 2020. By the end of July 2020, 542 responses had been collected. Approximately 30% of patients postponed regular consultations, and one-quarter of patients who received consultation more than once a month used telephone consultations. Two of 84 patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy had reduced their steroid doses. A shortage of ventilator accessories and infection protection equipment occurred following the onset of COVID-19, and this shortage had a serious impact on medical care and infection prevention measures. Reductions in rehabilitation and other services, and avoidance of outings, led to a decrease in exercise and an increase in caregiver burden. Inpatients were restricted from going out and visiting family members. More than 20% of patients reported physical or mental complaints; however, few required treatment. COVID-19 has seriously affected the activities and quality of life of patients with muscular dystrophy. We will continue this survey and analyze the longitudinal changes.

    BACKGROUND: Hashimoto's encephalopathy with serum anti-NH2-terminal of α-enolase (NAE) antibodies occasionally displays clinical symptoms such as cerebellar ataxia and parkinsonism. We studied the frequency of anti-NAE antibodies in patients with Parkinson-plus syndrome. METHODS: We examined the positive rates of anti-NAE antibodies in 47 patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA), 29 patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), eight patients with corticobasal syndrome (CBS), and 18 patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) using conventional immunoblot analysis. RESULTS: Positive anti-NAE antibody rates of 31.9%, 10.3%, 50.0%, and 11.1% were reported in the MSA, PD, CBS, and PSP patients, respectively. The duration from onset to a wheelchair-bound state in seropositive MSA patients tended to be shorter than that in seronegative MSA patients. CONCLUSIONS: Anti-NAE antibodies are detected in some patients clinically diagnosed with MSA and CBS. Although its pathophysiological significance remains uncertain, serum anti-NAE antibodies might represent a prognostic marker in the clinical course of MSA.

    OBJECTIVE: To assess long-term (2 years) effects of bimagrumab in participants with sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM). METHODS: Participants (aged 36-85 years) who completed the core study (RESILIENT [Efficacy and Safety of Bimagrumab/BYM338 at 52 Weeks on Physical Function, Muscle Strength, Mobility in sIBM Patients]) were invited to join an extension study. Individuals continued on the same treatment as in the core study (10 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg, 1 mg/kg bimagrumab or matching placebo administered as IV infusions every 4 weeks). The co-primary outcome measures were 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) and safety. RESULTS: Between November 2015 and February 2017, 211 participants entered double-blind placebo-controlled period of the extension study. Mean change in 6MWD from baseline was highly variable across treatment groups, but indicated progressive deterioration from weeks 24-104 in all treatment groups. Overall, 91.0% (n = 142) of participants in the pooled bimagrumab group and 89.1% (n = 49) in the placebo group had ≥1 treatment-emergent adverse event (AE). Falls were slightly higher in the bimagrumab 3 mg/kg group vs 10 mg/kg, 1 mg/kg, and placebo groups (69.2% [n = 36 of 52] vs 56.6% [n = 30 of 53], 58.8% [n = 30 of 51], and 61.8% [n = 34 of 55], respectively). The most frequently reported AEs in the pooled bimagrumab group were diarrhea 14.7% (n = 23), involuntary muscle contractions 9.6% (n = 15), and rash 5.1% (n = 8). Incidence of serious AEs was comparable between the pooled bimagrumab and the placebo group (18.6% [n = 29] vs 14.5% [n = 8], respectively). CONCLUSION: Extended treatment with bimagrumab up to 2 years produced a good safety profile and was well-tolerated, but did not provide clinical benefits in terms of improvement in mobility. The extension study was terminated early due to core study not meeting its primary endpoint. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: Clinicaltrials.gov identifier NCT02573467. CLASSIFICATION OF EVIDENCE: This study provides Class IV evidence that for patients with sIBM, long-term treatment with bimagrumab was safe, well-tolerated, and did not provide meaningful functional benefit. The study is rated Class IV because of the open-label design of extension treatment period 2.

    The progression pattern of neurological disability among patients with anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disorders (MOGAD) was evaluated. Neurological disability was evaluated annually for 408 person-years in 50 patients. More than 30% of the patients had clinical relapses in the first 5 years. Disability progression independent of relapse activity (PIRA) was not seen, whereas a stepwise disability progression was observed after clinical attacks in some instances. Disability worsening was more frequent after relapses than after the onset episode (p < 0.01). Similar to patients with anti-aquaporin-4 antibodies, attack-related stepwise disability progression without PIRA is typical in MOGAD, suggesting the importance of relapse prevention.

    BACKGROUND: Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) are autoimmune neurological diseases of the central nervous system, which are characterized by the presence of serum anti-aquaporin-4 autoantibodies (AQP4-IgG). An association between Sjögren syndrome (SjS) and AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD has been proposed, but the rate of coexistence has not been determined. METHODS: In this study, 4,447 patients suspected of having NMOSD with acute neurological episodes were evaluated for the positivity of serum AQP4-IgG, serum SS-A/Ro antibody, and the presence of SjS-related symptoms (dry eye, dry mouth). RESULTS: Of the 4,447 patients, 1,651 were positive for serum AQP4-IgG, and the remaining 2,796 were negative. A significantly higher proportion of AQP4-IgG-positive patients were positive for serum anti-SSA/Ro antibody (26.3 vs. 4.5%; p < 0.0001) and anti-SSB/La antibody (7.2 vs. 1.2%; p < 0.0001) and had dry eye (9.1 vs .4.9%; p < 0.0001) and dry mouth symptoms (8.9 vs. 3.7%; p < 0.0001). More than 80% of the patients with SjS with acute neurological events such as myelitis or optic neuritis were AQP4-IgG positive. AQ4-IgG-positive patients with comorbid SjS showed a higher female rate (97.1 vs. 89.0%; p = 0.0062), a higher positivity rate for oligoclonal bands (15.4 vs. 7.5%; p = 0.029), and a higher relapse frequency (p = 0.027) than AQP4-IgG-positive patients without comorbid SjS. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of SjS is higher among AQP4-IgG-positive than AQP4-IgG-negative patients, with the potential prevalence of 10-20% at the diagnosis of AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD. Comorbid SjS is more prevalent in females, and it has a higher relapse frequency among AQP4-IgG-positive patients.

    Neurological complications following vaccinations are extremely rare, but cannot be eliminated. Here, we report the first case of unilateral oculomotor nerve palsy (ONP) with anti-GQ1b antibody after receiving the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 (BNT162b2) mRNA vaccine. A 65-year-old man developed diplopia and ptosis in the right eye 17 days after vaccination, without preceding infection. Neurological examination revealed mild blepharoptosis, limitation of adduction, and vertical gaze on the right side. Increased levels of anti-GQ1b ganglioside antibody in the serum and albuminocytologic dissociation in the cerebrospinal fluid were detected. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging showed swelling and enhancement of the right oculomotor nerve. The patient was diagnosed with right ONP accompanied with anti-GQ1b antibody, and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy for 5 days was administered. The limitation of adduction and vertical gaze improved, and ptosis markedly resolved after IVIG treatment. Given the temporal sequence of disease progression, laboratory findings, and a favorable response to IVIG, a causal relationship cannot be ruled out between the occurrence of ONP and COVID-19 immunization. Since immunomodulatory treatments significantly hasten the recovery and minimize the residual symptoms in anti-GQ1b antibody syndrome, clinicians should be aware of this clinical condition following COVID-19 vaccination.

    Introduction: We aimed to determine whether in vivo tau deposits and monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) detection using 18F-THK5351 positron emission tomography (PET) can assist in the differential distribution in patients with corticobasal syndrome (CBS), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and Alzheimer's disease (AD) and whether 18F-THK5351 retention of lesion sites in CBS and PSP can correlate with clinical parameters. Methods: 18F-THK5351 PET was performed in 35 participants, including 7, 9, and 10 patients with CBS, PSP, and AD, respectively, and 9 age-matched normal controls. In CBS and PSP, cognitive and motor functions were assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination-Revised, and Frontal Assessment Battery, Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Motor Score, and PSP Rating Scale. Results: 18F-THK5351 retention was observed in sites susceptible to disease-related pathologies in CBS, PSP, and AD. 18F-THK5351 uptake in the precentral gyrus clearly differentiated patients with CBS from those with PSP and AD. Furthermore, 18F-THK5351 uptake in the inferior temporal gyrus clearly differentiated patients with AD from those with CBS and PSP. Regional 18F-THK5351 retention was associated with the cognitive function in CBS and PSP. Conclusion: Measurement of the tau deposits and MAO-B density in the brain using 18F-THK5351 may be helpful for the differential diagnosis of tauopathies and for understanding disease stages.

    Dopa-responsive dystonia (DRD), also known as Segawa syndrome, is a phenotypically and genetically heterogeneous group of neurological disorders that typically presents as early-onset lower limb dystonia with diurnal fluctuation, and exhibits a marked, persistent response to levodopa. Heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in the guanosine triphosphate cyclohydrolase 1 (GCH1) are the most common cause of DRD. In addition to the classic form of the disease, there have been a number of studies addressing atypical clinical features of GCH1 related DRD with variable age of onset. This report describes a 37-year-old Japanese male patient with a 10-year history of focal upper limb dystonia that initially emerged as task-specific, guitarist's cramp. The dystonic symptoms responded very well to levodopa treatment, and genetic analysis identified a novel heterozygous mutation in the C-terminal catalytic domain of GCH1. Insufficient recognition of this treatable condition often leads to misdiagnosis, which causes delays in the patient receiving adequate dopamine replenishing therapy. A diagnostic trial with levodopa should be considered in all patients with relatively young-onset dystonia, whether they have classic features of DRD or not.

    Background:Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune-related neurological disorder of the central nervous system. Most patients with NMOSD have serum anti-aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin G antibodies (AQP4-IgG). In addition to optic neuritis and myelitis, other insidious symptoms such as depressive state and chronic fatigue in NMOSD are gradually being recognized. Methods: To elucidate the impact of low- to medium-dose oral prednisolone (PSL) as a relapse prevention therapy for psychiatric disturbances and chronic fatigue in NMOSD, we evaluated clinical data from 39 patients with AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD, along with the details of present and cumulative oral PSL dosage. Results: Thirty-six of the 39 patients were treated with low- to medium-dose oral PSL, and the mean and standard deviation of the present daily dose of oral PSL were 7.9 ± 4.0 mg/day. None of the patients were treated with a daily PSL dose of >15 mg. As a result, the disease duration and the untreated period before starting oral PSL showed weak to moderate correlations with the subsequent severities of psychiatric disturbance and fatigue level. Meanwhile, none of the other treatment-related variables evaluated, such as the present oral PSL daily dose, cumulative PSL dose, months of oral PSL administration, previous courses of steroid pulse therapy, and coadministered immunosuppressants, were correlated with these insidious symptoms. Conclusion: Our results suggest that the use of long-term low- to medium-dose oral PSL ≤15 mg daily for relapse prevention in AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD would not aggravate the psychiatric and fatigue conditions. On the contrary, early initiation of oral PSL for relapse prevention, together with significantly decreased relapse rate, alleviated the subsequent depressive state and fatigue from the disease.

    Two recent genetic studies reported that loss-of-function mutation of the C-terminal cargo-binding tail domain of the KIF5A gene cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The aim of this study is to investigate the frequency of KIF5A variants in Japanese patients with sporadic ALS. In total, 807 sporadic ALS patients and 191 normal controls from a multicenter ALS cohort in Japan were included. Whole exome sequencing on an Illumina HiSeq 2000/2500 sequencer was used to identify and select variants within the KIF5A gene. Thirteen patients harbored a nonsynonymous variant in the KIF5A gene; These were considered variants of uncertain significance. One patient harbored a novel splice-site variant (c.2993-3C>A) in the C-terminal cargo-binding tail domain of the KIF5A gene. Functional analysis of this variant revealed that it caused skipping of exon 27. The frequency of KIF5A mutations in Japanese patients with sporadic ALS was 0.12% (1/807). This study reports a novel loss-of-function variant in KIF5A, and indicates that loss-of-function variant in KIF5A is a rare cause of sporadic ALS in Japanese patients.

    This study aimed to determine the seasonal impact on the clinical onset of inflammatory neurological diseases of the central nervous system by analyzing the onset month with information on clinical manifestations in Japanese patients. As a result, patients with anti-aquaporin-4 antibodies (AQP4-IgG)-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) showed spring-summer predominance of the clinical onset. Conversely, patients with anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody (MOG-IgG)-associated disease showed autumn-winter predominance of the clinical onset. Both seasonal variations were irrespective of the clinical manifestation. Environmental factors with seasonal variation influence the development of neurological conditions related to AQP4-IgG and MOG-IgG.

    We evaluated the efficacy of rehabilitation therapy with Hybrid Assistive Limb® (HAL; hereafter HAL therapy) in three patients diagnosed with sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) who were hospitalized to undergo HAL therapy. Among them, one patient participated in eight courses and the other two in two courses of HAL therapy between 2017 and 2020. We determined the mean rate of improvement in two-minute walking distance and 6 m walking speed at the time of hospital discharge. After HAL therapy, we confirmed the patients' desire to continue the use of HAL. In one patient, we observed improvements of 146.0% and 120.0% in two-minute walk and 6 m walking speed, respectively, after the first course of HAL therapy; these values are 133.7% and 130% after the eighth course of HAL therapy. These values exceeded 90% in the other two patients after the second course of HAL therapy. HAL therapy maintained both quantity and quality of ambulation and showed positive psychological effects on patient conditions because it reduces exercise load and facilitates safety. While HAL therapy might be effective in maintaining and improving ambulation in patients with sIBM, we should consider to discontinue HAL therapy as it increased risk of falling.

    BACKGROUND: The association between routine laboratory findings, including cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers, and neurological outcomes in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) has not been fully elucidated. In this study, we evaluated blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis results at diagnosis and before treatment in patients with MS and assessed their correlations with neurological outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS: In this study, 38 consecutive patients with MS (36 with relapsing-remitting MS and 2 with primary progressive MS) were recruited. Before treatment, all patients underwent routine CSF analysis at the time of diagnosis, including evaluation of albumin and immunoglobulin G (IgG) levels. The association between laboratory data and neurological outcomes was comprehensively evaluated. Subsequent neurological outcome was assessed by using the Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) score at 1 year and 5 years after diagnosis and relapse frequency in the first year and in the first 5 years. RESULTS: The IgG level in the CSF (rho = 0.46, p = 0.004), oligoclonal band count (rho = 0.61, p = 0.006), ratio of IgG and total protein in CSF (rho = 0.59, p < 0.0001), and ratio of IgG and albumin in CSF (rho = 0.67, p < 0.0001) showed moderate to strong correlations with the subsequent EDSS score 1 year after diagnosis. These variables still showed significant correlations with EDSS 5 years later. Albumin and lactate dehydrogenase levels in CSF did not correlate with the subsequent EDSS score. Relapse frequency did not correlate with any of the studied serum and CSF biomarkers. CONCLUSION: IgG levels in CSF at MS diagnosis are significantly correlated with the level of neurological disability independent of the relapse frequency. Markers of intrathecal IgG synthesis, such as the IgG index, are useful in estimating the present and subsequent clinical severity in patients with MS.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating progressive motor neuron disease that affects people of all ethnicities. Approximately 90% of ALS cases are sporadic and thought to have multifactorial pathogenesis. To understand the genetics of sporadic ALS, we conducted a genome-wide association study using 1,173 sporadic ALS cases and 8,925 controls in a Japanese population. A combined meta-analysis of our Japanese cohort with individuals of European ancestry revealed a significant association at the ACSL5 locus (top SNP p = 2.97 × 10-8). We validated the association with ACSL5 in a replication study with a Chinese population and an independent Japanese population (1941 ALS cases, 3821 controls; top SNP p = 1.82 × 10-4). In the combined meta-analysis, the intronic ACSL5 SNP rs3736947 showed the strongest association (p = 7.81 × 10-11). Using a gene-based analysis of the full multi-ethnic dataset, we uncovered additional genes significantly associated with ALS: ERGIC1, RAPGEF5, FNBP1, and ATXN3. These results advance our understanding of the genetic basis of sporadic ALS.

