Segmental Zoster Paresis Accompanied by Horner's Syndrome.,
Internal Medicine, Vol.62, No.18, 2743-2746, 2023.

(要約): We herein report a 90-year-old immunocompromised woman who developed right upper limb weakness and right ptosis with a miotic pupil 1 week after oral therapy for zoster on the right T2 dermatome. The right pupil was dilated with instillation of 1% apraclonidine, indicating Horner's syndrome. The patient was treated with intravenous acyclovir and methylprednisolone. Focal weakness related to zoster, generally known as segmental zoster paresis, improved over five months, but Horner's syndrome remained. We suggest that aggressive intravenous treatment should be considered for rare cases of zoster that occur with a combination of these two neurological conditions.

Disordered network structure and function in dystonia: pathological connectivity vs. adaptive responses.,
Cerebral Cortex, Vol.33, No.11, 6943-6958, 2023.

(要約): Primary dystonia is thought to emerge through abnormal functional relationships between basal ganglia and cerebellar motor circuits. These interactions may differ across disease subtypes and provide a novel biomarker for diagnosis and treatment. Using a network mapping algorithm based on resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI), a method that is readily implemented on conventional MRI scanners, we identified similar disease topographies in hereditary dystonia associated with the DYT1 or DYT6 mutations and in sporadic patients lacking these mutations. Both networks were characterized by contributions from the basal ganglia, cerebellum, thalamus, sensorimotor areas, as well as cortical association regions. Expression levels for the two networks were elevated in hereditary and sporadic dystonia, and in non-manifesting carriers of dystonia mutations. Nonetheless, the distribution of abnormal functional connections differed across groups, as did metrics of network organization and efficiency in key modules. Despite these differences, network expression correlated with dystonia motor ratings, significantly improving the accuracy of predictions based on thalamocortical tract integrity obtained with diffusion tensor MRI (DTI). Thus, in addition to providing unique information regarding the anatomy of abnormal brain circuits, rs-fMRI functional networks may provide a widely accessible method to help in the objective evaluation of new treatments for this disorder.

An Exploratory Trial of EPI-589 in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (EPIC-ALS): Protocol for a Multicenter, Open-Labeled, 24-Week, Single-Group Study,
JMIR Research Protocols, Vol.12, e42032, 2023.

(要約): Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder, with its currently approved drugs, including riluzole and edaravone, showing limited therapeutic effects. Therefore, safe and effective drugs are urgently necessary. EPI-589 is an orally available, small-molecule, novel redox-active agent characterized by highly potent protective effects against oxidative stress with high blood-brain barrier permeability. Given the apparent oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction involvement in the pathogenesis of ALS, EPI-589 may hold promise as a therapeutic agent. This protocol aims to describe the design and rationale for the EPI-589 Early Phase 2 Investigator-Initiated Clinical Trial for ALS (EPIC-ALS). EPIC-ALS is an explorative, open-labeled, single-arm trial that evaluates the safety and tolerability of EPI-589 in patients with ALS. This trial consists of 12-week run-in, 24-week treatment, and 4-week follow-up periods. Patients will receive 500 mg of EPI-589 3 times daily over the 24-week treatment period. Clinical assessments include the mean monthly change of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Functional Rating Scale-Revised total score. The biomarkers are selected to analyze the effect on oxidative stress and neuronal damage. The plasma biomarkers are 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT), neurofilament light chain (NfL), phosphorylated neurofilament heavy chain (pNfH), homocysteine, and creatinine. The cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers are 8-OHdG, 3-NT, NfL, pNfH, and ornithine. The magnetic resonance biomarkers are fractional anisotropy in the corticospinal tract and N-acetylaspartate in the primary motor area. This trial began data collection in September 2021 and is expected to be completed in October 2023. This study can provide useful data to understand the characteristics of EPI-589.

重症筋無力症との鑑別を要したクッシング病の1例,
四国医学雑誌, Vol.78, No.5-6, 221-226, 2022年.

(要約): The patient is a 77-year-old woman with a history of diabetes mellitus that was refractory to the medication and dietary restrictions. Four months prior to the admission, she developed a dropped head and ptosis that worsened in the evening. These symptoms were improved by the edrophonium test and the 3 Hz repetitive nerve stimulation testing was positive ; nevertheless, anti-acetylcholine and anti-muscle-specific tyrosine kinase antibodies were negative. Further examination demonstrated sustained hypokalemia and high levels of cortisol and ACTH. Moreover, CRH and high-dose dexamethasone suppression testings were positive and MRI demonstrated pituitary microadenoma. Based on these findings, she was subsequently diagnosed with Cushing's disease. After the resection of the pituitary tumor, ptosis improved with an alleviation of systemic edema, suggesting that it was caused by an eyelid edema. This case uniquely illustrates that Cushing's disease may mimic myasthenia gravis. Differentiation of the two disorders is crucial as treatment with steroids could compromise the interpretation of diagnostic testings for Cushing's disease and might result in a disease exacerbation. In this case, the history of treatment-refractory diabetes mellitus was helpful cue to differentiate the two disorders.

Safety and tolerability of bosutinib in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (iDReAM study): A multicentre, open-label, dose-escalation phase 1 trial,
eClinicalMedicine, Vol.53, 101707, 2022.

