Clinical spectrum of early-onset epileptic encephalopathies associated with STXBP1 mutations

Abstract: This study shows that mutations in STXBP1 are not limited to patients with Ohtahara syndrome, but are also present in 10% (5/49) of patients with an early-onset epileptic encephalopathy that does not fit into either Ohtahara or West syndrome and rarely in typical West syndrome. STXBP1 mutational analysis should be considered in the diagnostic evaluation of this challenging group of patients.

“…Of the .50 patients with STXBP1 encephalopathy described, the majority present by 3 months of age, with Ohtahara syndrome or other early-onset epileptic encephalopathies. [22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32] Our patients had onset from 6 to 12 months, which is later than usually seen in STXBP1 encephalopathy. It is typically associated with epileptic spasms, and notably these were not observed in our patients with Dravet syndrome.…”

“…Ohtahara syndrome and early onset EE are associated with syntaxin binding protein 1 (STXBP1) mutations. 5 We screened children with MPSI for mutations in SCN1A, CDKL5, STXBP1, PCDH19 (females only), and the 3 common European mutations of POLG. Where possible, array CGH was performed to identify pathogenic copy number variations (CNV).…”

“…Developmental delay was severe for the four patients including STXBP1 in their deletion. These manifestations could be explained by STXBP1 haploinsufficiency as a large spectrum of epileptic phenotypes with developmental delay has been described from OS to West syndrome, 10 non-syndromic infantile epileptic encephalopathies and even to one patient with ID but without epilepsy. 11 STXBP1 encodes syntaxin-binding protein 1 (STXBP1), an evolutionarily conserved neuronal protein that is vital for the process of calcium ion-dependent exocytosis in neurons as well as in neuroendocrine cells.…”