    Variants of leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are the most common genetic cause of familial Parkinson's disease (PD). We aimed to investigate the genetic and clinical features of patients with PD and LRRK2 variants in Japan by screening for LRRK2 variants in three exons (31, 41, and 48), which include the following pathogenic mutations: p.R1441C, p.R1441G, p.R1441H, p.G2019S, and p.I2020T. Herein, we obtained data containing LRRK2 variants derived from 1402 patients with PD (653 with sporadic PD and 749 with familial PD). As a result, we successfully detected pathogenic variants (four with p.R1441G, five with p.R1441H, seven with p.G2019S, and seven with p.I2020T) and other rare variants (two with p.V1447M, one with p.V1450I, one with p.T1491delT, and one with p.H2391Q). Two risk variants, p.P1446L and p.G2385R, were found in 10 and 146 patients, respectively. Most of the patients presented the symptoms resembling a common type of PD, such as middle-aged onset, tremor, akinesia, rigidity, and gait disturbance. Dysautonomia, cognitive decline, and psychosis were rarely observed. Each known pathogenic variant had a different founder in our cohort proven by haplotype analysis. The generation study revealed that the LRRK2 variants p.G2019S and p.I2020T were derived 3500 and 1300 years ago, respectively. Our findings present overviews of the prevalence and distribution of LRRK2 variants in Japanese cohorts.

    The progressive patterns of neurological disability in multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) and the significance of clinical relapses to the progressions of neurological disability in these diseases have not been fully elucidated. In this study, to elucidate the impact of relapses to the progression of accumulated neurological disability and to identify the factors to affect the progression of neurological disability in MS and NMOSD, we followed 62 consecutive MS patients and 33 consecutive NMOSD patients for more than 5 years with the clinical symptoms, relapse occurrence, and Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) in the chronic phase. All enrolled MS patients were confirmed to be negative for serum anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody. As a result, patients with NMOSD showed significantly severer neurological disability at 5 years from onset than MS patients. Progression in EDSS score was almost exclusively seen after clinical attacks in NMOSD, whereas progression could be observed apart from relapses in MS. Neurological disability did not change without attacks in NMOSD, whereas it sometimes spontaneously improved or deteriorated apart from relapses in MS (p < 0.001). In patients with MS, those with responsible lesions primarily in spinal cord were more likely to show such spontaneous improvement. In conclusion, clinical deterioration in NMOSD patients is irreversible and almost exclusively takes place at the timing of clinical attacks with stepwise accumulation of neurological disability. Meanwhile, changes in EDSS score can be seen apart from relapses in MS patients. Neurological disability in MS patients is partly reversible, and the patients with disease modifying drugs sometimes present spontaneous improvement of the neurological disability.

    Fused in sarcoma (FUS) is genetically and clinicopathologically linked to frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We have previously reported that intranuclear interactions of FUS and splicing factor, proline- and glutamine-rich (SFPQ) contribute to neuronal homeostasis. Disruption of the FUS-SFPQ interaction leads to an increase in the ratio of 4-repeat tau (4R-tau)/3-repeat tau (3R-tau), which manifests in FTLD-like phenotypes in mice. Here, we examined FUS-SFPQ interactions in 142 autopsied individuals with FUS-related ALS/FTLD (ALS/FTLD-FUS), TDP-43-related ALS/FTLD (ALS/FTLD-TDP), progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration, Alzheimer's disease, or Pick's disease as well as controls. Immunofluorescent imaging showed impaired intranuclear co-localization of FUS and SFPQ in neurons of ALS/FTLD-FUS, ALS/FTLD-TDP, progressive supranuclear palsy and corticobasal degeneration cases, but not in Alzheimer's disease or Pick's disease cases. Immunoprecipitation analyses of FUS and SFPQ revealed reduced interactions between the two proteins in ALS/FTLD-TDP and progressive supranuclear palsy cases, but not in those with Alzheimer disease. Furthermore, the ratio of 4R/3R-tau was elevated in cases with ALS/FTLD-TDP and progressive supranuclear palsy, but was largely unaffected in cases with Alzheimer disease. We concluded that impaired interactions between intranuclear FUS and SFPQ and the subsequent increase in the ratio of 4R/3R-tau constitute a common pathogenesis pathway in FTLD spectrum diseases.

    We describe a 48-year-old man, suffering from difficulties in closing his eyes. He subsequently experienced progressive weakness in the facial and bulbar regions and upper limbs. His father and paternal grandmother had limb weakness as initial manifestations and were diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In the present case, neuroimaging and laboratory studies were unremarkable, and neurophysiological studies disclosed diffuse denervation. Genetic testing identified a heterozygous c.10A>G, p.K4E (K3E) variant in superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene, and he was diagnosed with familial ALS. In ALS, facial muscles are rarely involved as an initial symptom. The present patient is a first case of facial onset ALS with K3E variant in SOD1 gene. Two case reports identified facial palsy as an initial manifestation in familial ALS with C6G variant in SOD1 gene. Several ALS patients with variants in SOD1 gene may have facial onset history.

    Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is the most common motor neuron degenerative disease in adults, and TARDBP gene mutations have been reported to be involved in the pathogenesis. We present here how we generated the human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) line KEIOi001-A/SM4-4-5 from the peripheral blood of a 63-year-old male patient presenting the c.1035C > G heterozygous SNP mutation in the TARDBP gene locus. The established hiPSC line does not express the exogenous reprogramming factors oriP nor EBNA1 and shows no karyotypic abnormalities, while it expresses pluripotent stem cell markers, presents the SNP mutation and is capable of three-germ layers differentiation in vitro.

    Predisposing factors before the onset of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) have not been systematically evaluated by now. We investigated the detailed pre-onset history in consecutive NMOSD patients. Thirteen of the enrolled 53 NMOSD patients (24.5%) had accompanying autoimmune diseases, such as Sjögren's syndrome. History of malignancy was seen in 8 of the 53 patients (15.1%). Recent history of non-neurological clinical episodes, such as systemic allergic reaction, systemic infection, surgical operation, or traumatic injury, was seen in 23 of the 53 patients (43.4%). NMOSD patients are likely to have pre-onset history of other autoimmune diseases, malignancy, or recent non-neurological systemic conditions, which may predispose or trigger the onset of NMOSD.

    BACKGROUND: Cholinergic dysfunction plays a key role in cognitive dysfunction in Parkinson's disease (PD). Recent studies revealed that atrophy in the nucleus basalis of Meynert (NBM), the largest cholinergic nucleus in the basal forebrain, heralds cognitive decline in PD. Despite clinical importance of NBM atrophy in PD, clinical and radiological correlates of NBM atrophy remains to be elucidated. OBJECTIVE: We investigated the longitudinal changes in clinical and cerebral glucose metabolic characteristics in PD with atrophy in the NBM. METHODS: We analyzed the 3-year longitudinal data of 56 PD patients who underwent motor, nonmotor, and imaging evaluations at baseline. The patients were classified into PD with and without NBM atrophy based on the results of magnetic resonance imaging volumetry. We compared clinical characteristics and cerebral glucose metabolic changes between PD with and without NBM atrophy. RESULTS: At baseline, 20 patients and 36 patients were classified into PD with and without NBM atrophy groups, respectively. At follow-up, the data of the 14 PD patients in the NBM atrophy group and the 18 patients in the group without NBM atrophy completed full assessments and were available for the analysis. The PD with NBM atrophy group showed severe cognitive dysfunction and psychiatric symptoms both at baseline and follow-up. The NBM volume significantly correlated with motor and nonmotor functions. The PD with NBM atrophy showed significantly reduced metabolism in the parietal and occipital cortices both at baseline and follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Basal forebrain atrophy is a simple and sensible marker of faster disease progression and cortical hypometabolism in PD. © 2020 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.

    Interstitial fluid movement in the brain parenchyma has been suggested to contribute to sustaining the metabolism in brain parenchyma and maintaining the function of neurons and glial cells. The pulsatile hydrostatic pressure gradient may be one of the driving forces of this bulk flow. However, osmotic pressure-related factors have not been studied until now. In this prospective observational study, to elucidate the relationship between osmolality (mOsm/kg) in the serum and that in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), we simultaneously measured the serum and CSF osmolality of 179 subjects with suspected neurological conditions. Serum osmolality was 283.6 ± 6.5 mOsm/kg and CSF osmolality was 289.5 ± 6.6 mOsm/kg. Because the specific gravity of serum and CSF is known to be 1.024-1.028 and 1.004-1.007, respectively, the estimated average of osmolarity (mOsm/L) in the serum and CSF covered exactly the same range (i.e., 290.5-291.5 mOsm/L). There was strong correlation between CSF osmolality and serum osmolality, but the difference in osmolality between serum and CSF was not correlated with serum osmolality, serum electrolyte levels, protein levels, or quotient of albumin. In conclusion, CSF osmolarity was suggested to be equal to serum osmolarity. Osmolarity is not one of the driving forces of this bulk flow. Other factors such as hydrostatic pressure gradient should be used to explain the mechanism of bulk flow in the brain parenchyma. This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of the Tohoku University Hospital (approval No. IRB No. 2015-1-257) on July 29, 2015.

    INTRODUCTION: Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is characterized by the presence of serum anti-aquaporin 4 (AQP4) antibody. However, the significance of changes in the serum titer as a marker of disease severity or relapse prediction is unknown. METHODS: We collected clinical data and serum antibody titers by cell-based assay from 45 NMOSD patients for whom more than one titer measurement taken in 6-12 month interval periods was available. The AQP4-IgG titer was measured by a live cell-based assay method, and the serum titer levels between the acute phase and preceding chronic phase were compared. In addition, we evaluated the correlation between the serum titer and relapse frequency while following the clinical course of the enrolled NMOSD patients. RESULTS: Serum AQP4-IgG titer was not elevated in the acute phase, compared to that of the preceding chronic phase, irrespective of the clinical phenotypes. Moreover, there was no correlation between the titer at onset and relapse frequency in 10 years post-onset or neurological disability at 5 and 10 years after onset. The titer was slightly elevated several months before relapses in about half of the cases, but the change was trivial and may not be applicable for clinical use. CONCLUSION: Although evaluating the positivity of serum AQP4-IgG at the onset is necessary, the titer level does not reflect the ongoing disease activity or the following neurological prognosis. Repeated follow-up of titer levels may not be useful for the management of NMOSD patients.

    We aimed in this study to elucidate the impact of serum AQP4-IgG titer before starting treatments to the clinical manifestation of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD). Serum titer at the onset, measured using live cell-based assay method, did not correlate to the subsequent relapse rate or neurological prognosis. Patients with optic neuritis as the first attack showed significantly higher serum titer than patients with acute myelitis or area postrema syndrome, although the titer did not correlate to the visual prognosis. The result implies that the pathological mechanism of optic neuritis and acute myelitis could be different in NMOSD.

    OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to describe and clarify the factors affecting the prognosis of Japanese patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) undergoing tracheostomy invasive ventilation (TIV) therapy. METHODS: We conducted a prospective longitudinal observational case-control study using a multicentre registry. ALS patients who started TIV therapy after registration (TIV group) and those who did not receive TIV (non-TIV group) were included. We compared the survival time between the TIV group and the non-TIV group using a propensity score matching analysis and evaluated the prognostic factors in the TIV group. RESULTS: From February 2006 to January 2018, 190 patients in the TIV group and 1093 patients in the non-TIV group were included in this study. The mean age of disease onset and usage rate of gastrostomy and non-invasive ventilation therapy differed between the groups. In the propensity score matching analysis using known prognostic factors, the median overall survival time of the TIV group was significantly greater than that of the non-TIV group (11.33 years vs 4.61 years; p<0.001). Analysis using the Cox proportional hazard model suggested that older age of onset and respiratory onset was an independent factor for poor prognosis after starting TIV therapy. CONCLUSION: We showed that there was a significant difference of approximately 7 years in life expectancy between Japanese ALS patients who did and did not receive TIV therapy.

    A 66-year-old woman presented with upper abdominal pain and weakness in the limbs. She had bilateral uveitis and gastric ulcers. A neurological examination revealed tetraparesis and sensory disturbance in the right arm. A cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) examination showed polymorphonuclear pleocytosis with elevated pro-inflammatory cytokine levels. Magnetic resonance imaging showed brain lesions and a long spinal cord lesion. She was initially diagnosed with neuro-Behçet's disease and was treated with corticosteroids, resulting in no improvement. A gastric mucosa biopsy indicated T-cell lymphoma colocalizing with neutrophils. The cytokine-mediated neutrophilic inflammation probably caused characteristic CSF and histopathological features. It is noteworthy that T-cell lymphoma may present with CSF neutrophilic inflammation.

    Sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) is the most common idiopathic inflammatory myopathy, and several reports have suggested that mitochondrial abnormalities are involved in its etiology. We recruited 9 sIBM patients and found significant histological changes and an elevation of growth differential factor 15 (GDF15), a marker of mitochondrial disease, strongly suggesting the involvement of mitochondrial dysfunction. Bioenergetic analysis of sIBM patient myoblasts revealed impaired mitochondrial function. Decreased ATP production, reduced mitochondrial size and reduced mitochondrial dynamics were also observed in sIBM myoblasts. Cell vulnerability to oxidative stress also suggested the existence of mitochondrial dysfunction. Mitochonic acid-5 (MA-5) increased the cellular ATP level, reduced mitochondrial ROS, and provided protection against sIBM myoblast death. MA-5 also improved the survival of sIBM skin fibroblasts as well as mitochondrial morphology and dynamics in these cells. The reduction in the gene expression levels of Opa1 and Drp1 was also reversed by MA-5, suggesting the modification of the fusion/fission process. These data suggest that MA-5 may provide an alternative therapeutic strategy for treating not only mitochondrial diseases but also sIBM.

    The ubiquitin-proteasome system has the capacity to degrade polyubiquitinated proteins and plays an important role in many cellular processes. However, the role of Rpt3, a crucial proteasomal gene, has not been investigated in adult muscles in vivo. Herein, we generated skeletal-muscle-specific Rpt3 knockout mice, in which genetic inactivation of Rpt3 could be induced by doxycycline administration. The Rpt3-knockout mice showed a significant reduction by more than 90% in the expression of Rpt3 in adult muscles. Using this model, we found that proteasome dysfunction in adult muscles resulted in muscle wasting and a decrease in the myofiber size. Immunoblotting analysis showed that the amounts of ubiquitinated proteins were markedly higher in muscles of Rpt3-deficient mice than in those of the control mice. Analysis of the autophagy pathway in the Rpt3-deficient mice showed that the upregulation of LC3II, p62, Atg5, Atg7, and Beclin-1 in protein levels, which supposed to be compensatory proteolysis activation. Our results suggest that the proteasome inhibition in adult muscle severely deteriorates myofiber integrity and results in muscle atrophy.

    Objective: The purpose of this study was to elucidate the rapid impact of high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone pulse therapy (1,000 mg/day for 3 days) on the eventual visual prognosis in patients with serum anti-aquaporin-4 immunoglobulin G (AQP4-IgG)-positive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSDs) who had an attack of optic neuritis (ON). Methods: Data from 32 consecutive NMOSD patients (1 male and 31 female) with at least one ON attack, involving a total of 36 ON-involved eyes, were evaluated. The following variables at ON onset were evaluated: sex, age at the first ON episode, visual acuity at nadir, visual acuity after 1 year, duration from ON onset to treatment for an acute ON attack, cycles of high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone pulse therapy for the ON attack, and cycles of plasmapheresis for the ON attack. Among the 36 ON-involved eyes, 27 eyes were studied using orbital MRI with a short-T1 inversion recovery sequence and gadolinium-enhanced fat-suppressed T1 imaging before starting treatment in the acute phase. Results: In univariate analyses, a shorter duration from ON onset to the initiation of high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone pulse therapy favorably affected the eventual visual prognosis 1 year later (Spearman's rho = 0.50, p = 0.0018). The lesion length on orbital MRI was also correlated with the eventual visual prognosis (rho = 0.68, p < 0.0001). Meanwhile, the days to steroid pulse therapy and lesion length on orbital MRI did not show a significant correlation. These findings suggest that the rapidness of steroid pulse therapy administration affects the eventual visual prognosis independent of the severity of ON. In multivariate analysis, a shorter time from ON onset to the start of acute treatment (p = 0.0004) and a younger age at onset (p = 0.0071) were significantly associated with better visual outcomes. Conclusions: Rapid initiation of high-dose intravenous methylprednisolone pulse therapy is essential to preserve the eventual visual acuity in patients with serum AQP4-IgG-positive NMOSD. Once clinicians suspect acute ON with serum AQP4-IgG, swift administration of steroid pulse therapy before confirming the positivity of serum AQP4-IgG would be beneficial for preserving visual function.