(要約): Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease caused by the loss of motor neurons, and development of effective medicines is urgently required. Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-based drug repurposing identified the Src/c-Abl inhibitor bosutinib, which is approved for the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), as a candidate for the molecular targeted therapy of ALS. An open-label, multicentre, dose-escalation phase 1 study using a 3 + 3 design was conducted in 4 hospitals in Japan to evaluate the safety and tolerability of bosutinib in patients with ALS. Furthermore, the exploratory efficacy was evaluated using Revised ALS Functional Rating Scale (ALSFRS-R), predictive biomarkers including plasma neurofilament light chain (NFL) were explored, and single-cell RNA sequencing of iPSC-derived motor neurons was conducted. Patients, whose total ALSFRS-R scores decreased by 1-3 points during the 12-week, received escalating doses starting from 100 mg quaque die (QD) up to 400 mg QD based on dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) occurrence, and all participants who received one dose of the study drug were included in the primary analysis. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04744532, as Induced pluripotent stem cell-based Drug Repurposing for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Medicine (iDReAM) study. Between March 29, 2019 and May 7, 2021, 20 patients were enrolled, 13 of whom received bosutinib treatment and 12 were included in the safety and efficacy analyses. No DLTs were observed up to 300 mg QD, but DLTs were observed in 3/3 patients of the 400 mg QD cohort. In all patients receiving 100 mg-400 mg, the prevalent adverse events (AEs) were gastrointestinal AEs in 12 patients (92.3%), liver function related AEs in 7 patients (53.8%), and rash in 3 patients (23.1%). The safety profile was consistent with that known for CML treatment, and ALS-specific AEs were not observed. A subset of patients (5/9 patients) was found to respond well to bosutinib treatment over the 12-week treatment period. It was found that the treatment-responsive patients could be distinguished by their lower levels of plasma NFL. Furthermore, single-cell RNA sequencing of iPSC-derived motor neurons revealed the pathogenesis related molecular signature in patients with ALS showing responsiveness to bosutinib. This is the first trial of a Src/c-Abl inhibitor, bosutinib, for patients with ALS. The safety and tolerability of bosutinib up to 300 mg, not 400 mg, in ALS were described, and responsiveness of patients on motor function was observed. Since this was an open-label trial within a short period with a limited number of patients, further clinical trials will be required. AMED and iPS Cell Research Fund.

Identification and validation of a gray matter volume network in Alzheimer's disease,
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, Vol.440, 120344, 2022.

(要約): This study aims to identify and validate a gray matter volume network in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). To identify a disease-related network, a principal component analysis-based algorithm, Scaled Subprofile Model, was applied to gray matter volume data derived from structural T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging of the training sample that consisted of nine patients with AD (women, four; dementia, seven; mild cognitive impairment, two; age, 66.7 ± 8.8 [mean ± SD] years) with positive F-flutemetamol amyloid positron emission tomography and eight age-matched healthy controls obtained on-site. The network expression scores were calculated by topographic profile rating in the validation sample obtained via the Open Access Series of Imaging Studies and comprised 12 patients with AD dementia (women, four; age, 70.0 ± 3.7 years) and 12 age-matched healthy controls. A significant network from the training sample, for which subject expression differed between the groups (permutation test, P = 0.006; sensitivity and specificity, 100%; area under the curve, 1), was identified. This network was represented by the principal components 1, 2, and 3 and showed a relative decrease in the inferior parietal lobule including angular gyrus, inferior temporal gyrus, premotor cortex, amygdala, hippocampus, and precuneus. It significantly differed between the groups with a sensitivity, specificity, and area under the curve of 83%, 91%, and 0.85, respectively, in the validation sample (P = 0.003). An AD-related gray matter volume network that captured relevant regions was identified in amyloid positron emission tomography-positive patients and validated in an independent sample.

Early diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis based on fasciculations in muscle ultrasonography: A machine learning approach.,
Clinical Neurophysiology, Vol.140, 136-144, 2022.

(要約): We investigated 100 patients with ALS, including 50 with early-stage ALS within 9 months from onset, and 100 without ALS. Fifteen muscles were bilaterally observed for 10 s each and the presence of fasciculations was recorded. Hierarchical clustering and nominal logistic regression, neural network, or ensemble learning were applied to the training cohort comprising the early-stage ALS to develop MUS-based diagnostic models, and they were tested in the validation cohort comprising the later-stage ALS.

TDP-43 regulates cholesterol biosynthesis by inhibiting sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2.,
Scientific Reports, Vol.12, No.1, 2022.

(要約): Dyslipidemia is considered an essential component of the pathological process of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a fatal motor neuron disease. Although TAR DNA Binding Protein 43 kDa (TDP-43) links both familial and sporadic forms of ALS and cytoplasmic aggregates are a hallmark of most cases of ALS, the molecular mechanism and the in vivo relation of ALS dyslipidemia with TDP-43 have been unclear. To analyze the dyslipidemia-related gene expression by TDP-43, we performed expression microarray and RNA deep sequencing (RNA-Seq) using cell lines expressing high levels of TDP-43 and identified 434 significantly altered genes including sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2 (SREBP2), a master regulator of cholesterol homeostasis and its downstream genes. Elevated TDP-43 impaired SREBP2 transcriptional activity, leading to inhibition of cholesterol biosynthesis. The amount of cholesterol was significantly decreased in the spinal cords of TDP-43-overexpressed ALS model mice and in the cerebrospinal fluids of ALS patients. These results suggested that TDP-43 could play an essential role in cholesterol biosynthesis in relation to ALS dyslipidemia.

Repurposing bromocriptine for Aβ metabolism in Alzheimer's disease (REBRAnD) study: randomised placebo-controlled double-blind comparative trial and open-label extension trial to investigate the safety and efficacy of bromocriptine in Alzheimer's disease with presenilin 1 (PSEN1) mutations,
BMJ Open, Vol.11, No.6, e051343, 2021.

(要約): Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common causes of dementia. Pathogenic variants in the presenilin 1 (PSEN1) gene are the most frequent cause of early-onset AD. Medications for patients with AD bearing PSEN1 mutation (PSEN1-AD) are limited to symptomatic therapies and no established radical treatments are available. Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-based drug repurposing identified bromocriptine as a therapeutic candidate for PSEN1-AD. In this study, we used an enrichment strategy with iPSCs to select the study population, and we will investigate the safety and efficacy of an orally administered dose of bromocriptine in patients with PSEN1-AD. This is a multicentre, randomised, placebo-controlled trial. AD patients with PSEN1 mutations and a Mini Mental State Examination-Japanese score of ≤25 will be randomly assigned, at a 2:1 ratio, to the trial drug or placebo group (≥4 patients in TW-012R and ≥2 patients in placebo). This clinical trial consists of a screening period, double-blind phase (9 months) and extension phase (3 months). The double-blind phase for evaluating the efficacy and safety is composed of the low-dose maintenance period (10 mg/day), high-dose maintenance period (22.5 mg/day) and tapering period of the trial drug. Additionally, there is an open-labelled active drug extension period for evaluating long-term safety. Primary outcomes are safety and efficacy in cognitive and psychological function. Also, exploratory investigations for the efficacy of bromocriptine by neurological scores and biomarkers will be conducted. The proposed trial is conducted according to the Declaration of Helsinki, and was approved by the Institutional Review Board (K070). The study results are expected to be disseminated at international or national conferences and published in international journals following the peer-review process. jRCT2041200008, NCT04413344.

