MECANISMO DE DOENÇA

Ceroid lipofuscinosis, neuronal, 3

A form of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis. Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses are progressive neurodegenerative, lysosomal storage diseases characterized by intracellular accumulation of autofluorescent liposomal material, and clinically by seizures, dementia, visual loss, and/or cerebral atrophy. The hallmark of CLN3 is the ultrastructural pattern of lipopigment with a fingerprint profile, which can have 3 different appearances: pure within a lysosomal residual body; in conjunction with curvilinear or rectilinear profiles; and as a small component within large membrane-bound lysosomal vacuoles. The combination of fingerprint profiles within lysosomal vacuoles is a regular feature of blood lymphocytes from patients with neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 3.

A timeline of symptom onset and disease progression in CLN3 disease.

Orphanet journal of rare diseases2026 Jan 07

CLN3 disease, or Juvenile Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (JNCL), is a rare, genetic neurodegenerative condition, typically manifesting in the first decade of life and progressing in severity, with death typically occurring in early adulthood. Despite two decades of natural history research, a clear timeline of CLN3 disease symptom onset and progression remains poorly defined, limiting optimal patient management and therapeutic development. We conducted a literature review and analysed the natural history data to better understand the age of core symptom onset and chronological disease progression. A literature review was undertaken using a pre-defined search strategy focused on CLN3 disease natural history studies, where age at onset for one or more core symptoms was reported in cohorts of ≥ 15 subjects. For each symptom, weighted mean age at onset and weighted standard deviation were calculated, with 95% confidence intervals derived from the weighted standard error. Symptom onset ages were compared using ANOVA. We identified nine natural history studies that met our pre-defined criteria. In total, 423 discrete patients aged between 4 and 39 years were reported. Thirteen core symptoms and a weighted average age at onset and weighted standard deviation were (in years): vision loss (6.1 ± 1.6, N = 254), behavioural changes (8.5 ± 3.9, N = 194), cognitive decline (9.3 ± 3.1, N = 219), seizures (10.2 ± 3.0, N = 243), sleep disturbance (11.0 ± 6.1, N = 111), motor decline (11.0 ± 3.8, N = 108), complete blindness (11.4 ± 3.6, N = 171), speech and language impairment (12.7 ± 4.8, N = 136), Parkinsonian gait (14.1 ± 2.5, N = 111), cardiac manifestations (17.8 ± 4.4, N = 45), loss of independent walking (19.5 ± 3.2, N = 70), feeding difficulties requiring enteral feeding tube (22.0 ± 1.6, N = 35), and death (22.4 ± 4.4, N = 95). This comprehensive summary of available natural history data illustrates mean age at onset of 13 core symptoms of CLN3 disease, and characterises a chronological timeline of disease progression. These results provide much-needed practical, anticipatory guidance to those involved in caring for individuals with CLN3 disease, and serve to highlight the critical importance of collecting globally standardised, quantifiable, longitudinal data for optimising patient management and advancing therapeutic approaches for CLN3 disease.

Longitudinal deep multi-omics profiling in a CLN3Δex7/8 minipig model identifies biomarker signatures of disease.