    Mutations in the PNPLA2 gene cause neutral lipid storage disease with myopathy (NLSDM) or triglyceride deposit cardiomyovasculopathy. We report a detailed case study of a 53-year-old man with NLSDM. The PNPLA2 gene was analyzed according to the reported method. We summarized the clinical, laboratory, and genetic information of 56 patients, including our patient and 55 other reported patients with homozygous or compound heterozygous mutations in the PNPLA2 gene. We found a novel homozygous mutation (c.194delC) in the PNPLA2 gene that resulted in frameshift. The patient suffered from normal-tension glaucoma and pulmonary cysts, symptoms that are relatively common in the elderly but were not previously reported for this disease. Our summary confirmed that Jordan's anomaly, polymorphonuclear leukocytes with lipid accumulation, was the most consistent finding of this disease. Because this disease is potentially treatable, our results may help rapid and correct diagnosis.

    INTRODUCTION: Progressive brain atrophy, development of T1-hypointense areas, and T2-fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR)-hyperintense lesion formation in multiple sclerosis (MS) are popular volumetric data that are often utilized as clinical outcomes. However, the exact clinical interpretation of these volumetric data has not yet been fully established. METHODS: We enrolled 42 consecutive patients with MS who fulfilled the revised McDonald criteria of 2010. They were followed-up for more than 3 years from onset, and cross-sectional brain volumetry was performed. Patients with no brain lesions were excluded in advance from this study. For the brain volumetric data, we evaluated several parameters including age-adjusted gray-matter volume atrophy, age-adjusted white-matter volume atrophy, and T2-FLAIR lesion volume. The numbers of T1-hypointense and T2-FLAIR-hyperintense areas were also measured along the same timeline. The clinical data pertaining to disease duration, expanded disability status scale (EDSS), and MS severity score (MSSS) at the timing of volumetry were collected. RESULTS: Among the 42 patients with MS and brain lesions, the number of T1-hypointensity (rho = 0.51, p<0.001), gray-matter atrophy (rho = 0.40, p<0.01) and white-matter atrophy (rho = 0.49, p<0.001) correlated with the EDSS. T1-hypointensity count divided by FLAIR lesion volume correlated with the MSSS (rho = 0.60, p<0.001). Meanwhile, counts or volumes of FLAIR-hyperintense lesions were associated only with the times of past relapses, and did not correlate with present neurological disability level or ongoing disease activity. These findings were consistent regardless of the presence of spinal cord lesions. CONCLUSION: Numbers of T1-hypointensities and brain atrophy equally indicated the current neurological disability in MS. The number of T1-hypointensities divided by FLAIR lesion volume represented the clinical severity. The size or number of FLAIR lesions reflected earlier relapses but was not a good indicator of neurological disability or clinical severity.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an intractable adult-onset neurodegenerative disease that leads to the loss of upper and lower motor neurons (MNs). The long axons of MNs become damaged during the early stages of ALS. Genetic and pathological analyses of ALS patients have revealed dysfunction in the MN axon homeostasis. However, the molecular pathomechanism for the degeneration of axons in ALS has not been fully elucidated. This review provides an overview of the proposed axonal pathomechanisms in ALS, including those involving the neuronal cytoskeleton, cargo transport within axons, axonal energy supply, clearance of junk protein, neuromuscular junctions (NMJs), and aberrant axonal branching. To improve understanding of the global changes in axons, the review summarizes omics analyses of the axonal compartments of neurons in vitro and in vivo, including a motor nerve organoid approach that utilizes microfluidic devices developed by this research group. The review also discusses the relevance of intra-axonal transcription factors frequently identified in these omics analyses. Local axonal translation and the relationship among these pathomechanisms should be pursued further. The development of novel strategies to analyze axon fractions provides a new approach to establishing a detailed understanding of resilience of long MN and MN pathology in ALS.

    OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to elucidate the characteristics of clinical attacks in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSDs) with positive serum anti-aquaporin-4 antibody. Both the timing and sequential pattern of clinical types were analyzed. METHODS: A total of 69 patients with NMOSD were enrolled in this study, all of whom were treated at a single university hospital. All data regarding the clinical attacks (including types and date) together with other clinical information were collected. RESULTS: Analysis of clinical attacks from the enrolled patients showed that there were 2 distributional patterns of attack occurrence in each patient: (1) "clustered" occurrences, which occurred within 12 months from the previous attack, and (2) "nonclustered" intermittent occurrences, which occurred ≥12 months after the previous attack. These occurrences were regardless of the duration from the onset. During the "clustered" period, clinical attacks were more likely to show a similar clinical manifestation, such as optic neuritis or myelitis. After entering the "nonclustered" intermittent period, the relapses were of random clinical type, regardless of the previous clinical manifestation. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with NMOSD showed mixed periods of "clustered" occurrence with frequent attacks presenting with similar manifestations and "nonclustered" intermittent periods with sparse relapses. Approximately half of the relapses occurred during the "clustered" period within 12 months of the last clinical attack. Clinicians should pay special attention to whether the patients are presently in the "clustered" or "nonclustered" period to decide optimal relapse-preventive strategies.

    INTRODUCTION: Myasthenic crisis (MC) is a life-threatening condition in patients with myasthenia gravis (MG), for which thymectomy is known to be a predisposing factor. There are many preoperative factors that have been suggested to increase the occurrence of post-operative myasthenic crisis (POMC), but none have been unanimously concluded as definite risk factors. METHODS: We performed meta-analyses to assess preoperative risk factors for the occurrence of POMC in eligible case-control studies. RESULTS: A total of 10 articles were systematically reviewed and meta-analyses identified preoperative bulbar symptoms, a history of MC, and disease severity (p < .0001), as well as decreased vital capacity (p = .002), as risk factors for POMC. Among the identified risks, the presence of preoperative bulbar symptoms showed the least heterogeneity and was suggested to be the most reliable preoperative risks of POMC. CONCLUSION: Presence of preoperative bulbar symptoms is an easily discernable risk factor for the occurrence of POMC. A history of preoperative MC will further increase the risk of POMC. Patients with these risks require extra caution and should be closely monitored for POMC upon thymectomy.

    Introduction: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an intractable and incurable neurological disease. It is a progressive disease characterized by muscle atrophy and weakness caused by selective vulnerability of upper and lower motor neurons. In disease research, it has been common to use mouse models carrying mutations in responsible genes for familial ALS as pathological models of ALS. However, there is no model that has reproduced the actual conditions of human spinal cord pathology. Thus, we developed a method of producing human spinal motor neurons using human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and an innovative experimental technique for drug screening. As a result, ropinirole hydrochloride was eventually discovered after considering such results as its preferable transitivity in the brain and tolerability, including possible adverse reactions. Therefore, we explore the safety, tolerability and efficacy of ropinirole hydrochloride as an ALS treatment in this clinical trial. Methods: The ROPALS trial is a single-center double-blind randomized parallel group-controlled trial of the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of the ropinirole hydrochloride extended-release tablet (Requip CR) at 2- to 16-mg doses in patients with ALS. Twenty patients will be recruited for the active drug group (fifteen patients) and placebo group (five patients). All patients will be able to receive the standard ALS treatment of riluzole if not changed the dosage during this trial. The primary outcome will be safety and tolerability at 24 weeks, defined from the date of randomization. Secondary outcome will be the efficacy, including any change in the ALS Functional Rating Scale-Revised (ALSFRS-R), change in the Combined Assessment of Function and Survival (CAFS), and the composite endpoint as a sum of Z-transformed scores on various clinical items. Notably, we will perform an explorative search for a drug effect evaluation using the patient-derived iPSCs to prove this trial concept. Eligible patients will have El Escorial Possible, clinically possible and laboratory-supported, clinically probable, or clinically definite amyotrophic lateral sclerosis with disease duration less than 60 months (inclusive), an ALSFRS-R score ≥2 points on all items and age from 20 to 80 years. Conclusion: Patient recruitment began in December 2018 and the last patient is expected to complete the trial protocol in November 2020. Trial registration: Current controlled trials UMIN000034954 and JMA-IIA00397. Protocol version: version 1.6 (Date; 5/Apr/2019).

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease with an unknown mechanism of onset that predominantly impairs the upper and lower motor neurons. Components of the sensory and autonomic nervous system were once thought to be spared in the disease, but more recently they have been identified to be impaired at various levels. However, some of the motor neurons such as oculomotor, abducens, or pudendal nerves are spared even in the later stages of ALS. The mechanism of such complex and heterogeneous neuronal loss in typical ALS is still unknown. In this study, the characteristics of the nervous system involved in the pathogenesis of ALS were comprehensively reviewed. As a result, the direction of the axon in the anatomical position, rather than the functional type or length of the axon, was suggested to contribute the most to the onset of ALS. This finding suggested that downward directed axons, represented by motor neurons, require extra energy to move waste or unnecessary substances from the synapse side to the neural cell body with retrograde fast axonal transport. Based on this theory, the extra energy that is required in vertically directed axons due to the effect of gravity was mathematically estimated. As a result, several percent more adenosine triphosphate molecules were suggested to be consumed in vertical axonal transport by gravity, compared to those consumed in transverse axonal transport. Because most of the motor neurons project downward in the anatomical position, unretrieved waste will gradually sediment in axon terminals by gravity, which could eventually result in motor neuron-dominant neuronal loss. Although the theory that gravity is one of the mechanisms responsible for ALS is still hypothetical, it is theoretically reasonable and compatible with the clinical manifestations of the disease. Further basic research studies with cultured neurons or animal models are necessary to confirm the association between gravity and the onset of ALS.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult-onset motor neuron disease characterized by a progressive decline in motor function. Genetic analyses have identified several genes mutated in ALS patients, and one of them is Cyclin F gene (CCNF), the product of which (Cyclin F) serves as the substrate-binding module of a SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein (SCF) ubiquitin ligase complex. However, the role of Cyclin F in ALS pathogenesis has remained unclear. Here, we show that Cyclin F binds to valosin-containing protein (VCP), which is also reported to be mutated in ALS, and that the two proteins colocalize in the nucleus. VCP was found to bind to the NH2-terminal region of Cyclin F and was not ubiquitylated by SCFCyclin F in transfected cells. Instead, the ATPase activity of VCP was enhanced by Cyclin F in vitro. Furthermore, whereas ALS-associated mutations of CCNF did not affect the stability of Cyclin F or disrupt formation of the SCFCyclin F complex, amino acid substitutions in the VCP binding region increased the binding ability of Cyclin F to VCP and activity of VCP as well as mislocalization of the protein in the cytoplasm. We also provided evidence that the ATPase activity of VCP promotes cytoplasmic aggregation of transactivation responsive region (TAR) DNA-binding protein 43, which is commonly observed in degenerating neurons in ALS patients. Given that mutations of VCP identified in ALS patients also increase its ATPase activity, our results suggest that Cyclin F mutations may contribute to ALS pathogenesis by increasing the ATPase activity of VCP in the cytoplasm, which in turn increases TDP-43 aggregates.

    BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Corticobasal syndrome (CBS) is pathologically characterized by tau deposits in neuronal and glial cells and by reactive astrogliosis. In several neurodegenerative disorders, 18 F-THK5351 has been observed to bind to reactive astrocytes expressing monoamine oxidase B. In this study, the aim was to investigate the progression of disease-related pathology in the brains of patients with CBS using positron emission tomography with 18 F-THK5351. METHODS: Baseline and 1-year follow-up imaging were acquired using magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography with 18 F-THK5351 in 10 subjects: five patients with CBS and five age-matched normal controls (NCs). RESULTS: The 1-year follow-up scan images revealed that 18 F-THK5351 retention had significantly increased in the superior parietal gyrus of the patients with CBS compared with the NCs. The median increases in 18 F-THK5351 accumulation in the patients with CBS were 6.53% in the superior parietal gyrus, 4.34% in the precentral gyrus and 4.33% in the postcentral gyrus. In contrast, there was no significant increase in the regional 18 F-THK5351 retention in the NCs. CONCLUSIONS: Longitudinal increases in 18 F-THK5351 binding can be detected over a short interval in the cortical sites of patients with CBS. A monoamine oxidase B binding radiotracer could be useful in monitoring the progression of astrogliosis in CBS.

    Background: Several types of physical examinations are used in the diagnosis of meningitis, including nuchal rigidity, jolt accentuation, Kernig's sign, and Brudzinski's sign. Jolt accentuation was reported to have sensitivity of nearly 100% and to be highly efficient for excluding meningitis, but more recent studies showed that a number of patients with meningitis may present negative in this test. Methods: We systematically reviewed studies on the above-mentioned physical examination tests and performed meta-analysis of their diagnostic characteristics to evaluate the clinical usefulness. Nine studies, comprising a total of 599 patients with pleocytosis in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and 1216 patients without CSF pleocytosis, were enrolled in the analysis. Results: Jolt accentuation showed a decent level of odds ratio (3.62; 99% confidence interval (CI): 1.13-11.60, P = 0.004) comparable to that in nuchal rigidity (2.52; 1.21-5.27, P = 0.001) for the correct prediction of CSF pleocytosis among subjects with suspected meningitis. The estimated sensitivity was relatively high (40%-60%) in nuchal rigidity or jolt accentuation tests. On the other hand, Kernig's and Brudzinski's signs exhibited relatively low sensitivity (20%-30%). The estimated specificity was higher in Kernig's and Brudzinski's signs (85%-95%) than in nuchal rigidity or jolt accentuation tests (65%-75%). Conclusion: Approximately half of the patients with meningitis may not present typical meningeal signs upon physical examination. Combining several examinations for the detection of meningeal signs may decrease the risk of misdiagnosis.

    Contraction of cultured myotubes with application of electric pulse stimulation (EPS) has been utilized for investigating cellular responses associated with actual contractile activity. However, cultured myotubes derived from human subjects often exhibit relatively poor EPS-evoked contractile activity, resulting in minimal contraction-inducible responses (i.e. myokine secretion). We herein describe an "in vitro exercise model", using hybrid myotubes comprised of human myoblasts and murine C2C12 myoblasts, exhibiting vigorous contractile activity in response to EPS. Species-specific analyses including RT-PCR and the BioPlex assay allowed us to separately evaluate contraction-inducible gene expressions and myokine secretions from human and mouse constituents of hybrid myotubes. The hybrid myotubes, half of which had arisen from primary human satellite cells obtained from biopsy samples, exhibited remarkable increases in the secretions of human cytokines (myokines) including interleukins (IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, and IL16), CXC chemokines (CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL5, CXCL6, CXCL10), CC chemokines (CCL1, CCL2, CCL7, CCL8, CCL11, CCL13, CCL16, CCL17, CCL19, CCL20, CCL21, CCL22, CCL25, CCL27), and IFN-γ in response to EPS-evoked contractile activity. Together, these results indicate that inadequacies arising from human muscle cells are effectively overcome by fusing them with murine C2C12 cells, thereby supporting the development of contractility and the resulting cellular responses of human-origin muscle cells. Our approach, using hybrid myotubes, further expands the usefulness of the "in vitro exercise model".

    We report the neuropathology of a patient with a family history of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and a p.N345K mutation in the transactivation response DNA-binding protein 43 kDa (TDP-43) gene (TARDBP). A 62-year-old man had bulbar palsy with progressive weakness in the extremities. Neurological examination revealed evident upper motor neuron signs and lower motor neuron involvement corroborated by needle electromyography. The patient was diagnosed as having probable ALS according to the revised El Escorial diagnostic criteria and was eventually diagnosed with familial ALS. At 65 years of age, respiratory failure became critical, and artificial ventilation was initiated. At 70 years of age, the patient died from a urinary tract infection. Histopathological investigation showed Bunina bodies in the remaining motor neurons and anterolateral funicular myelin pallor in the spinal cord. TDP-43-positive cytoplasmic inclusions were quite rare in the spinal cord motor neurons, being predominantly present in the glial cells (especially astrocytes) of the spinal cord anterior horn. Although the reason for the preferential vulnerability of spinal glial cells to TARDBP mutations remains unclear, our findings indicate that TARDBP p.N345K mutation could have an influence on the topography of TDP-43 aggregation.