Long-Term Follow-Up of 12 Patients Treated with Bilateral Pallidal Stimulation for Tardive Dystonia,
Life, Vol.11, No.6, 477, 2021.

(要約): Tardive dystonia (TD) is a side effect of prolonged dopamine receptor antagonist intake. TD can be a chronic disabling movement disorder despite medical treatment. We previously demonstrated successful outcomes in six patients with TD using deep brain stimulation (DBS); however, more patients are needed to better understand the efficacy of DBS for treating TD. We assessed the outcomes of 12 patients with TD who underwent globus pallidus internus (GPi) DBS by extending the follow-up period of previously reported patients and enrolling six additional patients. All patients were refractory to pharmacotherapy and were referred for surgical intervention by movement disorder neurologists. In all patients, DBS electrodes were implanted bilaterally within the GPi under general anesthesia. The mean ages at TD onset and surgery were 39.2 ± 12.3 years and 44.6 ± 12.3 years, respectively. The Burke-Fahn-Marsden Dystonia Rating Scale (BFMDRS) performed the preoperative and postoperative evaluations. The average BFMDRS improvement rate at 1 month postoperatively was 75.6 ± 27.6% ( < 0.001). Ten patients were assessed in the long term (78.0 ± 50.4 months after surgery), and the long-term BFMDRS improvement was 78.0 ± 20.4%. Two patients responded poorly to DBS. Both had a longer duration from TD onset to surgery and older age at surgery. A cognitive and psychiatric decline was observed in the oldest patients, while no such decline ware observed in the younger patients. In most patients with TD, GPi-DBS could be a beneficial therapeutic option for long-term relief of TD.

Can Pallidal Deep Brain Stimulation Rescue Borderline Dystonia? Possible Coexistence of Functional (Psychogenic) and Organic Components.,
Brain Sciences, Vol.10, No.9, 636, 2020.

(要約): The diagnosis and treatment of functional movement disorders are challenging for clinicians who manage patients with movement disorders. The borderline between functional and organic dystonia is often ambiguous. Patients with functional dystonia are poor responders to pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS) and are not good candidates for DBS surgery. Thus, if patients with medically refractory dystonia have functional features, they are usually left untreated with DBS surgery. In order to investigate the outcome of functional dystonia in response to pallidal DBS surgery, we retrospectively included five patients with this condition. Their dystonia was diagnosed as organic by dystonia specialists and also as functional according to the Fahn and Williams criteria or the Gupta and Lang Proposed Revisions. Microelectrode recordings in the globus pallidus internus of all patients showed a cell-firing pattern of bursting with interburst intervals, which is considered typical of organic dystonia. Although their clinical course after DBS surgery was incongruent to organic dystonia, the outcome was good. Our results question the possibility to clearly differentiate functional dystonia from organic dystonia. We hypothesized that functional dystonia can coexist with organic dystonia, and that medically intractable dystonia with combined functional and organic features can be successfully treated by DBS surgery.

Co-morbidity of progressive supranuclear palsy and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: a clinical-pathological case report.,
BMC Neurology, Vol.19, No.1, 168, 2019.

(要約): A 77-year-old man presented with gait disturbance for 2 years, consistent with PSP with progressive gait freezing. At 79 years old, he developed muscle weakness compatible with ALS. The disease duration was 5 years after the onset of PSP and 5 months after the onset of ALS. Neuropathological findings demonstrated the coexistence of PSP and ALS. Immunohistochemical examination confirmed 4-repeat tauopathy, including globose-type neurofibrillary tangles, tufted astrocytes, and oligodendroglial coiled bodies as well as TAR DNA-binding protein 43 kDa pathology in association with upper and lower motor neuron degeneration. Immunoblotting showed hyperphosphorylated full-length 4-repeat tau bands (64 and 68 kDa) and C-terminal fragments (33 kDa), supporting the diagnosis of PSP and excluding other parkinsonian disorders, such as corticobasal degeneration. Genetic studies showed no abnormalities in genes currently known to be related to ALS or PSP.

Distinct Incidence of Takotsubo Syndrome Between Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Synucleinopathies: A Cohort Study.,
Frontiers in Neurology, Vol.9, 1099, 2018.

(要約): Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is an acute cardiac syndrome characterized by regional left ventricular dysfunction with a peculiar circumferential pattern, which typically results in apical ballooning. Evidence indicates a pivotal role of catecholamines in TTS, and researchers have discussed multiple hypotheses on the etiology, including multivessel coronary spasm, myocardial stunning, excessive transient ventricular afterload, and cardiac sympathetic overactivity with local noradrenaline spillover. Although central nervous system disorders, such as stroke and epilepsy, are known to trigger TTS, the incidence and clinical features of TTS in neurodegenerative disorders are poorly understood. Here, we retrospectively examined TTS cases in a single-center cohort composed of 250 patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and 870 patients with synucleinopathies [582 patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), 125 patients with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), and 163 patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA)] and identified 4 (1.6%, including 2 women) cases with ALS and no cases with synucleinopathies. Two ALS patients underwent autopsy and the pathological findings were compatible with the chronological changes identified in catecholamine-induced cardiomyopathy. A literature review identified 16 TTS cases with ALS, 1 case each with PD and DLB, and no cases with MSA. When current and previous TTS cases with ALS were concatenated: 55% (11/20) were female; 35% (7/20) had a bulbar-onset and 45% (9/20) had a limb-onset; the mean age of TTS onset was 63.3 ± 9.0 years and the mean interval time from ALS onset to TTS development was 4.9 ± 3.0 years; no (0/16) patients developed TTS within 12 months after ALS onset; 50% (10/20) underwent artificial ventilations; the mortality was 17% (3/18); and most cases had precipitating factors, and TTS development was associated with gastrostomy, tracheostomy, or infections in 45% (9/20) of the patients. This study demonstrated that ALS is a considerable predisposing factor of TTS and that synucleinopathies rarely cause TTS. The distinct TTS incidence between ALS and synucleinopathies may be due to cardiac sympathetic overactivity in ALS and may also be affected by cardiac sympathetic denervation in synucleinopathies. Moreover, the etiology of TTS in ALS may be reasonably explained by the two-hit theory.