Communications medicine2026 Mar 03

Development of therapies for CLN3 disease, a rare pediatric lysosomal storage disorder, has been hindered by the lack of etiological insights and translatable biomarkers to clinics. We used a deep multi-omics approach to discover blood-based biomarkers using longitudinal serum samples from a porcine model of CLN3 disease. Comprehensive metabolomics was combined with a nanoparticle-based LC-MS-based proteomic profiling coupled with TMTpro 18-plex to generate quantitative data on 769 metabolites and 2634 proteins, collectively the most exhaustive multi-omics profile conducted on serum from a porcine model. This was previously impossible due to lack of efficient deep serum proteome profiling technologies compatible with model organisms. Here we show that the presymptomatic disease state is characterized by elevations in glycerophosphodiester species and lysosomal proteases, while later timepoints are enriched with species involved in immune cell activation and sphingolipid metabolism. Cathepsin S (CTSS), Cathepsin B (CTSB), glycerophosphoinositol, and glycerophosphoethanolamine captured a large portion of the genotype-correlated variation between healthy and diseased animals, suggesting that an index score based on these analytes could have great utility in the clinic. This study's findings demonstrate the potential of deep multi-omics profiling for uncovering disease-specific biomarkers, providing valuable insights for understanding disease and facilitating the identification of potential drug targets, thus offering valuable insights for therapeutic interventions. Batten disease is a rare childhood disorder in which brain cells become damaged and there is a decline in physical and mental abilities. It is difficult to monitor disease progression or response to treatments as there are no established components of the blood (biomarkers) that can be used to identify people with the disease. Identifying such biomarkers is critical to understanding why disease develops and to enable development of treatments. We used a large animal model of Batten disease to investigate whether blood-based biomarkers could be identified. We developed a scoring framework that accurately distinguishes disease from control samples. These findings suggest that the identified biomarkers have the potential to be used to determine response in clinical trials.

Visual Recovery and Neurological Stabilization Following Miglustat Treatment in Pediatric CLN3 Disease.

Journal of child neurology2025 Sep 18

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 3 (CLN3) disease is a rare, life-limiting pediatric neurodegenerative disorder with no approved disease-modifying therapy. We conducted a prospective case report from October 2023 to April 2025 involving two female siblings with genetically confirmed CLN3 disease (homozygous for the common 1 kb deletion). Both patients were treated with oral, weight-based miglustat for 18 months. Miglustat was supplied as off-label use in the absence of a therapeutic alternative for this severe neurodegenerative disorder. Clinical outcomes were assessed using comprehensive ophthalmologic evaluation, the Unified Batten Disease Rating Scale (UBDRS), and the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Third Edition (Vineland-3). At the time of report, patients were aged 13 and 10 years. Both had been diagnosed at age 7 years and commenced miglustat at ages 11 and 9 years, respectively. Over the treatment period, both patients demonstrated improvement in visual acuity and clinical stabilization on the Unified Batten Disease Rating Scale. One patient showed measurable improvement in adaptive functioning as assessed by Vineland-3. No significant adverse effects were reported. These preliminary findings suggest potential short-term clinical benefit of miglustat in pediatric patients with CLN3 disease, particularly when initiated early in the disease course. Further studies involving larger cohorts and longer follow-up are warranted to evaluate the safety and long-term efficacy of miglustat in this population.

Long-Term Open-Label Study Evaluating Oral Miglustat Treatment in Patients With Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis Type 3.

Neurology2025 Oct 07

Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 3 (CLN3) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder characterized by progressive neurodegeneration. No disease-modifying treatments are currently available. Miglustat, a substrate reduction therapy, has shown preclinical efficacy in CLN3 models (conference abstract). The aim of this study was to assess the long-term safety and clinical impact of miglustat in patients with CLN3 disease. This was an open-label, single-center study conducted at Bambino Gesù Children's Hospital in Rome, Italy. Oral miglustat was titrated to 15 mg/kg/d or a maximum of 600 mg/d. Patients were assessed every 6 months using the Unified Batten Disease Rating Scale (UBDRS). The primary outcome was the annual rate of change in the UBDRS physical subscale. Clinical data were analyzed descriptively. Six patients (33% female) with a median age of 20.34 years (interquartile range [IQR] 18.25-23.84) were treated and followed for a median of 3.9 years (IQR 3.32-4.34). The mean annual change in the UBDRS physical score was +1.96 points per year (SD ± 0.80). Miglustat was well tolerated, with only mild, self-limiting gastrointestinal side effects observed. Miglustat showed a favorable safety profile and was associated with a slower rate of physical decline compared with historical controls. Limitations include small sample size, genetic heterogeneity, and open-label design.