    BACKGROUND: Sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) is the most prevalent muscle disease in elderly people, affecting the daily activities. sIBM is progressive with unknown cause and without effective treatment. In 2015, sIBM was classified as an intractable disease by the Japanese government, and the treatment cost was partly covered by the government. This study aimed to examine the changes in the number of patients with sIBM over the last 10 years and to elucidate the cross-sectional profile of Japanese patients with sIBM. METHODS: The number of sIBM patients was estimated through a reply-paid postcard questionnaire for attending physicians. Only patients diagnosed as "definite" or "probable" sIBM by clinical and biopsy sIBM criteria were included in this study (Lancet Neurol 6:620-631, 2007, Neuromuscul Disord 23:1044-1055, 2013). Additionally, a registered self-administered questionnaire was also sent to 106 patients who agreed to reply via their attending physician, between November 2016 and March 2017. RESULTS: The number of patients diagnosed with sIBM for each 5-year period was 286 and 384 in 2011 and 2016, respectively. Inability to stand-up, cane-dependent gait, inability to open a plastic bottle, choking on food ingestion, and being wheelchair-bound should be included as sIBM milestones. Eight patients were positive for anti-hepatitis C virus antibody; three of them were administered interferon before sIBM onset. Steroids were administered to 33 patients (31.1%) and intravenous immunoglobulin to 46 patients (43.4%). From 2016 to 2017, total of 70 patients applied for the designated incurable disease medical expenses subsidy program. Although the treatment cost was partly covered by the government, many patients expressed psychological/mental and financial anxieties. CONCLUSIONS: We determined the cross-sectional profile of Japanese patients with sIBM. Continuous support and prospective surveys are warranted.

    In this report, we present the successful treatment of five consecutive cases of premenopausal women suffering from severe menstrual migraine with tokishakuyakusan (TSS). Two patients were complicated by tension-type headache (TTH), and another patient was by medication overuse headache (MOH). The effects of triptans were limited in all of them. After starting TSS, they showed dramatic improvement in the severity and frequency of their attacks. The patients with TTH and MOH also showed dramatic improvement in their symptoms. TSS could be a promising alternative choice for patients with intractable menstruation-related headaches that are refractory to conventional treatments, including triptans.

    BACKGROUND: Riluzole is the only approved oral drug for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We performed a retrospective study including ALS patients treated with riluzole, focusing on adverse events. METHODS: Patients diagnosed with ALS according to the revised El Escorial criteria (World Federation of Neurology) in our center and who were administered 50 mg oral riluzole twice daily between January 2011 and September 2017 and followed up for at least 6 months from treatment initiation or until death were included. Data regarding sex, age, disease type, initial symptoms, biochemical analyses performed before and after riluzole administration, and medical history were collected. In case of withdrawal, cause of discontinuation and durations of disease and drug administration were recorded. RESULTS: A total of 92 cases were enrolled. Riluzole administration was discontinued in 20 cases (21.7%). The most frequent reason for discontinuation was elevated liver enzymes (n = 5, 5.4%), followed interstitial pneumonia (IP), nausea and appetite loss, dizziness, general malaise, tongue paresthesia, and urinary urgency. In two cases, administration was discontinued primarily because of progression of bulbar palsy. All adverse events occurred within 6 months from treatment initiation and improved soon after its discontinuation. Three IP cases developed severe respiratory failure and required steroid treatment. CONCLUSION: Riluzole administration was discontinued in 20 cases among total of 92 cases. Careful follow-up is important for the first six months after the initiation of riluzole administration, including through interviews, chemical analyses, and chest X-rays, as required.

    BACKGROUND: The central nervous system was previously thought to draw oxygen and nutrition from the arteries and discharge carbon dioxide and other metabolic wastes into the venous system. At present, the functional role of cerebrospinal fluid in brain metabolism is not fully known. METHODS: In this prospective observational study, we performed gas analysis on venous blood and cerebrospinal fluid simultaneously acquired from 16 consecutive preoperative patients without any known neurological disorders. RESULTS: The carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO2) (p < 0.0001) and lactic acid level (p < 0.001) in the cerebrospinal fluid were significantly higher than those in the peripheral venous blood, suggesting that a considerable proportion of metabolic carbon dioxide and lactic acid is discharged from the central nervous system into the cerebrospinal fluid. The oxygen partial pressure (pO2) was much higher in the cerebrospinal fluid than in the venous blood, corroborating the conventional theory of cerebrospinal fluid circulatory dynamics. The pCO2 of the cerebrospinal fluid showed a strong negative correlation with age (R = - 0.65, p = 0.0065), but the other studied variables did not show significant correlation with age. CONCLUSION: Carbon dioxide and lactic acid are discharged into the circulating cerebrospinal fluid, as well as into the venules. The level of carbon dioxide in the cerebrospinal fluid significantly decreased with age.

    The tropomyosin-receptor kinase fused gene (TFG) has recently been implicated in several distinct hereditary disorders, including the autosomal-recessive form of complicated hereditary spastic paraplegia called SPG57. Previously, three homozygous variants of the TFG gene were reported in five families with SPG57, in which early onset spastic paraplegia, optic atrophy, and peripheral neuropathy were variably identified. Here, we present the first Japanese patient with SPG57, and have added a homozygous p.Ile66Thr variant as the fourth SPG57 genotype.

    Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma (ENKTL) is an aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma that typically develops in the upper aerodigestive tract. We encountered an ENKTL patient who presented with generalized muscle weakness with eyelid swelling, diplopia, and facial edema. A muscle biopsy revealed lymphocytic infiltration without significant atypia; some lymphocytes formed granuloma-like structures. Although the initial response to steroids was encouraging, an ulcerative eruption appeared in the thigh, and a skin biopsy revealed lymphocytes with atypia. A re-analysis of the muscle biopsy with additional immunohistochemistry revealed neoplastic NK/T lymphocytes in the granulomatous structures. Our case highlights the significance of re-evaluating muscle biopsy specimens in cases of atypical myositis.

    Adult muscle stem cells (satellite cells) are required for adult skeletal muscle regeneration. A proper balance between quiescence, proliferation, and differentiation is essential for the maintenance of the satellite cell pool and their regenerative function. Although the ubiquitin-proteasome is required for most protein degradation in mammalian cells, how its dysfunction affects tissue stem cells remains unclear. Here, we investigated the function of the proteasome in satellite cells using mice lacking the crucial proteasomal component, Rpt3. Ablation of Rpt3 in satellite cells decreased proteasome activity. Proteasome dysfunction in Rpt3-deficient satellite cells impaired their ability to proliferate, survive and differentiate, resulting in defective muscle regeneration. We found that inactivation of proteasomal activity induced proliferation defects and apoptosis in satellite cells. Mechanistically, insufficient proteasomal activity upregulated the p53 pathway, which caused cell-cycle arrest. Our findings delineate a critical function of the proteasome system in maintaining satellite cells in adult muscle.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult-onset, fatal neurodegenerative syndrome characterized by the systemic loss of motor neurons with prominent astrocytosis and microgliosis in the spinal cord and brain. Astrocytes play an essential role in maintaining extracellular microenvironments that surround motor neurons, and are activated by various insults. Growing evidence points to a non-cell autonomous neurotoxicity caused by chronic and sustained astrocytic activation in patients with neurodegenerative diseases, including ALS. However, the mechanisms that underlie the harmful effects of astrocytosis in patients with ALS remain unresolved. We focused on bone morphogenetic proteins as a major soluble factor that promotes astrocytogenesis and its activation in the adult spinal cord. In a transgenic rat model with ALS-linked mutant Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase gene, BMP4 was progressively up-regulated in reactive astrocytes of the spinal ventral horns, whereas the BMP-antagonist noggin was decreased in association with neuronal degeneration. Continuous intrathecal noggin supplementation after disease onset significantly ameliorated motor dysfunction symptoms, neurogenic muscle atrophy, and extended survival of symptomatic ALS model rats, despite lack of deterrence against neuronal death itself. The exogenous noggin inhibited astrocytic hypertrophy, astrocytogenesis, and neuroinflammation by inactivating both Smad1/5/8 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways. Moreover, intrathecal infusion of a Bmp4-targeted antisense oligonucleotides and provided selective Bmp4 knockdown in vivo, which suppressed astrocyte and microglia activation, reproducing the aforementioned results by noggin treatment. Collectively, we clarified the involvement of BMP4 in the processes of excessive gliosis that exacerbate the disease progression of the ALS model rats. Our study demonstrated that BMP4, with its downstream signaling, might be a novel therapeutic target for disease-modifying therapies in ALS.

    Distal symmetric polyneuropathy, represented by chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, is a popular neurological condition. Some cases are known to be associated with genetic mutations or serum auto-antibodies, but the exact mechanisms in most cases are unknown. Recently, osmotic factors have been suggested to trigger some neurological disorders, such as neuromyelitis optica. The aim of the present study was to assess the possible association of osmotic factors in the pathogenesis of distal polyneuropathy. We prospectively measured the serum levels of osmolality, electrolytes, total protein, albumin, blood urea nitrogen, glucose, and osmolality gap in the patients with acute distal polyneuropathy before treatments (n = 12) and those with other comprehensive neurological disorders such as multiple sclerosis and neurodegenerative diseases (n = 176). Then, we compared each osmotic fraction between the two groups. As a result, all of the 12 patients with acute distal polyneuropathy, including 4 patients with chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, showed abnormally high or low values of osmolality gap, compared to the others (p < 0.0001, F-test). In the patients with other diseases, there were 2 patients with abnormally high osmolality gap values, which were attributable to their hyperlipidemia or high titer of serum autoantibody unrelated to polyneuropathy. In conclusion, serum osmolality gap would be elevated or decreased in the acute phase of distal symmetric polyneuropathy. Osmotic imbalance between the serum and nerve cells, based on abnormal excess or deficit of some unidentified serum osmolytes, may be one of the mechanisms in symmetric polyneuropathy with unknown causes.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by a selective loss of upper and lower motor neurons. Recent studies have shown that mutations in SQSTM1 are linked to ALS. SQSTM1 encodes SQSTM1/p62 that regulates not only autophagy via the association with MAP1LC3/LC3 and ubiquitinated proteins but also the KEAP1-NFE2L2/Nrf2 anti-oxidative stress pathway by interacting with KEAP1. Previously, we have demonstrated that loss of SQSTM1 exacerbates disease phenotypes in a SOD1H46R-expressing ALS mouse model. To clarify the effects of SQSTM1 overexpression in this model, we generated SQSTM1 and SOD1 H46R double-transgenic (SQSTM1;SOD1 H46R ) mice. SQSTM1;SOD1 H46R mice exhibited earlier disease onset and shorter lifespan than did SOD1 H46R mice. Conversely, disease progression after the onset rather slightly but significantly slowed in SQSTM1;SOD1 H46R mice. However, there were observable differences neither in the number of Nissl positive neurons nor in the distribution of ubiquitin-positive and/or SQSTM1-positive aggregates between SOD1 H46R and SQSTM1;SOD1 H46R mice. It was noted that these protein aggregates were mainly observed in neuropil, and partly localized to astrocytes and/or microglia, but not to MAP2-positive neuronal cell bodies and dendrites at the end-stage of disease. Nonetheless, the biochemically-detectable insoluble SQSTM1 and poly-ubiquitinated proteins were significantly and progressively increased in the spinal cord of SQSTM1;SOD1 H46R mice compared to SOD1 H46R mice. These results suggest that overexpression of SQSTM1 in SOD1 H46R mice accelerates disease onset by compromising the protein degradation pathways.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurological disease, and the etiology of sporadic ALS is generally unknown. The TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) gene was identified as an ALS gene contributing to a predisposition toward ALS. To reveal the frequency and characteristics of variants of the TBK1 gene in sporadic ALS patients in Japan, we analyzed the TBK1 gene by exome sequencing in a large Japanese cohort of 713 sporadic ALS patients and 800 controls. We identified known or potentially toxic rare variants of TBK1 gene in 9 patients (1.26%) with sporadic ALS, including 4 novel missense variants (p.V23I, p.H322R, p.R358C, and p.T478I) and 3 loss-of-function variants (p.R357X, p.P378_I379del, and p.T419_G420del). The odds ratio between sporadic ALS patients and controls was 10.2 (p = 0.008, 95% confidence interval = 1.67-62.47). These findings support the contribution of TBK1 to the etiology of sporadic ALS in Japanese patients.

    Mutations in DNAJC13 gene have been linked to familial form of Parkinson's disease (PD) with Lewy pathology. DNAJC13 is an endosome-related protein and believed to regulate endosomal membrane trafficking. However, the mechanistic link between DNAJC13 mutation and α-synuclein (αSYN) pathology toward neurodegeneration remains poorly understood. In this study, we showed that PD-linked N855S-mutant DNAJC13 caused αSYN accumulation in the endosomal compartment, presumably due to defective cargo trafficking from the early endosome to the late and/or recycling endosome. In vivo experiments using human αSYN transgenic flies showed that mutant DNAJC13 not only increased the amount of insoluble αSYN in fly head but also induced dopaminergic neurodegeneration, rough eye phenotype and age-dependent locomotor impairment. Together, these findings suggest that DNAJC13 mutation perturbs multi-directional endosomal trafficking, resulting in the aberrant endosomal retention of αSYN, which might predispose to the neurodegenerative process that leads to PD.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult-onset neurodegenerative disease characterized by loss of motor neurons. We have recently identified SOD1 and FUS mutations as the most common causes in a consecutive series of 111 familial ALS pedigrees in Japan. To reveal possible genetic causes for the remaining 51 patients with familial ALS (45 pedigrees), we performed targeted next-generation sequencing of 35 known ALS/motor neuron diseases-related genes. Known variants in ANG, OPTN, SETX, and TARDBP were identified in 6 patients. A novel likely pathogenic homozygous variant in ALS2 was identified in 1 patient. In addition, 18 patients harbored 1-3 novel variants of uncertain significance, whereas hexanucleotide repeat expansions in C9ORF72 were not detected using repeat-primed polymerase chain reaction. Collectively, in our Japanese cohort, the frequencies of SOD1, FUS, SETX, TARDBP, ANG, and OPTN variants were 32%, 11%, 2%, 2%, 1%, and 1%, respectively. These findings indicate considerable differences in the genetic variations associated with familial ALS across populations. Further genetic analyses and functional studies of novel variants are warranted.

    <p>Therapeutic development in rare diseases shares many challenges, such as incomplete understanding of natural history to design clinical trials, and difficulties of recruiting patients to participation. To secure clinical studies and clinical research at national university hospitals in Japan, National University Hospital Clinical Research Promotion Initiative (NUH–CRPI) founded in October 2012. The topic group (TG2) promotes information sharing, standardization and coordination, and discusses the network of national university hospitals. They set up the web system of feasibility study assessing capacity in university hospitals for clinical trials in rare diseases. The support and training program for translational research that was initiated by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology was launched in 2007. The second term of Translational Research Network Program started in 2012. In this program, they are setting up the patient registry system for screening for eligibility and enrollment in clinical trials.</p>

    Mutations in the fused in sarcoma (FUS) gene can cause amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and FUS gene mutations have been reported in sporadic ALS patients with basophilic cytoplasmic inclusions. Deficiency of adenosine deaminase acting on RNA 2 (ADAR2), an enzyme that specifically catalyzes GluA2 Q/R site-editing, has been reported in considerable proportions of spinal motor neurons of the majority of sporadic ALS patients. We describe the relationship between GluA2 Q/R site-editing efficiency and FUS-positive inclusions in a patient with FUS(P525L). A 24-year-old woman with ALS presented with basophilic cytoplasmic inclusions, significantly reduced GluA2 Q/R site-editing efficiency in the spinal motor neurons, and markedly decreased ADAR2 mRNA levels. Neuropathologic examination showed that not all spinal motor neurons expressed ADAR2 and revealed FUS-positive cytoplasmic inclusions in motor neurons irrespective of ADAR2 immunoreactivity. There were no phosphorylated transactive response (TAR) DNA-binding protein 43 kDa (TDP-43)-positive inclusions, indicating that there was no tight correlation between ADAR2 deficiency and TDP-43 deposition. ADAR2 deficiency can occur in ALS patients with a FUS(P525L) mutation and is unrelated to the presence of FUS-positive inclusions. FUS-associated ALS may share neurodegenerative characteristics with classical sporadic ALS.

    INTRODUCTION: We investigated possible genotype-phenotype correlations in Japanese patients with familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) carrying fused in sarcoma/translated in liposarcoma (FUS/TLS) gene mutations. METHODS: A consecutive series of 111 Japanese FALS pedigrees were screened for copper/zinc superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) and FUS/TLS gene mutations. Clinical data, including onset age, onset site, disease duration, and extramotor symptoms, were collected. RESULTS: Nine different FUS/TLS mutations were found in 12 pedigrees. Most of the patients with FUS/TLS-linked FALS demonstrated early onset in the brainstem/upper cervical region, and relatively short disease duration. A few mutations exhibited phenotypes that were distinct from typical cases. Frontotemporal dementia was present in 1 patient. CONCLUSIONS: This study revealed a characteristic phenotype in FUS/TLS-linked FALS patients in Japan. FUS/TLS screening is recommended in patients with FALS with this phenotype.