Disruption of network for visual perception of natural motion in primary dystonia.,
Human Brain Mapping, Vol.39, No.3, 1163-1174, 2017.

(要約): In healthy subjects, brain activation in motor regions is greater during the visual perception of "natural" target motion, which complies with the two-thirds power law, than of "unnatural" motion, which does not. It is unknown whether motion perception is normally mediated by a specific network that can be altered in the setting of disease. We used block-design functional magnetic resonance imaging and covariance analysis to identify normal network topographies activated in response to "natural" versus "unnatural" motion. A visual motion perception-related pattern (VPRP) was identified in 12 healthy subjects, characterized by covarying activation responses in the inferior parietal lobule, frontal operculum, lateral occipitotemporal cortex, amygdala, and cerebellum (Crus I). Selective VPRP activation during "natural" motion was confirmed in 12 testing scans from healthy subjects. Consistent network activation was not seen, however, in 29 patients with dystonia, a neurodevelopmental disorder in which motion perception pathways may be involved. Using diffusion tractography, we evaluated the integrity of anatomical connections between the major VPRP nodes. Indeed, fiber counts in these pathways were substantially reduced in the dystonia subjects. In aggregate, the findings associate normal motion perception with a discrete brain network which can be disrupted under pathological conditions.

Tissue type plasminogen activator and edaravone combination therapy: YAMATO study,
Stroke, Vol.48, No.3, 712-719, 2017.

(要約): We investigated whether administration of edaravone, a free radical scavenger, before or during tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA) can enhance early recanalization in a major arterial occlusion. The YAMATO study (Tissue-Type Plasminogen Activator and Edaravone Combination Therapy) is an investigator-initiated, multicenter (17 hospitals in Japan), prospective, randomized, and open-label study. Patients with stroke secondary to occlusion of the M1 or M2 portion of the middle cerebral artery and within 4.5 hours of the onset were studied. The subjects were randomly allocated to the early group (intravenous edaravone [30 mg] was started before or during tPA) and the late group (edaravone was started after tPA and the assessment of early recanalization). One-hundred sixty-five patients (96 men; median age [interquartile range], of 78 [69-85] years) were randomized 1:1 to either the early group (82 patients) or the late group (83 patients). Primary outcome, defined as an early recanalization 1.5 hour after tPA, was observed in 53% of the early group and in 53% of the late group (P=1.000). About secondary outcomes, the rate of significant recanalization of ≥50% was not different between the 2 groups (28% versus 34%; P=0.393). The symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage has occurred in 4 patients (5%) in the early group and in 2 patients (2%) in the late group (P=0.443). The favorable outcome (modified Rankin Scale score of 0-2) at 3 months was also similar between the groups (53% versus 57%; P=0.738). The timing of edaravone infusion does not affect the rate of early recanalization, symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage, or favorable outcome after tPA therapy.

MR Spectroscopy in Patients with Hereditary Diffuse Leukoencephalopathy with Spheroids and Asymptomatic Carriers of Colony-stimulating Factor 1 Receptor Mutation.,
Magnetic Resonance in Medical Sciences, Vol.16, No.4, 297-303, 2016.

(要約): Hereditary diffuse leukoencephalopathy with spheroids (HDLS) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder with various clinical presentations. Mutation of the colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) gene is considered to be a cause of this autosomal dominant disorder. The purpose of this study was to report magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) findings in patients with HDLS and asymptomatic carriers and to clarify the use of MRS in this disease. In this retrospective, institutional review board-approved study, we included four consecutive patients, genetically diagnosed with HDLS, and two asymptomatic carriers after acquiring informed consent. We performed single-voxel MRS of the left centrum semiovale on a 3-T clinical scanner. We also included a sex-matched normal dataset. We quantified N-acetylaspartate (NAA), creatine, choline-containing compounds (Cho), glutamine, glutamate (Glu), myo-inositol (Ins), glutathione, lactate (Lac), and gamma-amino butyric acid using LCModel. We performed statistical analysis, and P value <0.05 was considered significant. In HDLS cases, MRS revealed decreased NAA and Glu concentrations, which probably reflected neuronal damage and/or loss, and a subsequent reduction of neurotransmitters. A patient with HDLS also had increased Cho and Ins concentrations, indicating gliosis, and increased Cho concentration was also observed in an asymptomatic carrier. This suggests that metabolic changes had already occurred in an asymptomatic state. We demonstrated changes in metabolite concentrations not only in patients with HDLS but also in asymptomatic CSF1R mutation carriers. Our study indicates that MRS is a potentially useful tool for the analysis of metabolic and pathophysiological findings of HDLS, even during the early stages of disease.

Parkinson's disease-related network topographies characterized with resting state functional MRI.,
Human Brain Mapping, Vol.38, No.2, 617-630, 2016.

(要約): Spatial covariance mapping can be used to identify and measure the activity of disease-related functional brain networks. While this approach has been widely used in the analysis of cerebral blood flow and metabolic PET scans, it is not clear whether it can be reliably applied to resting state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) data. In this study, we present a novel method based on independent component analysis (ICA) to characterize specific network topographies associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). Using rs-fMRI data from PD and healthy subjects, we used ICA with bootstrap resampling to identify a PD-related pattern that reliably discriminated the two groups. This topography, termed rs-MRI PD-related pattern (fPDRP), was similar to previously characterized disease-related patterns identified using metabolic PET imaging. Following pattern identification, we validated the fPDRP by computing its expression in rs-fMRI testing data on a prospective case basis. Indeed, significant increases in fPDRP expression were found in separate sets of PD and control subjects. In addition to providing a similar degree of group separation as PET, fPDRP values correlated with motor disability and declined toward normal with levodopa administration. Finally, we used this approach in conjunction with neuropsychological performance measures to identify a separate PD cognition-related pattern in the patients. This pattern, termed rs-fMRI PD cognition-related pattern (fPDCP), was topographically similar to its PET-derived counterpart. Subject scores for the fPDCP correlated with executive function in both training and testing data. These findings suggest that ICA can be used in conjunction with bootstrap resampling to identify and validate stable disease-related network topographies in rs-fMRI.

Extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type, manifesting as rapidly progressive dementia without any mass or enhancing brain lesion.,
Neuropathology, Vol.36, No.5, 456-463, 2016.

