Leigh syndrome is the most common pediatric presentation of mitochondrial disease. This neurodegenerative disorder is genetically heterogeneous, and to date pathogenic mutations in >75 genes have been identified, encoded by 2 genomes (mitochondrial and nuclear). More than one-third of these disease genes have been characterized in the past 5 years alone, reflecting the significant advances made...
Isolated complex I deficiency is the most frequently observed oxidative phosphorylation defect in children with mitochondrial disease, leading to a diverse range of clinical presentations, including Leigh syndrome. For most patients the genetic cause of the biochemical defect remains unknown due to incomplete understanding of the complex I assembly process. Nonetheless, a plethora of pathogenic...
A 2-year-old girl with no significant family history presented with motor developmental delay and strabismus. MRI revealed unilateral basal ganglia and brainstem lesions (figure 1). Eighteen months later, she developed acute onset right arm weakness, leading to a diagnosis of multiphasic disseminated encephalomyelitis. Treatment with steroids and mycophenolate produced no symptomatic or imaging...
Here we demonstrate association of variants in the mitochondrial asparaginyl-tRNA synthetase NARS2 with human hearing loss and Leigh syndrome. A homozygous missense mutation ([c.637G>T; p.Val213Phe]) is the underlying cause of nonsyndromic hearing loss (DFNB94) and compound heterozygous mutations ([c.969T>A; p.Tyr323*] + [c.1142A>G; p.Asn381Ser]) result in mitochondrial respiratory chain defici...
Leigh syndrome is a severe progressive neurodegenerative disorder with different clinical presentationsthat usually becomes apparent in the first year of life and rarely in late childhood and elderly years. It is causedby failure of mitochondrial respiratory chain and often results in regression of both mental and motor skills and might even lead to death. In some of the inherited neurodegenera...
Leigh syndrome is a mitochondrial disease caused by mutations in different genes, including ATP6A for which no known therapy is available. We report a case of adult-onset Leigh syndrome with response to immunotherapy. A twenty year-old woman with baseline learning difficulties was admitted with progressive behavioral changes, diplopia, headaches, bladder incontinence, and incoordination. Brain ...
Like so many complex and incurable neurological disorders, the disease first described in this journal in 1951 by (Archibald) Denis Leigh (1915–1998; figure 1) as ‘Subacute Necrotising Encephalomyelopathy’ (SNE) remained for many years a rare and intriguing enigma, of interest mainly to paediatric neurologists and neuropathologists. The more recent history of this disorder, now designated Leigh...