    <p>We occasionally observe long-term remission of cervical dystonia after several botulinum toxin treatments. However, botulinum toxin transiently acts on neuromuscular junctions. We herein report that a cervical dystonia patient with spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 could have long-term remission as a result of the depression of hypermetabolism in the bilateral putamen and primary sensorimotor cortex after botulinum toxin therapy. We suggest that botulinum toxin impacts the central nervous system, causing prolonged improvement through the normalization of basal ganglia circuits in addition to its effects at neuromuscular junctions. </p>

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a late-onset motor neuron disorder. Although its neuropathology is well understood, the cellular and molecular mechanisms are yet to be elucidated due to limitations in the currently available human genetic data. In this study, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) from two familial ALS (FALS) patients with a missense mutation in the fused-in sarcoma (FUS) gene carrying the heterozygous FUS H517D mutation, and isogenic iPSCs with the homozygous FUS H517D mutation by genome editing technology. These cell-derived motor neurons mimicked several neurodegenerative phenotypes including mis-localization of FUS into cytosolic and stress granules under stress conditions, and cellular vulnerability. Moreover, exon array analysis using motor neuron precursor cells (MPCs) combined with CLIP-seq datasets revealed aberrant gene expression and/or splicing pattern in FALS MPCs. These results suggest that iPSC-derived motor neurons are a useful tool for analyzing the pathogenesis of human motor neuron disorders.

    BACKGROUND: Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) plays an important role in the pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and regulates the stress response through two CRH receptors (R1 and R2). Previously, we reported that a CRHR1 gene polymorphism (rs110402, rs242924, and rs7209436) and haplotypes were associated with IBS. However, the association between the CRHR2 gene and IBS was not investigated. We tested the hypothesis that genetic polymorphisms and haplotypes of CRHR2 are associated with IBS pathophysiology and negative emotion in IBS patients. METHODS: A total of 142 IBS patients and 142 healthy controls participated in this study. Seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the CRHR2 gene (rs4722999, rs3779250, rs2240403, rs2267710, rs2190242, rs2284217, and rs2284220) were genotyped. Subjects' psychological states were evaluated using the Perceived-Stress Scale, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and the Self-Rating Depression Scale. RESULTS: We found that rs4722999 and rs3779250, located in intronic region, were associated with IBS in terms of genotype frequency (rs4722999: P = 0.037; rs3779250: P = 0.017) and that the distribution of the major allele was significantly different between patients and controls. There was a significant group effect (controls vs. IBS), and a CRHR2 genotype effect was observed for three psychological scores, but the interaction was not significant. We found a haplotype of four SNPs (rs4722999, rs3779250, rs2240403, and rs2267710) and two SNPs (rs2284217 and rs2284220) in strong linkage disequilibrium (D' > 0.90). We also found that haplotypes of the CRHR2 gene were significantly different between IBS patients and controls and that they were associated with negative emotion. CONCLUSION: Our findings support the hypothesis that genetic polymorphisms and haplotypes of CRHR2 are related to IBS. In addition, we found associations between CRHR2 genotypes and haplotypes and negative emotion in IBS patients and controls. Further studies on IBS and the CRH system are warranted.

    UNLABELLED: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common functional disorder with distinct features of stress-related pathophysiology. A key mediator of the stress response is corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH). Although some candidate genes have been identified in stress-related disorders, few studies have examined CRH-related gene polymorphisms. Therefore, we tested our hypothesis that single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in CRH-related genes influence the features of IBS. METHODS: In total, 253 individuals (123 men and 130 women) participated in this study. They comprised 111 IBS individuals and 142 healthy controls. The SNP genotypes in CRH (rs28364015 and rs6472258) and CRH-binding protein (CRH-BP) (rs10474485) were determined by direct sequencing and real-time polymerase chain reaction. The emotional states of the subjects were evaluated using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Perceived Stress Scale, and the Self-rating Depression Scale. RESULTS: Direct sequencing of the rs28364015 SNP of CRH revealed no genetic variation among the study subjects. There was no difference in the genotype distributions and allele frequencies of rs6472258 and rs10474485 between IBS individuals and controls. However, IBS subjects with diarrhea symptoms without the rs10474485 A allele showed a significantly higher emotional state score than carriers. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that the CRH and CRH-BP genes have no direct effect on IBS status. However, the CRH-BP SNP rs10474485 has some effect on IBS-related emotional abnormalities and resistance to psychosocial stress.

    OBJECTIVE: To investigate the genetic causes of suspected dysferlinopathy and to reveal the genetic profile for myopathies with dysferlin deficiency. METHODS: Using next-generation sequencing, we analyzed 42 myopathy-associated genes, including DYSF, in 64 patients who were clinically or pathologically suspected of having dysferlinopathy. Putative pathogenic mutations were confirmed by Sanger sequencing. In addition, copy-number variations in DYSF were investigated using multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification. We also analyzed the genetic profile for 90 patients with myopathy with dysferlin deficiency, as indicated by muscle specimen immunohistochemistry, including patients from a previous cohort. RESULTS: We identified putative pathogenic mutations in 38 patients (59% of all investigated patients). Twenty-three patients had DYSF mutations, including 6 novel mutations. The remaining 16 patients, including a single patient who also carried the DYSF mutation, harbored putative pathogenic mutations in other genes. The genetic profile for 90 patients with dysferlin deficiency revealed that 70% had DYSF mutations (n = 63), 10% had CAPN3 mutations (n = 9), 2% had CAV3 mutations (n = 2), 3% had mutations in other genes (in single patients), and 16% did not have any identified mutations (n = 14). CONCLUSIONS: This study clarified the heterogeneous genetic profile for myopathies with dysferlin deficiency. Our results demonstrate the importance of a comprehensive analysis of related genes in improving the genetic diagnosis of dysferlinopathy as one of the most common subtypes of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. Unresolved diagnoses should be investigated using whole-genome or whole-exome sequencing.

    OBJECTIVE: To identify the genetic cause of isolated inclusion body myopathy (IBM) with autosomal dominant inheritance in 2 families. METHODS: Genetic investigations were performed using whole-exome and Sanger sequencing of the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 gene (hnRNPA1). The clinical and pathologic features of patients in the 2 families were evaluated with neurologic examinations, muscle imaging, and muscle biopsy. RESULTS: We identified a missense p.D314N mutation in hnRNPA1, which is also known to cause familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, in 2 families with IBM. The affected individuals developed muscle weakness in their 40s, which slowly progressed toward a limb-girdle pattern. Further evaluation of the affected individuals revealed no apparent motor neuron dysfunction, cognitive impairment, or bone abnormality. The muscle pathology was compatible with IBM, lacking apparent neurogenic change and inflammation. Multiple immunohistochemical analyses revealed the cytoplasmic aggregation of hnRNPA1 in close association with autophagosomes and myonuclei. Furthermore, the aberrant accumulation was characterized by coaggregation with ubiquitin, sequestome-1/p62, valosin-containing protein/p97, and a variety of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs). CONCLUSIONS: The present study expands the clinical phenotype of hnRNPA1-linked multisystem proteinopathy. Mutations in hnRNPA1, and possibly hnRNPA2B1, will be responsible for isolated IBM with a pure muscular phenotype. Although the mechanisms underlying the selective skeletal muscle involvement remain to be elucidated, the immunohistochemical results suggest a broad sequestration of RBPs by the mutated hnRNPA1.

    We present a case of epilepsy with multiple types of focal seizures that were misdiagnosed as psychiatric disorders. A 20-year-old female patient presented with a variety of episodes, including loss of consciousness, deja vu, fear, delusion of possession, violent movements, and generalized convulsions. Each of these symptoms appeared in a stereotypic manner. She was initially diagnosed with a psychiatric disorder and treated with psychoactive medications, which had no effect. Long-term video electroencephalography revealed that her episodes of violent movement with impaired consciousness and secondarily generalized seizure were epileptic events originating in the right hemisphere. High-field brain magnetic resonance imaging for detecting subtle lesions revealed bilateral lesions from periventricular nodular heterotopia. Her final diagnosis was right hemispheric focal epilepsy. Carbamazepine administration was started, which successfully controlled all seizures. The present case demonstrates the pitfall of diagnosing focal epilepsy when it presents with multiple types of psychiatric aura. Epilepsy should thus be included in differential diagnoses, considering the stereotypic nature of symptoms, to avoid misdiagnosis.

    Anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) antibodies are known to be associated with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), stiff-person syndrome, and other neurological symptoms including temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), known as autoimmune epilepsy. We treated four patients with TLE who had elevated titers of serum anti-GAD antibody (anti-GAD-Ab), higher than 100 U/ml. Three of the four patients started to have epileptic seizures in their 5th or 6th decade. Characteristic symptoms suggesting encephalitis or encephalopathy were absent at onset of these symptoms, which led to delayed diagnosis. All four patients developed two or three of cerebellar ataxia, neuropsychological impairment, and IDDM, by several years or decades after onset of TLE, even after seizure freedom in two patients. These abnormalities were indicators for suspecting the involvement of anti-GAD-Ab in the pathogenesis. Anti-GAD-Ab levels in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were measured, which detected elevated CSF/serum anti-GAD-Ab ratio (≥ 1.0), suggesting intrathecal anti-GAD-Ab synthesis, in three of the four patients. The TLE symptoms were somewhat prolonged, but three of the four patients eventually achieved seizure freedom after immunotherapies with combinations of two or three anti-epileptic drugs. Serum anti-GAD Ab is recommended to be measured in patients with middle-aged onset TLE. Moreover, immune-modulating therapies including steroid pulse and intravenous immunoglobulin therapies could have ameliorated neurological complications, even in the chronic phase.

    The ubiquitin-proteasome and autophagy-lysosome pathways are the two major routes of protein and organelle clearance. The role of the proteasome pathway in mammalian muscle has not been examined in vivo. In this study, we report that the muscle-specific deletion of a crucial proteasomal gene, Rpt3 (also known as Psmc4), resulted in profound muscle growth defects and a decrease in force production in mice. Specifically, developing muscles in conditional Rpt3-knockout animals showed dysregulated proteasomal activity. The autophagy pathway was upregulated, but the process of autophagosome formation was impaired. A microscopic analysis revealed the accumulation of basophilic inclusions and disorganization of the sarcomeres in young adult mice. Our results suggest that appropriate proteasomal activity is important for muscle growth and for maintaining myofiber integrity in collaboration with autophagy pathways. The deletion of a component of the proteasome complex contributed to myofiber degeneration and weakness in muscle disorders that are characterized by the accumulation of abnormal inclusions.

    GNE myopathy is an autosomal recessive muscular disorder caused by mutations in the gene encoding the key enzyme in sialic acid biosynthesis, UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE/MNK). Here, we report two siblings with myopathy with rimmed vacuoles and congenital thrombocytopenia who harbored two compound heterozygous GNE mutations, p.V603L and p.G739S. Thrombocytopenia, which is characterized by shortened platelet lifetime rather than ineffective thrombopoiesis, has been observed since infancy. We performed exome sequencing and array CGH to identify the underlying genetic etiology of thrombocytopenia. No pathogenic variants were detected among the known causative genes of recessively inherited thrombocytopenia; yet, candidate variants in two genes that followed an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance, including previously identified GNE mutations, were detected. Alternatively, it is possible that the decreased activity of GNE/MNK itself, which would lead to decreased sialic content in platelets, is associated with thrombocytopenia in these patients. Further investigations are required to clarify the association between GNE myopathy and the pathogenesis of thrombocytopenia.

    Demyelinating polyneuropathy associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is quite rare. We herein present the case of a woman patient with a 12-year history of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP)-like polyneuropathy who later developed bulbar palsy and respiratory failure. The autopsy findings revealed neuronal loss in the anterior horn and primary motor cortex with degeneration of the corticospinal tracts. Diffuse phosphorylated TAR DNA-binding protein of 43 kDa inclusions were observed in the anterior horn and cerebral cortices, including the temporal lobe. The final diagnosis was ALS with CIDP-like polyneuropathy. Compared with other reports of ALS with CIDP-like polyneuropathy, the present patient was younger and followed a relatively long clinical course, with no upper motor neuron signs.

    Sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) is an intractable and progressive skeletal muscle disease of unknown etiology and without effective treatment. Muscle biopsy typically reveals endomysial inflammation, invasion of mononuclear cells into non-necrotic fibers and rimmed vacuoles, suggesting inflammation and degeneration co-exist as part of the pathomechanism. We estimated the prevalence of sIBM in Japan is 1,000-1,500 in 2003 and an increase in the number of sIBM in Japan in the decade. TDP43 can be a whole mark of the muscle pathology of sIBM patients. Anti-cytosolic 5'-nucleotidase 1A (cN1A) can be a diagnostic marker of sIBM. Elucidation of the pathomechanism of sIBM is the most important to therapy. We'll also review the status of the therapeutics and clinical trials in sIBM.

    Myofibrillar myopathy (MFM) is a group of chronic muscular disorders that show the focal dissolution of myofibrils and accumulation of degradation products. The major genetic basis of MFMs is unknown. In 1993, our group reported a Japanese family with dominantly inherited cytoplasmic body myopathy, which is now included in MFM, characterized by late-onset chronic progressive distal muscle weakness and early respiratory failure. In this study, we performed linkage analysis and exome sequencing on these patients and identified a novel c.90263G>T mutation in the TTN gene (NM_001256850). During the course of our study, another groups reported three mutations in TTN in patients with hereditary myopathy with early respiratory failure (HMERF, MIM #603689), which is characterized by overlapping pathologic findings with MFMs. Our patients were clinically compatible with HMERF. The mutation identified in this study and the three mutations in patients with HMERF were located on the A-band domain of titin, suggesting a strong relationship between mutations in the A-band domain of titin and HMERF. Mutation screening of TTN has been rarely carried out because of its huge size, consisting of 363 exons. It is possible that focused analysis of TTN may detect more mutations in patients with MFMs, especially in those with early respiratory failure.

    OBJECTIVE AND METHODS: Dysferlin encoded by DYSF deficiency leads to two main phenotypes, limb girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) 2B and Miyoshi myopathy. To reveal in detail the mutational and clinical features of LGMD2B in Japan, we observed 40 Japanese patients in 36 families with LGMD2B in whom dysferlin mutations were confirmed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Three mutations (c.1566C>G, c.2997G>T and c.4497delT) were relatively more prevalent. The c.2997G>T mutation was associated with late onset, proximal dominant forms of dysferlinopathy, a high probability that muscle weakness started in an upper limb and lower serum creatine kinase (CK) levels. The clinical features of LGMD2B are as follows: (1) onset in the late teens or early adulthood, except patients homozygous for the c.2997G>T mutation; (2) lower limb weakness at onset; (3) distal change of lower limbs on muscle CT at an early stage; (4) impairment of lumbar erector spinal muscles on muscle CT at an early stage; (5) predominant involvement of proximal upper limbs; (6) preservation of function of the hands at late stage; (7) preservation of strength in neck muscles at late stage; (8) lack of facial weakness or dysphagia; (9) avoidance of scoliosis; (10) hyper-Ckaemia; (11) preservation of cardiac function; and (12) a tendency for respiratory function to decline with disease duration. It is important that the late onset phenotype is found with prevalent mutations.

    Basophilic inclusions (BIs) are pathological features of a subset of frontotemporal lobar degeneration disorders, including sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and familial ALS (FALS). Mutations in the fused in sarcoma/translocated in liposarcoma (FUS/TLS) gene have recently been identified as a cause of FALS. The FUS/TLS-immunoreactive inclusions are consistently found in cases of frontotemporal lobar degeneration with BIs; however, the association between ALS cases with BIs and FUS/TLS accumulation is not well understood. We used immunohistochemistry to analyze 3 autopsy cases of FALS with the FUS/TLS mutation and with BIs using anti-FUS/TLS antibodies. The disease durations were 1, 3, and 9 years. As the disease duration becomes longer, there were broader distributions of neuronal and glial FUS/TLS-immunoreactive inclusions. As early as 1 year after the onset, BIs, neuronal cytoplasmic inclusions and glial cytoplasmic inclusions were found in the substantia nigra in addition to the anterior horn of the spinal cord. Glial cytoplasmic inclusions are found earlier and in a wider distribution than neuronal cytoplasmic inclusions. The distribution of FUS/TLS-immunoreactive inclusions in FUS/TLS-mutated FALS with BIs was broader than that of BIs alone, suggesting that the pathogenetic mechanism may have originated from the FUS/TLS proteinopathy.