(要約): Among the many potential etiologies for rapidly progressive dementia (RPD), primary central nervous system extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal-type (ENKL) is a rare entity. We present the first reported case of autopsy-proven RPD due to ENKL without any mass or enhancing lesion of the brain. A 54-year-old immunocompetent man presented with RPD, myoclonus and ataxia. The mini-mental state examination (MMSE) score was 22/30. His brain MRI revealed progressive brain atrophy without gadolinium enhancement or mass lesion. Five months after the initial evaluation, cognitive impairment further worsened with an MMSE score of 3/30. At the advanced stage, lumbar MRI showed swollen cauda equina with gadolinium enhancement. The number of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA in cerebrospinal fluid had gradually increased. Twelve months after onset, the patient died of respiratory failure. Pathological findings revealed that lymphoma cells had diffusely invaded the meninges, parenchyma of the brain, spinal cord and cauda equina. Cells were positive for CD3, CD56 and EBV-encoded small RNAs and negative for CD20. No evidence of malignancy was identified in the visceral organs. This report indicates that ENKL should be recognized as one of the rare causes of RPD. Early testing for EBV-DNA in cerebrospinal fluid and imaging of cauda equina would be useful diagnostic tools.

The visual perception of natural motion: abnormal task-related neural activity in DYT1 dystonia.,
Brain, Vol.138, No.Pt 12, 3598-3609, 2015.

(要約): Although primary dystonia is defined by its characteristic motor manifestations, non-motor signs and symptoms have increasingly been recognized in this disorder. Recent neuroimaging studies have related the motor features of primary dystonia to connectivity changes in cerebello-thalamo-cortical pathways. It is not known, however, whether the non-motor manifestations of the disorder are associated with similar circuit abnormalities. To explore this possibility, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to study primary dystonia and healthy volunteer subjects while they performed a motion perception task in which elliptical target trajectories were visually tracked on a computer screen. Prior functional magnetic resonance imaging studies of healthy subjects performing this task have revealed selective activation of motor regions during the perception of 'natural' versus 'unnatural' motion (defined respectively as trajectories with kinematic properties that either comply with or violate the two-thirds power law of motion). Several regions with significant connectivity changes in primary dystonia were situated in proximity to normal motion perception pathways, suggesting that abnormalities of these circuits may also be present in this disorder. To determine whether activation responses to natural versus unnatural motion in primary dystonia differ from normal, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging to study 10 DYT1 dystonia and 10 healthy control subjects at rest and during the perception of 'natural' and 'unnatural' motion. Both groups exhibited significant activation changes across perceptual conditions in the cerebellum, pons, and subthalamic nucleus. The two groups differed, however, in their responses to 'natural' versus 'unnatural' motion in these regions. In healthy subjects, regional activation was greater during the perception of natural (versus unnatural) motion (P < 0.05). By contrast, in DYT1 dystonia subjects, activation was relatively greater during the perception of unnatural (versus natural) motion (P < 0.01). To explore the microstructural basis for these functional changes, the regions with significant interaction effects (i.e. those with group differences in activation across perceptual conditions) were used as seeds for tractographic analysis of diffusion tensor imaging scans acquired in the same subjects. Fibre pathways specifically connecting each of the significant functional magnetic resonance imaging clusters to the cerebellum were reconstructed. Of the various reconstructed pathways that were analysed, the ponto-cerebellar projection alone differed between groups, with reduced fibre integrity in dystonia (P < 0.001). In aggregate, the findings suggest that the normal pattern of brain activation in response to motion perception is disrupted in DYT1 dystonia. Thus, it is unlikely that the circuit changes that underlie this disorder are limited to primary sensorimotor pathways.

CSF cytokine profile distinguishes multifocal motor neuropathy from progressive muscular atrophy.,
Neurology® Neuroimmunology & Neuroinflammation, Vol.2, No.5, e138, 2015.

(要約): The CSF cytokine profile of patients with MMN is distinct from that of patients with PMA and ALS. The similarity of the cytokine profiles between patients with PMA and ALS suggests that PMA shares common immunologic features with ALS in the CNS, even without clinical evidence of upper motor neuron involvement.

(要約): A 36-year-old woman complained of general malaise. She presented with hyponatremia and plasma osmotic pressure was lower than urinary osmotic pressure. In addition, serum antidiuretic hormone level was higher than the measurement sensitivity. She was diagnosed with the syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion (SIADH). She fell into a coma despite correction of serum sodium level. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed high signal intensities in the cerebral cortex, striatum, thalamus, hypothalamus, midbrain, and pons in fluid-attenuated inversion recovery images. Spinal MRI revealed a longitudinally extending lesion in the cervical cord. Serum sample was positive for anti-aquaporin-4 antibody, supporting the diagnosis of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) combined with central pontine and extrapontine myelinolysis. In patients with NMOSD, the immune reaction can gradually cause destructive changes of the hypothalamus and lead to unstable ADH secretion in the absence of immunomodulatory treatment.

Intra-arterial signal on arterial spin labeling perfusion MRI to identify the presence of acute middle cerebral artery occlusion,
Cerebrovascular Diseases, Vol.38, No.3, 191-196, 2014.

(要約): The susceptibility vessel sign on gradient echo-type-T2*-weighted imaging is a well-known marker of arterial occlusion. Stagnant flow in front of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion sites may contribute to the intra-arterial, high-intensity signal on arterial spin labeling magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), making it another potential marker of MCA occlusion. We compared the intra-arterial, high-intensity signal and susceptibility vessel sign in patients with symptomatic MCA occlusion and patients without major vessel occlusion. We identified transient ischemic attack or ischemic stroke patients with (1) 3-T MRI performed within 24 h after clinical onset including arterial spin labeling, T2*-weighted imaging, and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and (2) either having MCA occlusion (n = 34 patients) or without major vessel occlusion (n = 24 patients). The intra-arterial, high-intensity signal was defined as an enlarged circular or linear bright hyperintensity within the artery. The susceptibility vessel sign was defined as an enlarged spot of hypointensity within the MCA, in which the diameter of the hypointense signal within the vessel exceeded the contralateral vessel diameter. The presence or absence of the intra-arterial, high-intensity signal and susceptibility vessel sign were assessed, along with their inter-rater agreement and consistency with the presence of MCA occlusion on MRA. The intra-arterial, high-intensity signal was detectable in 30 patients (52%), and susceptibility vessel sign was observed in 17 patients (29%). The sensitivity of the intra-arterial high-intensity signal was significantly higher than that of the susceptibility vessel sign (88% vs. 50%; p < 0.05). The accuracy of the intra-arterial high-intensity signal was also higher than that of the susceptibility vessel sign (93% vs. 71%; p < 0.05). The intra-arterial high-intensity signal was situated in the proximal regions of the susceptibility vessel sign on T2*WI within the MCA. Neither the intra-arterial high-intensity signal nor the susceptibility vessel sign was observed in patients without major vessel occlusion. Inter-rater agreement was good for intra-arterial high-intensity signal detection (κ = 0.73) and moderate for susceptibility vessel sign detection (κ = 0.47). The presence or absence of the intra-arterial high-intensity signal was highly consistent with that of MCA occlusion on MRA (κ = 0.74). The intra-arterial high-intensity signal on arterial spin labeling appears to be useful to identify the presence of acute MCA occlusion and may be associated with stagnant flow in front of occlusion sites. The intra-arterial high-intensity signal may also be used to identify the occlusion site.

