A clinical, genetic, and neuropathologic study in a family with 16q-linked ADCA type III

Abstract: Presented is the new kindred with autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia linked to chromosome 16q22.1 (16q-ADCA type III) associated with progressive hearing loss. By haplotype analysis, the critical interval was slightly narrowed to three megabase regions between GATA01 and D16S3095. Neuropathologic study of 16q-ADCA type III demonstrated characteristic shrinkage of Purkinje cell bodies surrounded by synaptophysin-immunoreactive amorphous material containing calbindin- and ubiquitin-positive granules.

“…Curiously, mutations found in several forms of congenital neurological disorders such as spinocerebellar ataxia type 4 (24 -26) and autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia (27)(28)(29) have been mapped to chromosome 16q22.1, a region containing NHE5. However, much remains unknown as to the molecular regulation of NHE5 and its role in brain function.…”

“…Thus, DPN in SCA6 is considered to be due to a dysfunction of vVOR cancellation. The detailed analyses of these neuropathological changes in the flocculus of SCA31 have not yet been done [1,4,16]. Future studies should consider vVOR in SCA6 and SCA31.…”

“…The pathogenesis of gaze-evoked nystagmus has been discussed in association with the lesions pathologically involved [30]. Purkinje cell degeneration is the most prominent pathological finding in both SCA6 and 16q-ADCA [30,31]. The difference in the frequency in gaze-evoked nystagmus between SCA6 and 16q-ADCA may be due to the difference of the degree and distribution of affected lesions between both diseases.…”
