Leukodystrophy - adult onset
Gene: CST3
16 patients from 8 leukodystrophy families carrying one of four different stop-gain or frameshift dominant variants in the C-terminal (in the NMD-exclusion zone) of the CST3 gene. The suggested mechanism of disease by rendering the protein more prone to aggregation. The clinical phenotype consists of recurrent episodes of hemiplegic migraine associated with transient unilateral focal deficits and slowly progressing motor symptoms and cognitive decline in mid-old adult ages. Clinical & radiological features differ from Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy.