Longitudinal Monitoring with Multiple MR Techniques in a Case of Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy Associated with Multiple Myeloma,
Magnetic Resonance in Medical Sciences, Vol.13, No.1, 55-59, 2014.

(要約): Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a demyelinating disease of the brain caused by the JC virus in immunocompromised patients. We report characteristic features of proton MR spectroscopy, 3-dimensional pseudo-continuous arterial spin labeling imaging, and diffusion tensor imaging in a 53-year-old patient with PML. The utility of multi-modal magnetic resonance techniques for longitudinal monitoring was indicated by their reevaluation over time and consideration of their relation to prognosis.

Reversibility of ischemic findings on 3-tesla magnetic resonance T2(*)-weighted image after recanalization,
The Journal of Medical Investigation : JMI, Vol.61, No.1,2, 190-196, 2014.

(要約): Ischemic vessel signs (IVS) can be detected on 3-tesla T2(*)-weighted magnetic resonance images as a vessel enlargement at the territory of acute ischemia caused by major vessel occlusion or stenosis. Here, we studied changes in IVS before and after recanalization by the administration of intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (IV rtPA), carotid artery stenting or percutaneous transluminal angioplasty in patients with major vessel occlusion or stenosis. We performed magnetic resonance imaging for all patients treated by IV rtPA at the time of admission, shortly after and 24-72 hours after treatment with IV rtPA. We reviewed the IVS to assess its natural course of IVS by assessing patients who did not recanalize. IVS tended to disappear after recanalization. Conversely, in patients without recanalization, IVS did not disappear shortly after IV rtPA; rather, it disappeared 24-72 hours after IV rtPA, especially in the presence of complete infarction. Recanalization by IV rtPA or endovascular treatment contributed to improved clinical deficits or the prevention from further progression. IVS can be a parameter of misery perfusion and an important factor to detect the patients who have an indication of treatment for recanalization.

Brush sign on 3-T t2*-weighted MRI as a potential predictor of hemorrhagic transformation after tissue plasminogen activator therapy,
Stroke, Vol.45, No.1, 274-276, 2014.

(要約): The brush sign (BS) is the enlargement of medullary veins on 3-T T2*-weighted MRI seen in patients with ischemic stroke because of major cerebral artery occlusion. However, the clinical relevance of BS in patients with acute stroke remains unclear. We assessed the correlation between detecting BS with the development of hemorrhagic transformation after intravenous thrombolysis. We enrolled consecutive patients with M1 or M2 occlusion treated with intravenous tissue plasminogen activator. We classified the patients into 2 groups: the group positive for BS (P-BS) and the group negative for BS (N-BS). We investigated the differences in MRI findings and the clinical outcome between the 2 groups. The subjects consisted of 36 patients (19 men; mean age, 74.7 years). Twenty-one patients (58%) had M1 occlusion, and 15 (42%) had M2 occlusion. Twenty-five patients (69%) were classified into the P-BS group and 11 (31%) into the N-BS group. Recanalization was observed in 15 (60%) and 10 (90%) patients in the P-BS and N-BS groups, respectively (P=0.116). Hemorrhagic transformation on MRI was observed more frequently in the P-BS group than in the N-BS group (64% versus 18%; P=0.027). A good outcome (mRS, 0-1) at discharge was found in 24% of patients in the P-BS group and in 45% of patients in the N-BS group (P=0.152). A multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the presence of BS (odds ratio, 9.08; 95% confidence interval, 1.4-59.8; P=0.022) was independently associated with hemorrhagic transformation. BS may predict the development of hemorrhagic transformation in patients with acute stroke treated with intravenous tissue plasminogen activator.

Increased interleukin-17 in the cerebrospinal fluid in sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease: a case-control study of rapidly progressive dementia,
Journal of Neuroinflammation, Vol.10, 135, 2013.

(要約): Inflammatory responses in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) remain elusive. We conducted a case-control study, in which 14 patients with sCJD, 14 with noninflammatory neurological disorders, and 14 with autoimmune encephalitis were enrolled. We used the suspension array system to measure the concentrations of 27 cytokines in CSF. The cytokine titers of the three groups were compared, and the correlation between the relevant cytokine titers and clinical parameters was investigated in the patients with sCJD. Levels of the two cytokines interleukin (IL)-1 receptor antagonist and IL-17 were significantly elevated in the patients with sCJD compared with those in the patients with noninflammatory neurological disorders: IL-17 levels in sCJD were approximately ten times higher than in the noninflammatory neurological disorders (mean, 35.46 vs. 3.45 pg/ml; P < 0.001) but comparable to that in encephalitis (mean, 32.16 pg/ml). In contrast, levels of classical proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-12(p70) and tumor necrosis factor-α were increased only in encephalitis. Although not significant, IL-17 titers tended to be higher in the patients with shorter disease duration before CSF sampling (r = -0.452; P = 0.104) and in those with lower CSF total protein concentrations (r = -0.473; P = 0.086). IL-17 is significantly increased in CSF in sCJD, which can be an early event in the pathogenesis of sCJD.

Basal ganglia hyperintensity on T1-weighted imaging of a patient with central nervous system metastasis producing carcinoembryonic antigens,
Internal Medicine, Vol.52, No.3, 381-383, 2013.

