Prenatal testing for late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis.

Abstract:

:Classic late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (LINCL) is a neurodegenerative disease in which autofluorescent "curvilinear" storage bodies accumulate in tissues from affected patients. Recently, the LINCL gene (CLN2) has been found to code for a pepstatin-insensitive lysosomal protease whose activity is deficient in LINCL specimens. We report the first 2 cases of successful prenatal testing for LINCL by using DNA and enzyme-based methods on amniocytes, and describe a new private mutation in one of the families analyzed. These approaches allow definitive prenatal diagnosis and represent a significant improvement over previous pathological methods.

  • Abnormal unloading reflex in a patient with infarction of the medial lemniscus.

    abstract::The unloading reflex was measured in the intrinsic muscles of the hand. By removing various fractions of the load on the muscles, we determined the size of the electromyographic response as a function of the change in the external force. This technique was applied to both hands of a patient with a pontine lesion who h...
