BACKGROUND Multiple system atrophy (MSA) has been considered a sporadic disease, without patterns of inheritance. OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical features of 4 multiplex families with MSA, including clinical genetic aspects. DESIGN Clinical and genetic study. SETTING Four departments of neurology in Japan. Patients Eight patients in 4 families with parkinsonism, cerebellar ataxia, and ...
A 70-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for surgical treatment of mitral insufficiency. A preoperative echocardiogram revealed a prolapsed anterior mitral leaflet, membranous septal aneurysm (MSA), and unusual chordae extending from the ventricular septum to the anterior mitral leaflet (Movies I and II in the online-only Data Supplement). In surgery, the aneurysm was examined through the...
In multiple system atrophy (MSA), increased venous compliance with excessive venous pooling is assumed to be a major contributor to orthostatic hypotension (OH); however, venous compliance has never been assessed in MSA patients. We evaluated the severity and distribution of adrenergic, cardiovagal, and sudomotor failure in 11 patients with probable MSA, 14 age- and sex-matched control subjects...
PURPOSE A broad spectrum of diseases can manifest cerebellar ataxia. In this study, we investigated whether proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) may help differentiate spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) from multiple systemic atrophy- cerebellar type (MSA-C). MATERIAL AND METHODS This prospective study recruited 156 patients with ataxia, including spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) types 1, 2, 3...
BACKGROUND Both Parkinson's disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA) have associated sleep disorders related to the underlying neurodegenerative pathology. Clinically, MSA with predominant parkinsonism (MSA-P) resembles PD in the manifestation of prominent parkinsonism. Whether the amount of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep without atonia could be a potential marker for differentiating MSA-...
The recent identification of fragile X-associated tremor ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) associated with premutations in the FMR1 gene and the possibility of clinical overlap with multiple system atrophy (MSA) has raised important questions, such as whether genetic testing for FXTAS should be performed routinely in MSA and whether positive cases might affect the specificity of current MSA diagnostic cr...
BACKGROUND Vocal fold motion impairment (VFMI), especially vocal fold abductor paralysis, is frequently seen in multiple system atrophy (MSA). Since the regulation system of laryngeal function is closely related to swallowing function, swallowing function is considered to be more involved in MSA patients with VFMI than in patients that do not have VFMI. However, the relationship between dysphag...
Selenium supplement has been shown in clinical trials to reduce the risk of different cancers including lung carcinoma. Previous studies reported that the antiproliferative and pro-apoptotic activities of methylseleninic acid (MSA) in cancer cells could be mediated by inhibition of the PI3K pathway. A better understanding of the downstream cellular targets of MSA will provide information on its...
OBJECTIVE To identify genetic variants that play a role in the pathogenesis of multiple system atrophy (MSA), we undertook a genome-wide association study (GWAS). METHODS We performed a GWAS with >5 million genotyped and imputed single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 918 patients with MSA of European ancestry and 3,864 controls. MSA cases were collected from North American and European cen...
In multiple system atrophy (MSA) and pure autonomic failure (PAF), orthostatic hypotension (OH) results from deficient noradrenaline release from sympathetic nerves during standing. Post-mortem findings have indicated loss of central noradrenergic cells in both diseases. The present study sought in vivo neurochemical evidence for central noradrenergic deficiency in patients with OH due to MSA o...