(要約): We herein report unusual basal ganglia hyperintense lesions on noncontrast T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging in a patient with central nervous system metastasis from lung adenocarcinoma that was treated with gefitinib. T2*-weighted magnetic resonance imaging showed no hypointense lesions, thereby excluding the possibility of calcification or haemorrhage. A stereotactic brain biopsy of the left basal ganglia lesions revealed atypical cells, some of which formed a glandular lumen with a micropapillary pattern. These cells were immunopositive for markers of lung adenocarcinoma, thereby confirming the diagnosis of metastasis. We speculate that proteins, including carcinoembryonic antigens from the adenocarcinoma cells in the basal ganglia, may have contributed to the hyperintensity observed on noncontrast T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging.

神経根障害で発症した神経サルコイドーシスの一例,
四国医学雑誌, Vol.68, No.3,4, 153-158, 2012年.

(要約): A52-year-old woman was referred to our hospital for further examination of thoracolumbarpain. As dysesthesia at Th4level was seen in neurological examination, thoracic radiculopathy ormyelopathy was suspected. Blood examination showed elevated level of serum ACE and lysozyme.Lymphadenopathy was evident in bilateral hila and mediastina with marked FDG and Galliumaccumulation in FDG-PET-CT and Gallium scintigraphy, respectively. The number of lymphocytesand the CD4/CD8ratio were increased in the BALF. Histological findings of specimens obtainedfrom the lung and the skin lesion revealed noncaseating epithelioid granuloma, which yielded thediagnosis of sarcoidosis. The cerebrospinal fluid examinations showed elevated level of cell counts,proteins and β2-microglobulin. Taken together, she was diagnosed as neurosarcoidosis with thoracicradiculopathy. Her symptoms were improved with oral administration of prednisolone, butthey were exacerbated when prednisolone dose was tapered to20mg/day. Combined therapy ofmethotrexate and prednisolone was initiated, thereafter her symptoms disappeared completely.

The TRK-fused gene is mutated in hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy with proximal dominant involvement.,
American Journal of Human Genetics, Vol.91, No.2, 320-329, 2012.

(要約): Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy with proximal dominant involvement (HMSN-P) is an autosomal-dominant neurodegenerative disorder characterized by widespread fasciculations, proximal-predominant muscle weakness, and atrophy followed by distal sensory involvement. To date, large families affected by HMSN-P have been reported from two different regions in Japan. Linkage and haplotype analyses of two previously reported families and two new families with the use of high-density SNP arrays further defined the minimum candidate region of 3.3 Mb in chromosomal region 3q12. Exome sequencing showed an identical c.854C>T (p.Pro285Leu) mutation in the TRK-fused gene (TFG) in the four families. Detailed haplotype analysis suggested two independent origins of the mutation. Pathological studies of an autopsied patient revealed TFG- and ubiquitin-immunopositive cytoplasmic inclusions in the spinal and cortical motor neurons. Fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus, a frequent finding in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, was also observed in the motor neurons with inclusion bodies. Moreover, TAR DNA-binding protein 43 kDa (TDP-43)-positive cytoplasmic inclusions were also demonstrated. In cultured cells expressing mutant TFG, cytoplasmic aggregation of TDP-43 was demonstrated. These findings indicate that formation of TFG-containing cytoplasmic inclusions and concomitant mislocalization of TDP-43 underlie motor neuron degeneration in HMSN-P. Pathological overlap of proteinopathies involving TFG and TDP-43 highlights a new pathway leading to motor neuron degeneration.

Antibodies to N-methyl-D-aspartate glutamate receptors in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease patients.,
Journal of Neuroimmunology, Vol.251, No.1-2, 90-93, 2012.

(要約): Psychiatric symptom can be a prominent feature early in Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), which is also common in autoantibody-mediated limbic encephalitis. We hypothesized that anti-neuronal autoantibodies, especially those against N-methyl-D-aspartate glutamate receptors (NMDAR), can also be associated with CJD. Thirteen patients with CJD and 13 patients with limbic encephalitis were enrolled. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated that serum of CJD patients reacted with neuronal components of the rat hippocampus, indicating that those samples contained anti-neuronal antibodies. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay revealed that titers of antibodies against peptides of GluN2B subunit of NMDAR were significantly elevated in the serum and cerebrospinal fluid of CJD patients.

Analysis of C9orf72 repeat expansion in 563 Japanese patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.,
Neurobiology of Aging, Vol.33, No.10, 2527.e11-6, 2012.

(要約): Recently, a hexanucleotide repeat expansion in C9orf72 was identified as the most common cause of both sporadic and familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia in Western populations. We analyzed 563 Japanese patients with ALS (552 sporadic and 11 familial) using fluorescent fragment-length analysis of C9orf72 and repeat-primed polymerase chain reaction analysis. Haplotype analysis was performed for 42 single nucleotide polymorphisms in patients with C9orf72 repeat expansion. C9orf72 repeat expansion was found in 2 patients with sporadic ALS (2/552 = 0.4%) and no patients with familial ALS (0/11 = 0%). In the probands' families, 1 primary progressive aphasia patient and 1 asymptomatic 76-year-old individual exhibited C9orf72 repeat expansion. All of the patients with the C9orf72 repeat expansion carried the 20-single nucleotide polymorphism consensus risk haplotype. The frequency of the C9orf72 repeat expansion among Japanese patients is much lower than in Western populations. The existence of a 76-year-old asymptomatic carrier supported the notion of incomplete penetrance. The C9orf72 mutation should be analyzed in sporadic ALS patients after determining their family histories not only of frontotemporal dementia but also of primary progressive aphasia.

Early detection of familial Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease on diffusion-weighted imaging before symptom onset.,
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, Vol.319, No.1-2, 130-132, 2012.

(要約): Familial Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) with V180I shows different clinical characteristics from classical CJD and is difficult to diagnose in the early stage. We report a CJD180 patient in whom results of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) led us to suspect CJD before symptoms started. A 68-year-old woman presented to our hospital with headache and nausea and underwent magnetic resonance imaging. DWI showed cortical hyperintensity. Three months later, cognitive function started to decline and CJD180 was diagnosed following genetic examination. In the early stage, ADC values were not decreased and single positron emission computed tomography demonstrated a decreased pattern like Alzheimer disease.

