Genotype-phenotype correlates of infantile-onset developmental & epileptic encephalopathy syndromes in South India: A single centre experience

Abstract: Introduction:A paucity of literature exists on genotype-phenotype correlates of 'unknown-etiology' infantile-onset developmental-epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) from India. The primary objective was to explore the yield of genetic testing in identifying potential disease causing variants in electro-clinical phenotypes of DEE Methods:An observational hospital-based study was undertaken on children with unexplained refractory seizure-onset ≤12 months age and developmental delay, whose families consented and und… Show more

“…This might be because seven children with PDE (three unrelated cases had the same variant; possible founder variation) were contributed by a single center catering to a population with a high prevalence of consanguinity. The frequencies of the other monogenic disorders, such as SCN2A, CDKL5, STXBP1, WWOX , etc., were comparable to that reported in previous cohorts 8,10,12–15 . The other common genes reported in previous cohorts, such as ARX, TSC, TUBA1A , Miller Dieker syndrome, and other structural neurometabolic disorders at initial presentation, were not observed in the current study since these were systematically excluded at the outset due to the associated characteristic neuroimaging abnormalities 8,10,12–14 .…”

“…Many genetic abnormalities were associated with the late onset of ES (beyond 1 year of age). Some genes like ALDH7A1, CDKL5, KCNQ2, KCNT1, NTRK2, STXBP1, UGP2 , and WWOX characteristically had an early infantile‐onset in the current cohort similar to that described previously, while genetic variations in NRROS and SYNGAP1 (2/3) had onset of ES beyond 1 year of life like that reported in most patients with these disorders 10,12–15,21,27 …”

“…Brain MRI often shows thin and shortened corpus callosum, hydrocephalus, cerebral atrophy, ventricular dilatation, hypomyelination [ 1 ]. Most of patients with glycine encephalopathy have an uneventful pregnancy with normal delivery ( Supplementary Table S1 ) [ [2] , [3] , [4] , [5] , [6] , [7] , [8] , [9] , [10] , [11] , [12] , [13] , [14] , [15] , [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] , [20] , [21] , [22] , [23] , [24] , [25] , [26] , [27] , [28] , [29] ]. Here, we document an 8-year-old-boy with late-onset nonketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) in whom WES revealed a novel homozygous GLDC likely pathogenic variant c.707G > A p.(Arg236Gln).…”
