Proton MR spectroscopic imaging in Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Pelizeaus-Merzbacher disease (PMD) is a clinically and molecularly heterogeneous disorder linked to deletion, mutations, or duplication of the proteolipid protein (PLP1) gene locus at Xq22. The current study was conducted to characterize the results of proton MR spectroscopic (MRS) imaging in PMD. METHODS Three boys with PMD (one with the severe connatal form and two wi...
متن کاملProton MR spectroscopy in Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease.
Proton MR spectroscopic findings in two patients with genetically defined Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease revealed ratios of N-acetylaspartate/creatine and choline-containing compounds/creatine that were not significantly different from those found in a population of healthy subjects. These findings suggest that proton MR spectroscopy can aid in the diagnosis of Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease.
متن کاملPelizaeus-Merzbacher Disease
Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (PMD) is a rare and progressive condition affecting the central nervous system. [1] It is one of a group of gene-linked disorders known as the leukodystrophies, which are all characterised by myelin sheath abnormalities. This is due to a mutation in the gene that controls the production of a myelin protein called proteolipid protein 1 (PLP1). The exact type of PLP1 ...
متن کاملPelizaeus-Merzbacher disease.
Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (PMD) can now be defined as an X-linked recessive leukodystrophy that is caused by a mutation in the proteolipid protein (PLP) gene on chromosome Xq22. The most common mutation is gene duplication followed in frequency by missense mutations, insertions, and deletions. The clinical spectrum ranges from severe neonatal cases to relatively benign adult forms and X-link...