    Hereditary neuropathy with liability to pressure palsy (HNPP) is characterized by recurrent focal neuropathies, which usually become symptomatic in the second or third decade of life. However, clinical phenotypic heterogeneity among patients with HNPP has recently been reported. Certain patients show polyneuropathy-type diffuse nerve injuries, whereas others remain asymptomatic at older ages. We present two cases of elderly-onset bilateral peroneal nerve palsies with diffuse muscle weakness in the lower limbs and glove-and-stocking type sensory disturbance. Both patients were diagnosed with HNPP by genetic analyses that detected deletions of chromosome 17p11.2 in peripheral myelin protein 22 genes. Their clinical courses suggested that the Japanese sitting style termed 'seiza', a way of sitting on the floor with the lower legs crossed under the thighs, was a precipitating factor for the bilateral peroneal nerve palsies.

    BACKGROUND: Glucosamine (UDP-N-acetyl)-2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE) myopathy, also called distal myopathy with rimmed vacuoles (DMRV) or hereditary inclusion body myopathy (HIBM), is a rare, progressive autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the GNE gene. Here, we examined the relationship between genotype and clinical phenotype in participants with GNE myopathy. METHODS: Participants with GNE myopathy were asked to complete a questionnaire regarding medical history and current symptoms. RESULTS: A total of 71 participants with genetically confirmed GNE myopathy (27 males and 44 females; mean age, 43.1±13.0 (mean±SD) years) completed the questionnaire. Initial symptoms (e.g., foot drop and lower limb weakness) appeared at a mean age of 24.8±8.3 years. Among the 71 participants, 11 (15.5%) had the ability to walk, with a median time to loss of ambulation of 17.0±2.1 years after disease onset. Participants with a homozygous mutation (p.V572L) in the N-acetylmannosamine kinase domain (KD/KD participants) had an earlier disease onset compared to compound heterozygous participants with mutations in the uridine diphosphate-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) 2-epimerase and N-acetylmannosamine kinase domains (ED/KD participants; 26.3±7.3 vs. 21.2±11.1 years, respectively). KD/KD participants were more frequently non-ambulatory compared to ED/KD participants at the time of survey (80% vs. 50%). Data were verified using medical records available from 17 outpatient participants. CONCLUSIONS: Homozygous KD/KD participants exhibited a more severe phenotype compared to heterozygous ED/KD participants.

    Dysferlin-deficient SJL mice are commonly used to study dysferlinopathy. We demonstrated that poloxamer 188 (P188), a membrane sealant, is effective in reducing the loss of muscle mass in SJL mice when administered using an osmotic pump for 6 weeks. We did not observe significant changes over a 2-week administration period, suggesting that longthier observation is necessary to determine the effectiveness of P188. We also examined exercise endurance in P188-administered SJL mice using a rolling cage. Phosphorylated p38 was found to be reduced in P188-administered SJL mice; additionally, using microarray analysis, we found diminished expression of atrogin-1, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, as the effector of muscular atrophy. Chronic infusion of P188 to dysferlin-deficient SJL mice reduced muscular atrophy, and administering p38 and atrogin-1 in the gastrocnemius muscle improved its motor function. These results provide a basis for potential treatments for dysferlin-deficient skeletal muscle fibers.

    We report a 28-year-old male with dysferlinopathy, who has remained asymptomatic for 10 years from a rhabdomyolysis-like episode. He had been in good health since birth, but felt difficulty in walking after a month and a half of manual labor at 18 years old (at the year 2000). Rhabdomyolysis was suspected because of muscle weakness and elevated serum CK of 28,094U/L. He was hospitalized and his muscle weakness improved. He was referred to us, because his serum CK remained around 2,000U/L. Histological analysis of muscle, when anti-dysferlin antibody was unavailable, was not informative but later analysis at the age of 23 using preserved specimen showed loss of dysferlin immunoreactivity. Subsequently, a missense mutation (c.2997G>T) and a deletion (c.3373delG) of the dysferlin gene, both of which are common in Miyoshi myopathy in Japanese, were identified. He continuously showed hyper-CKemia, but no apparent muscle weakness emerged for more than ten years. Reports on asymptomatic dysferlinopathy over such a long duration are rare. This case may suggest that genetic factors, environmental factors such as intensity of work-load, or both, might affect the clinical course of dysferlinopathy. Further follow-up is necessary.

    BACKGROUND: Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) acts mainly via the CRH receptor 1 (CRH-R1) and plays a crucial role in the stress-induced pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Several studies have demonstrated that variants of the CRH-R1 gene carry a potential risk for depression, but evidence for an association between CRH-R1 genotypes and IBS is lacking. We tested the hypothesis that genetic polymorphisms and haplotypes of CRH-R1 moderate the IBS phenotype and negative emotion in IBS patients. METHODS: A total of 103 patients with IBS and 142 healthy controls participated in the study. Three single-nucleotide polymorphisms of the CRH-R1 gene (rs7209436, rs242924, and rs110402) were genotyped. Subjects' emotional states were evaluated using the Perceived-Stress Scale, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and the Self-rating Depression Scale. RESULTS: The TT genotype of rs7209436 (P = 0.01) and rs242924 (P = 0.02) was significantly more common in patients with IBS than in controls. Total sample analysis showed significant association between bowel pattern (normal, diarrhea, constipation, or mixed symptoms) and the T allele of rs7209436 (P = 0.008), T allele of rs242924 (P = 0.019), A allele of rs110402 (P = 0.047), and TAT haplocopies (P = 0.048). Negative emotion was not associated with the examined CRH-R1 SNPs. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that genetic polymorphisms and the CRH-R1 haplotypes moderate IBS and related bowel patterns. There was no clear association between CRH-R1 genotypes and negative emotion accompanying IBS. Further studies on the CRH system are therefore warranted.

    Sporadic inclusion body myositis (sIBM) is an intractable and progressive skeletal muscle disease of unknown cause and without effective treatment. The etiology of sIBM is still unknown, however genetic factors, aging, life styles, environmental factors may be involved. sIBM is generally refractory to current therapy, such as steroid or immunosuppressants. To elucidate the pathomechanism of sIBM is the most important way to make therapeutic approach. In this review we estimated the prevalence of sIBM in Japan and discuss the pathomechanism of sIBM.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult onset neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the death of upper and lower motor neurons. Approximately 20% of familial ALS cases are caused by mutations in the superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene. We have developed rats that express a human SOD1 transgene with two different ALS-associated mutations develop striking motor neuron degeneration and paralysis. The larger size of this rat model as compared with the ALS mice will facilitate studies involving manipulations of spinal fluid (implantation of intrathecal catheters for chronic therapeutic studies; CSF sampling) and spinal cord (e.g., direct administration of viral- and cell-mediated therapies). Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is one of the most potent survival-promoting factors for motor neurons. To examine both its protective effect on motor neurons and its therapeutic potential, we administered human recombinant HGF (hrHGF) by continuous intrathecal delivery to the transgenic rats at the onset of paralysis for 4 weeks. Intrathecal administration of hrHGF attenuates motor neuron degeneration and prolonged the duration of the disease by 63%. Our results indicated the therapeutic efficacy of continuous intrathecal administration of hrHGF in ALS rats. These results should prompt further clinical trials in ALS using continuous intrathecal administration of hrHGF.

    We evaluated a battery of functional tests for investigating the effects of edaravone, a free radical scavenger, in SOD1 transgenic (H46R) rat model of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Edaravone (1.5 or 3.0mg/kg/h) or saline was administered intravenously to rats by continuous infusion (1h per day) for 2days, followed by a 2-day holiday. Lifetime and duration of illness were evaluated, and motor function was assessed using the hind-foot reflex test, landing foot-splay test, rota rod test and inclined plate test at a predetermined time point at which half of the control animals had died. Statistical comparison of motor functions of edaravone-treated and control SOD1 transgenic rats at an objectively determined time point was confirmed to be feasible. Edaravone-treated male rats showed significantly better performance in the landing foot-splay test. The present model seems suitable for evaluating motor function of H46R SOD1 transgenic rats, and be useful for examining the therapeutic potential of edaravone to treat amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

    We report an adult case of late-onset riboflavin-responsive multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency (MADD) characterized by episodic recurrent rhabdomyolysis and acute renal failure after the age of 46. Muscle biopsy revealed lipid storage myopathy and the finding of serum acylcarnitine and urine organic acid analyses were consistent with MADD. A compound heterozygous mutation was identified in the electron-transferring-flavoprotein dehydrogenase (ETFDH) gene, including a novel missense mutation, which confirmed the diagnosis of MADD. After administration of riboflavin and L-carnitine, the muscle weakness and fatigability gradually improved. Acylcarnitine and urine organic acid were also normalized after supplementation. Thus, MADD should be included in one of the differential diagnoses for adult recurrent rhabdomyolysis. Gene analysis is useful to confirm the diagnosis, and early diagnosis is important because riboflavin treatment has been effective in a significant number of patients with MADD.

    Previously, we demonstrated that neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) is activated and promotes muscle atrophy in skeletal muscle during tail suspension, a model of unloading and denervation. Here, we examined patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and mutant (H46R) SOD1 transgenic (Tg) mice model using immunohistochemistry, Western blotting and real time PCR. We found cytoplasmic nNOS staining of angulated muscle fibers in patients with ALS. We also examined mutant SOD1 Tg mice and found cytoplasmic nNOS staining even before the onset of clinical muscle atrophy. In the Tg mice, nNOS was largely extracted with 100 mM NaCl and barely detected in the pellet fraction, suggesting fragile anchoring of nNOS to the sarcolemma. We also showed an elevated expression of atrogin-1, key molecules in muscle atrophy at the end stage. A common nNOS dislocation/atrogin-1/muscle atrophy pathway among tail suspension, denervation and ALS is suggested. nNOS modulation therapy may be beneficial in several types of muscle atrophy.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has its onset in middle age and is a progressive disorder characterized by degeneration of motor neurons of the primary motor cortex, brainstem and spinal cord. Most cases of ALS are sporadic, but about 10% are familial. Genes known to cause classic familial ALS (FALS) are superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1), ANG encoding angiogenin, TARDP encoding transactive response (TAR) DNA-binding protein TDP-43 (ref. 4) and fused in sarcoma/translated in liposarcoma (FUS, also known as TLS). However, these genetic defects occur in only about 20-30% of cases of FALS, and most genes causing FALS are unknown. Here we show that there are mutations in the gene encoding optineurin (OPTN), earlier reported to be a causative gene of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), in patients with ALS. We found three types of mutation of OPTN: a homozygous deletion of exon 5, a homozygous Q398X nonsense mutation and a heterozygous E478G missense mutation within its ubiquitin-binding domain. Analysis of cell transfection showed that the nonsense and missense mutations of OPTN abolished the inhibition of activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB), and the E478G mutation revealed a cytoplasmic distribution different from that of the wild type or a POAG mutation. A case with the E478G mutation showed OPTN-immunoreactive cytoplasmic inclusions. Furthermore, TDP-43- or SOD1-positive inclusions of sporadic and SOD1 cases of ALS were also noticeably immunolabelled by anti-OPTN antibodies. Our findings strongly suggest that OPTN is involved in the pathogenesis of ALS. They also indicate that NF-kappaB inhibitors could be used to treat ALS and that transgenic mice bearing various mutations of OPTN will be relevant in developing new drugs for this disorder.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has its onset in middle age and is a progressive disorder characterized by degeneration of motor neurons of the primary motor cortex, brainstem and spinal cord. Most cases of ALS are sporadic, but about 10% are familial. Genes known to cause classic familial ALS (FALS) are superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1), ANG encoding angiogenin, TARDP encoding transactive response (TAR) DNA-binding protein TDP-43 (ref. 4) and fused in sarcoma/translated in liposarcoma (FUS, also known as TLS). However, these genetic defects occur in only about 20-30% of cases of FALS, and most genes causing FALS are unknown. Here we show that there are mutations in the gene encoding optineurin (OPTN), earlier reported to be a causative gene of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), in patients with ALS. We found three types of mutation of OPTN: a homozygous deletion of exon 5, a homozygous Q398X nonsense mutation and a heterozygous E478G missense mutation within its ubiquitin-binding domain. Analysis of cell transfection showed that the nonsense and missense mutations of OPTN abolished the inhibition of activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB), and the E478G mutation revealed a cytoplasmic distribution different from that of the wild type or a POAG mutation. A case with the E478G mutation showed OPTN-immunoreactive cytoplasmic inclusions. Furthermore, TDP-43- or SOD1-positive inclusions of sporadic and SOD1 cases of ALS were also noticeably immunolabelled by anti-OPTN antibodies. Our findings strongly suggest that OPTN is involved in the pathogenesis of ALS. They also indicate that NF-kappaB inhibitors could be used to treat ALS and that transgenic mice bearing various mutations of OPTN will be relevant in developing new drugs for this disorder.

    Mutations in the fused in sarcoma (FUS, also known as translated in liposarcoma) gene have been recently discovered to be associated with familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) in African, European and American populations. In a Japanese family with FALS, we found the R521C FUS mutation, which has been reported to be found in various ethnic backgrounds. The family history revealed 23 patients with FALS among 46 family members, suggesting a 100% penetrance rate. They developed muscle weakness at an average age of 35.3 years, followed by dysarthria, dysphagia, spasticity and muscle atrophy. The average age of death was 37.2 years. Neuropathological examination of the index case revealed remarkable atrophy of the brainstem tegmentum characterized by cytoplasmic basophilic inclusion bodies in the neurons of the brainstem. We screened 40 FALS families in Japan and found 4 mutations (S513P, K510E, R514S, H517P) in exon 14 and 15 of FUS. Even in Asian races, FALS with FUS mutations may have the common characteristics of early onset, rapid progress and high penetrance rate, although in patients with the S513P mutation it was late-onset. Degeneration in multiple systems and cytoplasmic basophilic inclusion bodies were found in the autopsied cases.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult onset neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the death of upper and lower motor neurons. Approximately 20% of familial ALS cases are caused by mutations in the superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene. Mutations in the fused in sarcoma/translated in liposarcoma (FUS/TLS) gene have been recently discovered to be associated with familial ALS. We found FUS/TLS mutations in familial ALS cases in Japan. Even in Asian races, ALS with FUS/TLS mutations may have common characteristics of early onset, rapid progress, high penerence trait. We developed rats that express a human SOD1 transgene with two different ALS-associated mutations (G93A and H46R) develop striking motor neuron degeneration and paralysis. The larger size of this rat model as compared with the ALS mice will facilitate studies involving manipulations of spinal fluid (implantation of intrathecal catheters for chronic therapeutic studies; CSF sampling) and spinal cord (e.g., direct administration of viral- and cell-mediated therapies). Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is one of the most potent survival-promoting factors for motor neurons. To examine its both protective effect on motor neurons and therapeutic potential, we administered human recombinant HGF (hrHGF) by continuous intrathecal delivery to G93A transgenic rats at onset of paralysis for 4 weeks. Intrathecal administration of hrHGF attenuates motor neuron degeneration and prolonged the duration of the disease by 63%. Our results indicated the therapeutic efficacy of continuous intrathecal administration of hrHGF in ALS rats. In addition, HGF is capable of reducing astrocytosis and microglial accumulation, and thus supports the attention of a glial-dependent mechanism of ALS progression. These results should prompt further clinical trials in ALS using continuous intrathecal administration of hrHGF.

    The present case was an elderly man with a history of gastric cancer, diffuse biliary duct stenosis and liver cirrhosis. He had markedly elevated IgG, suggesting chronic infection or inflammatory changes in the biliary duct. He developed weakness in his arms and became unable to use his hands within one month and 2 weeks later, he had difficulty walking. Based on his progressive disease course, elevated serum IgG, nerve conduction study and enhanced MRI findings, we diagnosed him as suffering from immune-mediated subacute polyradiculoneuropathy with polyclonal gammopathy, which might be related to Guillain-Barré syndrome. Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) was dramatically effective in this patient. In the follow-up 6 months later he was stable and could walk without a cane. Even in patients with polyclonal gammopathy in chronic inflammatory disease of another organ, IVIg may be effective and beneficial for the patients's quality of life.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by selective motor neuron death. We developed a rat model of ALS expressing a human cytosolic copper-zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1) transgene with two ALS-associated mutations: glycine to alanine at position 93 (G93A) and histidine to arginine at position 46 (H46R). Although the mechanism of ALS is still unclear, there are many hypotheses concerning its cause, including loss of neurotrophic support to motor neurons. Recent evidence suggests that insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) act as neurotrophic factors, and promote the survival and differentiation of neuronal cells including motor neurons. Their ability to enhance the outgrowth of spinal motor neurons suggests their potential as a therapeutic agent for the patients with ALS. In this study, we investigated IGF-II receptor immunoreactivity in the anterior horns of the lumbar level of the spinal cord in SOD1 transgenic rats with the H46R mutation of different ages as well as in normal littermates. The double-immunostaining for IGF-II receptor and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) demonstrated co-localization on reactive astrocytes ((**)p < 0.001) in the end-stage transgenic rats, whereas it was not evident at the pre-symptomatic stage or at the onset of the disease. Our results demonstrated the IGF-II receptor up-regulation in reactive astrocytes in the spinal cord of transgenic rats, which may reflect a protective response against the loss of IGF-related trophic factors. We suggest that IGF receptors may play a key role in the pathogenesis, and may have therapeutic implications in ALS.