Multicentre multiobserver study of diffusion-weighted and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery MRI for the diagnosis of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease: a reliability and agreement study.,
BMJ Open, Vol.2, No.1, 649, 2012.

(要約): Objectives To assess the utility of the display standardisation of diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) and to compare the effectiveness of DWI and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) MRI for the diagnosis of sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD). Design A reliability and agreement study. Setting Thirteen MRI observers comprising eight neurologists and five radiologists at two universities in Japan. Participants Data of 1.5-Tesla DWI and FLAIR were obtained from 29 patients with sCJD and 13 controls. Outcome measures Standardisation of DWI display was performed utilising b0 imaging. The observers participated in standardised DWI, variable DWI (the display adjustment was observer dependent) and FLAIR sessions. The observers independently assessed each MRI for CJD-related lesions, that is, hyperintensity in the cerebral cortex or striatum, using a continuous rating scale. Performance was evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUC). Results The mean AUC values were 0.84 (95% CI 0.81 to 0.87) for standardised DWI, 0.85 (95% CI 0.82 to 0.88) for variable DWI and 0.68 (95% CI 0.63 to 0.72) for FLAIR, demonstrating the superiority of DWI (p<0.05). There was a trend for higher intraclass correlations of standardised DWI (0.74, 95% CI 0.66 to 0.83) and variable DWI (0.72, 95% CI 0.62 to 0.81) than that of FLAIR (0.63, 95% CI 0.53 to 0.74), although the differences were not statistically significant. Conclusions Standardised DWI is as reliable as variable DWI, and the two DWI displays are superior to FLAIR for the diagnosis of sCJD. The authors propose that hyperintensity in the cerebral cortex or striatum on 1.5-Tesla DWI but not FLAIR can be a reliable diagnostic marker for sCJD.

Nuclear factor B expression in patients with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and hereditary amyotrophic lateral sclerosis with optineurin mutations,
Clinical Neuropathology, Vol.31, No.6, 418-423, 2011.

(要約): Nuclear factor κ B (NF-κB) is involved in the pathogenesis of a number of neurodegenerative disorders with neuroinflammation. In order to clarify the role of NF-κB in ALS, immunohistochemical studies with an antibody that recognizes the p65 subunit of NF-κB were performed on the spinal anterior horn of 4 patients with sporadic ALS (sALS), 1 patient with optineurin-mutated ALS (OPTN-ALS), and 3 normal controls (NC). In patients with sALS or OPTN-ALS, the expression pattern of NF-κB was altered when compared to that of NC; NF-κB immunoreactivity tended to be absent from neuronal nucleus and was increased in microglia. The down-regulation of NF-κB in neuronal nucleus might contribute to a loss of neuroprotection, or neurons with nuclear NF-κB might be lost immediately after its activation. The microglial induction of NF-κB might contribute to neuroinflammation. In conclusion, NF-κB signaling pathway could have a key role in the pathomechanism of ALS.

Effects of a Brain-Engraftable Microglial Cell Line Expressing Anti-Prion scFv Antibodies on Survival Times of Mice Infected with Scrapie Prions.,
Cellular and Molecular Neurobiology, Vol.31, No.7, 999-1008, 2011.

(要約): We first verified that a single chain Fv fragment against prion protein (anti-PrP scFv) was secreted by HEK293T cells and prevented prion replication in infected cells. We then stably expressed anti-PrP scFv in brain-engraftable murine microglial cells and intracerebrally injected these cells into mice before or after infection with prions. Interestingly, the injection before or at an early time point after infection attenuated the infection marginally but significantly prolonged survival times of the mice. These suggest that the ex vivo gene transfer of anti-PrP scFvs using brain-engraftable cells could be a possible immunotherapeutic approach against prion diseases.

A new CSF1R mutation presenting with an extensive white matter lesion mimicking primary progressive multiple sclerosis.,
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2013.

(要約): HDLS (Hereditary Diffuse Leukodystrophy with Spheroids) is a hereditary leukodystrophy whose main clinical manifestations include parkinsonism, spasticity, and ataxia. Genetic defects in the colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) gene have been reported in many HDLS cases. The present report describes a new missense mutation Arg777Gln involving exon 18 of the CSF1R gene in a sporadic patient presenting with tumor-like lesions mimicking primary progressive multiple sclerosis. The patient was initially diagnosed with a progressive variant of multiple sclerosis and received inadequate treatments. Although most HDLS cases have a positive family history, this disease should also be suspected in sporadic patients showing unusual white matter lesions at MRI.

[Inflammatory mechanisms in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis].,
脳と神経 - 神経研究の進歩, Vol.64, No.3, 273-278, 2012年3月.

(要約): Neuroinflammation is a pathological hallmark in human amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients and in the transgenic models of the disease. The importance of glial cell activation and pro-inflammatory cytokines in ALS has been confirmed by numerous studies. For instance, tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-), a major pro-inflammatory cytokine, activates microglia and cause neurotoxicity in motor neurons. More recently, the relationship of nuclear factor-B (NF-B) and motor neuron degeneration has garnered attention since optineurin (OPTN) mutations were reported in familial ALS. OPTN negatively regulates TNF--induced NF-B activation, but OPTN mutations can lead to dysinhibition of NF-B-induced neurotoxicity. Notably, OPTN-positive inclusions are observed not only in familial ALS with OPTN mutation but also in sporadic ALS and in familial ALS with SOD1 and fused in sarcoma mutations, suggesting that OPTN- and NF-B-related pathways are relevant to the general pathomechanisms of ALS. In this review, we discuss inflammatory aspects of ALS comprising the roles of cytokines, glial cells, and T cells.

Pathomechanisms of motor neuron death by mutant TFG.,
Clinical Neurology, Vol.23, No.11, 1199, 2013.

(要約): Mutations in TFG gene have been demonstrated in hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy with proximal dominant involvement (HMSN-P) and hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP). A broad spectrum of TFG pathology is suspected in motor neuron diseases including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We performed mutation screening of TFG gene in ALS cases and evaluated the biological functions of mutant TFG by expression experiment in cultured cells. Two missense mutations associated with sporadic ALS were discovered. Mislocalization of ALS-related proteins, including TDP-43 and optineurin, was demonstrated. These results indicate that mistrafficking of ALS-related proteins by mutant TFG might be a biological cascade leading to motor neuron death.