    Noonan syndrome (NS) and cardio-facio-cutaneous (CFC) syndrome are autosomal dominant disorders characterized by heart defects, facial dysmorphism, ectodermal abnormalities, and mental retardation. There is a significant clinical overlap between NS and CFC syndrome, but ectodermal abnormalities and mental retardation are more frequent in CFC syndrome. Mutations in PTPN11 and KRAS have been identified in patients with NS and those in KRAS, BRAF and MAP2K1/2 have been identified in patients with CFC syndrome, establishing a new role of the RAS/MAPK pathway in human development. Recently, mutations in the son of sevenless gene (SOS1) have also been identified in patients with NS. To clarify the clinical spectrum of patients with SOS1 mutations, we analyzed 24 patients with NS, including 3 patients in a three-generation family, and 30 patients with CFC syndrome without PTPN11, KRAS, HRAS, BRAF, and MAP2K1/2 (MEK1/2) mutations. We identified two SOS1 mutations in four NS patients, including three patients in the above-mentioned three-generation family. In the patients with a CFC phenotype, three mutations, including a novel three amino-acid insertion, were identified in one CFC patient and two patients with both NS and CFC phenotypes. These three patients exhibited ectodermal abnormalities, such as curly hair, sparse eyebrows, and dry skin, and two of them showed mental retardation. Our results suggest that patients with SOS1 mutations range from NS to CFC syndrome.

    We report a 43-year-old woman with familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) who died of massive bleeding from a tracheoarterial fistula. Four years after the onset of the disease, she received invasive ventilation by tracheostomy because of respiratory failure. Four years and 7 months later, she showed an abrupt hemorrhage from the tracheostomy and died. The postmortem examination revealed a fistulous tract between the tracheal mucosal ulcer and the brachiocephalic trunk. The ulcer was in close proximity to the tracheostomy tube. In order to avoid such unexpected complications, we should observe the contact site between the tracheal mucosa and the tracheal tube in chronic tracheostomy patients.

    Dysferlinopathies exhibit marked heterogeneity in the initial distribution of muscle involvement at the onset of the disease. We describe a Japanese patient with dysferlinopathy who exhibited distal anterior compartment myopathy (DACM) with early contractures of the ankle, whose pedigree included patients with two other types of dysferlinopathy. The existence of three phenotypes of dysferlinopathy in one pedigree is reported, indicating the involvement of molecules other than dysferlin in the pathogenesis.

    Forkhead box O (Foxo) transcription factors induce muscle atrophy by upregulating the muscle-specific E3 ubiquitin ligases MuRF-1 and atrogin-1/MAFbx, but other than Akt, the upstream regulators of Foxos during muscle atrophy are largely unknown. To examine the involvement of the dystrophin glycoprotein complex (DGC) in regulation of Foxo activities and muscle atrophy, we analyzed the expression of DGC members during tail suspension, a model of unloading-induced muscle atrophy. Among several DGC members, only neuronal NOS (nNOS) quickly dislocated from the sarcolemma to the cytoplasm during tail suspension. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectrometry revealed production of NO in atrophying muscle. nNOS-null mice showed much milder muscle atrophy after tail suspension than did wild-type mice. Importantly, nuclear accumulation of dephosphorylated Foxo3a was not evident in nNOS-null muscle, and neither MuRF-1 nor atrogin-1/MAFbx were upregulated during tail suspension. Furthermore, an nNOS-specific inhibitor, 7-nitroindazole, significantly prevented suspension-induced muscle atrophy. The NF-kappaB pathway was activated in both wild-type and nNOS-null muscle during tail suspension. We also show that nNOS was involved in the mechanism of denervation-induced atrophy. We conclude that nNOS/NO mediates muscle atrophy via regulation of Foxo transcription factors and is a new therapeutic target for disuse-induced muscle atrophy.

    We report two brothers from a Japanese family with a late-onset distal myopathy characterized by rimmed vacuoles and dysferlin deficiency with no inflammatory infiltration and dystrophic changes in muscle biopsy. Mutations in the GNE, dysferlin, caveolin 3, emerin, and lamin A/C genes were excluded. We speculate that dysferlin is involved in the pathogenesis of the myopathy in these patients, which may represent a new disease entity presenting as a distal myopathy.

We examined patients with dysferlinopathy in Japan, and identified 28 and 12 different mutations respectively in MM and LGMD2B patients. The mean age at onset of the patients with MM was 22 +/- 9 years (range 12-48 years) and that of the patients with LGMD2B was 26 +/- 10 years (range 11-43 years). On the average, the first use of a cane was at 33 years (14 years after the onset) for MM and 39 years (15 years after onset) for LGMD 2B. Patients became wheelchair-bound at 41 years (21 years after onset) in MM and 45 years (21 years after onset) for LGMD2B. The mean maximum serum CK level at any age of the patients was 5,829 +/- 4,273 IU/l (range 1,289-12,566 IU/l ) for MM and 3,787 +/- 2,493 IU/l (627-10,000 IU/l) for LGMD2B: in both disorders, the serum CK level fell in proportion to the duration of the illness. We have identified four common four mutations (C1939G, G3370T, 3746delG, and 4870delT) in Japanese patients with MM, accounting for 48 percent of all MM mutations in this population. Two of the four mutations (G3370T, and 4870delT) accounted for 52 percent of the mutations in LGMD2B patients, while the 3746delG mutation was not found in patients with LGMD2B. The G3370T mutation may be associated with a milder form of MM and LGMD2B. By contrast, the G3510A mutation appears to be associated with a severe form of MM.

    The SJL mouse is a model for human dysferlinopathy (limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B and Miyoshi myopathy). We used cDNA microarrays to compare the expression profiles of 10,012 genes in control and SJL quadriceps femoris muscles in order to find genes involved in the degeneration and regeneration process and in dysferlin's functional network. Many genes involved in the process of muscle regeneration are observed to be up-regulated in SJL mice, including cardiac ankyrin repeated protein (CARP), Neuraminidase 2, interleukin-6, insulin-like growth factor-2 and osteopontin. We found the upregulation of S100 calcium binding proteins, neural precursor cell expressed, developmentally down-regulated gene 4-like (NEDD4L) with C2 domain, and intracellular protein traffic associated proteins (Rab6 and Rab2). These proteins have the potential to interact with dysferlin. We must reveal some other molecules which may work with dysferlin in order to clarify the pathological network of dysferlinopathy. This process may lead to future improvements in the therapy for human dysferlinopathy.

    We report a 40-year-old man who noticed difficulty in standing on his tiptoe from approximately 36 years-old. He presented with selective calf muscle weakness on flexion. The serum creatine kinase (CK) level slightly increased to 569IU/l. Muscle computed tomography (CT) revealed selective gastrocnemius and soleus muscle atrophy with fat tissue replacement. A biopsy of the left gastrocnemius muscle revealed a marked variation in muscle fiber size and some necrotic and regenerating fibers. Immunohistochemical analysis using an anti-dysferlin antibody showed a faint and irregular immunostaining of the muscle surface membrane and abnormal immunoreactive depositions in the cytoplasm, although normal dysferlin content was detected by Western blotting. The sequence analysis of all exons of the dysferlin gene revealed no responsible mutations. The case had clinical and pathological findings similar to those of Miyoshi myopathy. The present study indicates that there may be a secondary abonormality of dysferlin derived from some other factors in patients with clinical and pathological findings similar to those of Miyoshi myopathy. The mechanism of dysferlin expression should be elucidated to obtain a conclusive pathogenetic mechanism underlying this disorder.

  767. Dysferlinopathy

    CLINICAL CHARACTERISTICS: Dysferlinopathy includes a spectrum of muscle disease characterized by two major phenotypes: Miyoshi muscular dystrophy (MMD) and limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B); and two minor phenotypes: asymptomatic hyperCKemia and distal myopathy with anterior tibial onset (DMAT). MMD (median age of onset 19 years) is characterized by muscle weakness and atrophy, most marked in the distal parts of the legs, especially the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles. Over a period of years, the weakness and atrophy spread to the thighs and gluteal muscles. The forearms may become mildly atrophic with decrease in grip strength; the small muscles of the hands are spared. LGMD2B is characterized by early weakness and atrophy of the pelvic and shoulder girdle muscles in adolescence or young adulthood, with slow progression. Other phenotypes in this spectrum are scapuloperoneal syndrome and congenital muscular dystrophy. Asymptomatic hyperCKemia is characterized by marked elevation of serum CK concentration only. DMAT is characterized by early and predominant distal muscle weakness, particularly of the muscles of the anterior compartment of the legs. DIAGNOSIS/TESTING: The diagnosis of dysferlinopathy is established in a proband with suggestive findings and biallelic pathogenic variants in DYSF identified by molecular genetic testing. MANAGEMENT: Treatment of manifestations: There is no approved therapy for dysferlinopathy. Treatment is symptomatic only. Management should be tailored to the individual and the specific subtype. Individualized management may include physical therapy, use of mechanical aids, surgical intervention for orthopedic complications, respiratory aids, and social and emotional support. Surveillance: Annual monitoring of muscle strength, physical function, activities of daily living, joint range of motion, balance, and respiratory function, and for evidence of cardiomyopathy for individuals with cardiac involvement. Agents/circumstances to avoid: Weight control to avoid obesity. GENETIC COUNSELING: Dysferlinopathy is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. If both parents are known to be heterozygous for a DYSF pathogenic variant, each sib of an affected individual has at conception a 25% chance of being affected, a 50% chance of being an asymptomatic carrier, and a 25% chance of being unaffected and not a carrier. Once the DYSF pathogenic variants have been identified in an affected family member, carrier testing for at-risk relatives, prenatal testing for a pregnancy at increased risk, and preimplantation genetic testing are possible.

    筋萎縮性側索硬化症(ALS)の約10%を占める家族性ALSの解析を通じて20以上の病因遺伝子が明らかになっている。本総説では日本人の家族性ALSで頻度の高い病因遺伝子を中心にその臨床的な特徴をまとめる。近年明らかになった家族性ALS病因遺伝子の機能異常は蛋白恒常性維持機構の破綻,RNA代謝異常,軸索病態・細胞骨格異常といった分子病態に収斂してきており,家族性ALSの病態解明とそれを基盤にした治療開発の現状にも触れる。

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is an adult onset neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the death of upper and lower motor neurons. In familial ALS kinders with mutations in the SOD1 gene, the age of onset of weakness varies greatly but the duration of illness appears to be characteristic to each mutation. Mutations in the fused in sarcoma/translated in liposarcoma (FUS/TLS) gene have been discovered to be associated with familial ALS. In a Japanese family with familial ALS, we found the R521C FUS mutation, which has been reported to be found in various ethnic backgrounds. The family history revealed 23 patients with ALS among 46 family members, suggesting a 100% penetrance rate. They developed muscle weakness at an average age of 35.3 years, and the average age of death was 37.2 years. Neuropathological examination revealed remarkable atrophy of the brainstem tegmentum characterized by cytoplasmic basophilic inclusion bodies in the neurons of the brainstem. The frequency of a hexanucleotide repeat expansion in C9ORF72 with familial ALS has been estimated as approximately 5% in Japan, although the one Japanese patient was identified as a carrier of the C9ORF72 expansion carried the Finnish risk haplotype.

    Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease characterized by selective loss of motor neurons. Approximately 20% of familial ALS cases are linked to mutations in Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) gene. Previously, we developed a transgenic rat model of ALS overexpressing mutant SOD1 protein. The rat model facilitates preclinical ALS research employing various therapeutic approaches such as intrathecal administration, cell transplantation, and viral vector-mediated gene transduction to the affected central nervous system. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a pleiotropic growth factor and also a potent survival-promoting factor for motor neurons. To examine its therapeutic effect on ALS, we administered human recombinant HGF (hrHGF) to the transgenic ALS rats. In contrast with vehicle-treated rats, continuous intrathecal infusion of hrHGF attenuated spinal motor neuron degeneration and prolonged the duration of the disease, even with administration from the onset of symptoms. To translate the strategy to human treatment, we performed dose-finding and safety studies using non-human primate model of contusive cervical spinal cord injury. Introducing exogenous HGF protein also revealed a distinct therapeutic effect with functional recovery. Given the therapeutic potential of hrHGF on ALS, we started a novel phase I clinical trial for ALS patients in Tohoku University Hospital.

    封入体筋炎 (sIBM)は中高年の慢性進行性の難治性筋疾患であり社会の高齢化に伴い増加している。骨格筋の細胞質に封入体が形成されRNA結合蛋白であるTDP-43が異常蓄積し最終的に筋変性に繋がる。我々はsIBM患者由来筋芽細胞を樹立し、独自に開発したヒト骨格筋電気収縮培養系を活用しメカニカルストレス負荷後の筋管細胞モデルにおけるTDP-43の細胞質内局在異常を再確認した。その分子病態としてはsIBMの骨格筋細胞ではRNA代謝制御を担うTDP-43の局在異常が生じることによりスプライシング制御が不能となり、通常は発現することのないcryptic exonが出現し、蛋白分解系が破綻、封入体が形成されると考えた。この仮説を検証するためメカニカルストレス負荷後のsIBM患者由来筋管細胞での機能喪失につながるcryptic exon発現をRNAシーケンス・スプライシング解析で評価することとした。電気収縮培養後の解析では9つの有意に発現が変化している遺伝子を見出すことができた。今後、機能解析を行い、cryptic exonが出現する生物学的な意味を検討していく。また、sIBMの筋芽細胞を特徴づける遺伝子発現などについては十分に明らかにできていなかったため、RNAシークエンスによる発現解析を行った。ヒトsIBMの骨格筋で見られる封入体にも検出されるApoEなどの転写産物の発現量がsIBM由来の筋芽細胞・筋管で上昇していることが明らかとなり、cell autonomousな機序が働いていることが想定された。蛋白レベルでも発現上昇を確認しており、論文投稿中である。

    筋萎縮性側索硬化症(ALS)は運動ニューロンが系統的に障害され根本的な治療が未だ無い難病である。ALSの多くを占める孤発性ALSの剖検脳・脊髄ではTDP-43の封入体が見られる。TDP-43をコードするTARDBPはFUSやhnRNPA1と共に家族性ALSの原因遺伝子であり、またRNA結合蛋白でもある。RNA代謝異常は、軸索障害とともに家族性・孤発性ALSに共通して見られる病態機序である。独自開発したマイクロ流体デバイスを用いiPS細胞由来運動ニューロン軸索を大量に回収・網羅的解析し、FUS、hnRNPA1、TDP-43といった代表的なRNA結合蛋白変異における病態を比較解析してきた。 本年度はRNA-seq解析により、TARDBP変異による軸索局所でのRNA代謝異常を転写レベルで解析した。PHOX2Bを見出し、その発現抑制で健常者運動ニューロンの突起伸長抑制が再現された。動物モデルとして、ゼブラフィッシュでも、モルフォリノによるPHOX2Bの発現抑制実験で、細胞モデルと同様に脊髄軸索長が低下し、さらに運動機能も低下した。PHOX2Bは、ALSで発症後長期まで保たれる動眼神経や自律神経において発現が高いことから、変異運動ニューロンの選択的変性に関わる可能性が考えられる。上記の新しい知見をStem Cell Reports誌に報告した(Mitsuzawa S, et al. Stem Cell Reports 2021)。各遺伝子変異の共通分子の解析や動物モデルを用いた検証を行っていく。

    社会の高齢化に伴い患者数が増加している封入体筋炎 (sIBM) は中高年にみられる慢性進行性の難治性筋疾患である。sIBMの病態解明・治療開発は要介護者が増加しているわが国への貢献が大きい。高齢化に伴い増加しているサルコペニア、廃用性筋萎縮さらにはより若年発症のdysferlin異常症など筋ジストロフィーの筋萎縮病態への治療開発にも寄与しうると考えている。sIBM患者の骨格筋ではアミロイドbetaやTDP-43・FUSなどの異常凝集体が見られ筋における変性疾患と考えられる。我々は長年にわたりsIBM患者由来筋芽細胞を樹立・蓄積し、ヒト生検筋データと比較解析することで、異常凝集蛋白としてのアポリポ蛋白に注目した。sIBMでは加齢に伴い産生と排泄のバランスが崩れるという仮説のもと、特に凝集体形成蛋白の細胞・組織からのクリアランス系に着目する。独自に開発したヒト骨格筋電気収縮培養系を活用しApoEの発現上昇を確認した。さらにsIBM患者骨格筋においてApoEの免疫染色での沈着が細胞外にもおよんでいることを見出した。研究協力者・神崎らが開発した長年の筋収縮刺激の持続を再現するために培養容器に電位をかけて強制的・持続的に筋収縮を起こし培養筋線維の成熟を促すことができる電気収縮培養系を用いて細胞ストレスを負荷し内在性のApoE蛋白の細胞内凝集体形成を評価する。前段階として予備実験を行い、凝集蛋白の一つであるTDP-43の細胞質沈着を見出した。

    筋萎縮性側索硬化症(ALS)は運動ニューロンが障害され呼吸筋障害が致死的となる神経難病である。共同研究により開発した広流路マイクロ流体デバイスを用いたヒトiPS細胞由来運動ニューロンの軸索束(神経オルガノイド)作成により軸索のみの高収量回収が可能となり、ALSの軸索特異的・運動ニューロン選択的な細胞障害の機序が明らかにできる。ALSの運動ニューロン脆弱性の分子機構を明らかにすることが目的である。 今年度はEBioMedicine誌に神経オルガノイド培養の軸索部分から抽出したRNAシークエンス解析により見出したFUS変異病態に関連する遺伝子Fos-Bについて報告することができた。FUS変異iPS細胞由来運動ニューロンでは軸索分岐が増加するが、そのような形態異常がFos-Bのノックダウンで改善することを確認した。さらにゼブラフィッシュモデルやヒト剖検脊髄を用いて、Fos-BとALS病態との関連性について明らかにした。神経オルガノイド培養を用いた軸索病態の解析はALSの病態研究アプローチとして有用であることを明らかにした。 さらにこの論文をベースとして、軸索のオミックス解析に関する総説を書き、Frontiers in Neuroscience誌に掲載された。運動ニューロンを含む神経軸索が培養および生体内でどのような制御を受けているかを論じ、ALS病態解析となる知見を俯瞰した。軸索の耐久性(レジリエンス)の基盤となる恒常性維持機構について、FUSやTARDBP変異などALS病態同士を比較しながら今後も検討を重ねていく。

    脳腸相関とは、中枢神経系と消化管の機能的関連を言う。これは発生学的に古い現象であるが、不明な点が多い。脳腸相関には大きく分けて2つの現象・経路がある。一つはストレスにより、中枢神経系興奮が自律神経内分泌系を介して消化管機能を変容させる現象・経路である。もう一つは、消化管からの信号が求心路から中枢神経系に伝達され、中枢神経機能を変容させる現象・経路である。われわれは、ストレスにより、あるいは、消化管刺激により、脳の特定部位でcorticotropin-releasing hormone(CRH)を中心とする神経伝達物質が放出され、局所脳活動を賦活化する、そして、過敏性腸症候群においてはこの現象が増強されている、と仮説づけた。本研究は、この仮説を動物実験とヒトに対する脳腸検査によって検証することを主目的とし、positron emission tomography(PET)と脳波power spectra、topographyをはじめとする脳機能画像と併せ、脳腸相関におけるCRHならびにその他の物質の役割を明確にした。平成15-18年度の科学研究費により、過敏性腸症候群の動物モデルを作成することができた。この動物モデルの病態はCRH拮抗薬により改善した。また、消化管への物理ストレスにより内臓痛が生じ、視床と辺縁系で脳血流量が増加した。同時に、脳波power spectra、topogramが変化し、腹痛とともに不安が生じた。この時、消化管運動も変化した。過敏性腸症候群ではこれらの現象が顕著であるが、これらもCRH拮抗薬により改善した。過敏性腸症候群あるいはその病態を示す動物では、辺縁系におけるCRH遊離がこれらの結果を招くことが示唆された。これらの知見を平成15-18年度に得たことにより、脳腸相関におけるCRH系の関与を明らかにするという研究目的を達成することができた。

    過敏性腸症候群は、患者のQuality of Lifeの著しい低下を招き、21世紀に重視されることが確実視される重要な消化器病である。過敏性腸症候群の罹患数は多く、欧米では全人口の8-15%を占め、国の医療費に対する負担も巨額となる。過敏性腸症候群の病態においてはストレス感受性と抑うつ、不安を代表とする心理的異常が深く関与する。しかし、わが国における実態は不明である。ここから、過敏性腸症候群の病態形成における遺伝と環境の相互作用をクロスカルチャー分析することにより、本疾患の発症機序に迫ることができると仮説づけた。本年度の目的は欧米の調査法と調和させたわが国における過敏性腸症候群の実態を調査することである。対象は一般ボランティア304例である。消化器症状をRome II Modular Questionnaire (RIIMQ)で、ストレス感受性をPerceived Stress Scale Scale (PSS)、Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS)、State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)、Tronto Alexithymia Scale 20-items (TAS-20)で分析した。上肢より静脈採血し、末梢血からDNAを抽出し、PCRで増幅し、電気泳動によりセロトニントランスポーター遺伝子多型(5-HTTLPR)分析を実行した。5-HTTLPRの頻度はs/s型61.4%、s/l型30.2%、l/l型5.9%であり、明らかに白人の5-HTTLPRよりもsアリルを持つ者の割合が高かった。非定型なs/extra-l型0.9%、l/extra-l型1.5%も認めた。非定型を除外した296例では、RIIMQの34.5%が過敏性腸症候と判定された。5-HTTLPRと過敏性腸症候群には関連性はなかった。しかし、l/l型において腹部膨満感が有意に強く(p<0.05)、TAS-20の総得点が有意に高かった(p=0.004)。これらがsアリルを持つ者の割合が高いわが国における過敏性腸症候群の遺伝的背景の特徴である可能性がある。過敏性腸症候群の病態形成における遺伝と環境の相互作用をクロスカルチャー分析する研究はきわめて将来性が高く、今後の検討が期待できる。

    筋萎縮性側索硬化症(Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis以下ALS)は神経疾患のなかで最も過酷な疾患とされており、早期に病因の解明と有効な治療法の確立が求められている。本研究ではALSの新しい動物モデルとして確立したヒト変異Cu/Zn SOD遺伝子導入ラット(以下Tgラット)を用いて、再生医療の開発を念頭に内在性神経前駆細胞の解析を開始した。これまでにTgラットにブロモデオキシウリジン(BrdU)を投与して脊髄の増殖性細胞を標識、病態下における脊髄神経前駆細胞の増殖と分化を検討したところTgラットでは運動ニューロン脱落前より有意に脊髄神経前駆細胞が増殖していたが、その多くはグリア系細胞に分化していることが示された。本年度は、発症前(10,15週齢)、運動ニューロン脱落開始直後(20週齢)、発症後早期(21週齢)、および末期(24週齢)のH46R変異Tgラットと週齢一致非Tgラット(各群n=4-5)に対して、BrdUを7日間連日投与し増殖性細胞を標識、脊髄の灌流固定後凍結切片を作成して多重免疫組織化学により解析した。1)内在性未分化NPCsの増殖は運動ニューロン脱落開始直後や発症後早期には検出されず、末期に至って中心管周囲にようやく検出された。このことから運動ニューロン脱落に対する内在性NPCsの増殖には一定の閾値の存在が示唆された。一方、2)このような未分化NPCsを外来性再生誘導因子によって賦活する方法として、肝細胞増殖因子(HGF)を運動ニューロン脱落開始後(22週齢)のTgラットに2週間持続髄腔内投与した。その結果、非投与群に比べさらにBrdU陽性細胞の増加を認めた。このことからHGFには内在性NPCsを賦活増殖させる作用があると想定された。

    本研究の研究代表者である青木らにより、遠位型筋ジストロフィー(三好型)の原因遺伝子が同定され(Nature Genet,1998) dysferlin(以下ジスフェルリン)と名づけられた。その後、家族歴のない孤発例の遠位型筋ジストロフィー(三好型)および肢帯型筋ジストロフィーの患者にも高頻度にジスフェルリンの遺伝子異常がみられることも明らかになり、ジスフェルリン異常を原因とする筋ジストロフィー疾患群(いわゆるジスフェルリノパチー)という疾患概念が提唱されつつある。本研究により日本人26名の肢帯型の臨床型を呈する筋ジストロフィー患者に12種類のジスフェルリン遺伝子変異が同定され、ジスフェルリノパチーであることが確定した。その中でもG3370T変異と4870delT変異が多くみられ52%をしめたが、三好型で多く報告されている3746delG変異は一例もみられなかった。さらには同遺伝子変異が確定したLGMD2B 13人を対象(5人はG3370T変異を伴う)にその臨床型の検討を行った。平均発症年齢は25±7歳(G3370T変異では32±6歳,他の変異では21±3歳)であった。全て下肢の筋力低下で発症し、時に初期に仮性肥大を認めた。上肢は30年の経過で机上の操作レベル、下肢は25年で車椅子レベルに至った。顔面や外眼筋の障害、嚥下困難、翼状肩甲、前後側彎は認めなかった。血清CK値は経過と共に低下していく。心胸郭比は拡大するが左室駆出率は変化しなかった。%肺活量は経過と共に低下し、2例では人工呼吸を必要としている。G3370Tを持つと発症年齢は遅いが、その後の進行速度に大差はないとことが明らかになった。今後はさらに症例を増やして検討をする必要がある。

    筋萎縮性側索硬化症(Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis以下ALS)は進行性の神経変性疾患で、その予後はきわめて不良である。近年、家族性ALSにおいてCu/Zn superoxide dismutase(以下Cu/Zn SOD)遺伝子の変異が報告され、それによる運動ニューロン選択的細胞死の機序の解明が待たれている。本研究ではCu/Zn SOD遺伝子異常による運動ニューロンの選択的細胞死の機序を解明するために、研究代表者である青木が既に報告している日本人独自の点突然変異をマウスに導入し、ALSの新しいモデルマウスの作成を行った。遺伝子変異による臨床経過の違いのメカニズムを検討するために、常法により臨床的に非常に急速な経過をとるALS家系での点突然変異(L84V)と極めて緩徐な経過をとるALS家系の突然変異(H46R)を持つ2種類のトランスジェニックマウスの作成を行った。どちらの変異を導入したトランスジェニックマウスもCu/Zn SOD活性の上昇はなく、病理像として空胞変性の少ないヒトのALSに近いモデルと考えられた。脊髄前角の神経細胞脱落、グリオーシスは両変異ともに認められた。しかし神経細胞、ダリア細胞内に認められるLewy-body like inclusionがH46R変異マウスにおいて著明に認められるのに対して、L84V変異マウスではその頻度は低かった。変異の異なる2種類のトランスジェニックマウスを比較すると、Cu/Zn SOD遺伝子変異を伴う家族性ALSにおける臨床像と相似した結果であった。新しいモデルマウスの作成により、神経細胞およびダリア細胞に見られるinclusion bodyは神経細胞死に直接関与するものではない可能性および神経細胞死には小胞体ストレスが関与している可能性が示唆された。

    2世代発症以上の家族性もやもや病の発症様式の特徴としてclinical anticiaptionが認められた。故に、clinical anticiaptionの原因としてCAGリピート疾患に見られるような異常で、分子論的に説明できるか否かを検討した。 トリプレットピート疾患の可能性があるか否かをRepeat expansiondetection (RED)法にてスクリーニングし、検討した。まず、CAGリピートの伸長の有無を検討することとしたが、それに際しては、正常人でもその伸長が報告されているERDA1/Dir1およびTG18.1といったゲノム上のCAGリピートの伸長を除外する必要があった。 2世代発症以上の家族性もやもや病の7家系、及び、対照群として、弧発性モヤモヤ病患者24名を用いて、ERDA1/Dirlの伸長及びCTG18.1の伸長の有無の検討を行った。 この検討より、RED methodの使用に耐えうる(false positiveがでる可能性のない)もやもや家系は、4家系、及び、弧発性モヤモヤ病患者は24名で、これを用いてRED法を行うこととした。 その結果、家族性もやもや家系では、4家系中2家系(27名中5名)で、CAG repeatの延長を認めた。また、弧発性モヤモヤ病患者には、CAG repeatの延長を認めたものはいなかった。CAG repeatの延長を認めたものは、総て女性(20名中の5名)であり、男性(7名)では認められなかった。以上より、家族性もやもや病家系内にCAG reapeatの伸長をみとめたものの、これと、もやもや病発症との間に因果関係は認められなかった。 しかしながら、モヤモヤ家系は、特異な遺伝的背景を有している集団であることがこれら一連の検討により明らかとなった。

    本研究の研究分担者である青木らによって、遠位型筋ジストロフィー(三好型)の原因遺伝子が同定され(Nature Genet,1998) dysferlin(以下ジスフェルリン)と名づけられた。本研究ではまず、遠位型筋ジストロフィー(三好型)の原因遺伝子であるジスフェルリンの遺伝子解析をわが国の患者検体を用いて施行し、その変異を集積することにより、同遺伝子における共通な変異の有無、異常集積部位(hot spot)の有無を検討する。また、肢帯型筋ジストロフィーの患者においてもジスフェルリン遺伝子異常の頻度の検索を行うことを目的に計画された。本年度までに日本人遠位型筋ジストロフィー(三好型)34家系36例、肢帯型筋ジストロフィー患者24家系27例、高CK血症患者2例においてジスフェルリン遺伝子の解析を行い、三好型遠位型筋ジストロフィー24家系、肢帯型筋ジストロフィー13家系、高CK血症1例で遺伝子変異が確定した。外国例ではC末端の膜貫通部位の直前に変異が集積している傾向がみられたが、わが国の症例では遺伝子全体に分散して分布していた。一方、G1310+1AとC1939G変異は3家系にG3370T変異は8家系に、3746delG変異と4870delT変異は6家系に認められ、この5種類の変異は本研究で同定された変異の59%を占め、日本人に比較的頻度の高い変異と考えられた。これらの変異はいずれも正常コントロール例にはみられず、患者に特異的であった。G3370T変異は軽症型、C1939G変異およびG3510A変異は重症型と関連する可能性があると考えた。

    筋萎縮性側索硬化症(Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis以下ALS)は進行性の難治性神経疾患で、その予後はきわめて不良である。ALS発症者の5-10%は家族性であることが知られており、通常、常染色体優性遺伝形式をとる。近年、家族性ALSにおいてCu/Zn superoxide dismutase(以下Cu/Zn SOD)遺伝子の変異が報告され、それによる運動ニューロン選択的細胞死の機序の解明が待たれている。しかしながら家族性ALSの病因におけるCu/Zn SOD遺伝子異常の普遍性を論じるためには、Cu/Zn SOD遺伝子異常の見つからない家族性ALS家系の原因遺伝子の検討が必要である。本研究はCu/Zn SOD遺伝子異常の見られない家族性ALSの大家系(4世代、15名のALS患者)において、その新しい遺伝子座を検索することを目的とする。インフォームドコンセントを得てから患者およびその家族から末梢リンパ球を採取し、DNAを抽出すると共に、EBVトランスフォーム下リンパ芽球株を樹立した。患者およびその家族のDNAを利用して、最初にこれまでに遺伝子座が明らかになっている運動ニューロン疾患あるいはその類似疾患(劣性遺伝形式を含む)の遺伝子座における連鎖を検討したがいずれも連鎖は否定的であり、新たな遺伝子座に連鎖する可能性が示唆された。現在、全ゲノムにわたる検討を継続している。その一方で、上記家系をふくめた多数の家族性ALS家系の遺伝子解析を行うことにより、わが国ではじめてCu/Zn SOD遺伝子変異をホモ接合性に持つALS患者を発見した。また、孤発性ALSの患者においてグルタミン酸トランスポーターのサブタイプのうちEAAT2遺伝子に点突然変異を同定した。
