ORPHA:98892CID-10 · Q04.8CID-11 · LA05.5YDOENÇA RARA

A heterotopia nodular periventricular (HPN) é uma malformação cerebral, devido à migração neuronal anormal, na qual um subconjunto de neurônios não consegue migrar para o córtex cerebral em desenvolvimento e permanece como nódulos que revestem a superfície ventricular. A HPN clássica é uma doença dominante rara, ligada ao cromossomo X, muito mais frequente em mulheres que apresentam inteligência normal a déficit intelectual limítrofe, epilepsia de gravidade variável e sinais extra-central do sistema nervoso, especialmente defeitos cardiovasculares ou coagulopatia. O distúrbio geralmente está associado à letalidade pré-natal em homens.

Characterization of a Splice Variant in FLNA Associated With Periventricular Nodular Heterotopia.

Neurology. Genetics2026 Apr

Periventricular nodular heterotopia (PNH) is a neuronal migration disorder caused by the failure of neurons to migrate properly to the cerebral cortex, characterized predominantly by epilepsy. Most PNH cases are associated with variants in FLNA, which is inherited in an X-linked pattern and exhibits a female predominance. Affected male patients typically experience prenatal or early postnatal lethality; only those with distal truncating or mosaic variants have been reported to survive. In this study, we aimed to characterize the clinical and genetic features of a Chinese pedigree with PNH. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed on genomic DNA isolated from the peripheral blood. Mosaicism levels were quantified using droplet digital PCR (ddPCR), transcriptomic alterations were analyzed by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), and splicing defects were investigated via a minigene splicing assay. WES analysis identified a novel splicing variant (NM_001110556.2: c.4599-2A > G) in the FLNA gene of the proband. Sanger sequencing revealed a double peak at the same site in her father. Droplet digital PCR confirmed paternal somatic mosaicism, with variant allele frequencies of 65.98% in the blood, 60.38% in the sperm, and 28.95% in the buccal mucosa. RNA-seq and minigene assays detected an aberrant transcript containing a 10 bp deletion at the 5' end of exon 28. The minigene assay further revealed 2 mutant transcripts: one with the same 10 bp deletion and another with complete skipping of exon 28. This study expands the phenotypic and genetics spectrum of PNH and demonstrates a dual PNH phenotype with a bi-transcript mechanism. It also provides clinical evidence of mosaic inheritance and tissue-specific mosaicism, offering valuable implications for genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis.

Biallelic variants in CELSR1 cause brain malformations, neurodevelopmental disorders and epilepsy in humans.

Nature communications2026 Jan 13

The CELSR1 gene is a core component of the tissue/planar cell polarity signaling pathway. It encodes a developmentally regulated protein that belongs to the adhesion G protein-coupled receptors. Herein we describe seven subjects, from five unrelated families, featuring a neurodevelopmental disorder associated with biallelic CELSR1 variants. The main phenotypic features of this disorder are different types of brain malformations (including pachygyria, periventricular nodular heterotopia, abnormal corpus callosum, white matter abnormalities, hypoplasia of brainstem and cerebellum), variable degrees of neurodevelopmental delay and intellectual disability, behavioral disorders, and, in some subjects, epilepsy. Using whole exome sequencing, we identify five compound heterozygous variants and one homozygous variant of CELSR1 in these subjects. We infer the pathogenicity and functional effects of these variants through bioinformatic analysis, protein modelling and prediction tools. To further characterize the effects of mutant CELSR1, we generate Celsr1 knockout mice, which exhibit partial agenesis of the corpus callosum, periventricular heterotopia and irregular shape of the ventricular/subventricular zone, enlarged lateral ventricles with a fully penetrant phenotype, and increased susceptibility to seizures. These findings emphasize the importance of CELSR1 in several polarity-dependent processes during embryonic and postnatal development.

Brain network characteristics of favorable outcomes following radiofrequency thermocoagulation for drug-resistant epilepsy in periventricular nodular heterotopia patients.

BMC neurology2026 Jan 07

This study investigated the brain network characteristics that are associated with favorable outcomes following radiofrequency thermocoagulation (RF-TC) treatment in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy related to periventricular nodular heterotopia (PNH). The goal of the study was to elucidate the potential alterations exhibited by the epileptic networks of PNH patients and provide insights for optimizing surgical strategies. Seven PNH patients were enrolled. Stereoelectroencephalography data collected from four patients were analyzed. The channels were categorized as thermocoagulated (TC; n = 107) or non-thermocoagulated (non-TC; n = 368). Two 200-second epochs were selected for analysis purposes: one preceding RF-TC and one commencing 15 min after RF-TC. The power spectral density (PSD) and functional connectivity (FC) changes were compared between these epochs. To mitigate the potential volume conduction effects amplified by post-RF-TC lesions, the phase lag index (PLI) was employed alongside mutual information (MI) for the FC analysis, providing a more robust assessment of network changes. At the 12-month follow-up point, all seven patients achieved Engel class I outcomes. After RF-TC, the PSD decreased significantly across all frequency bands in both TC channels (p < 0.01 for all bands) and only θ band (p < 0.001) in non-TC channels with a more pronounced reduction observed in the TC channels. An MI-based FC analysis revealed increased FC across almost all bands in the TC channels after RF-TC (δ band: p = 0.542; other bands: p < 0.01). Conversely, the non-TC channels exhibited decreased FC in all bands except δ and ripple bands. A PLI-based analysis revealed a significant differences between TC and non-TC channels in the β (p = 0.001) and low-ripple band (p = 0.011) for the post-TC period. Nodules and/or the overlying cortex exhibiting epileptic network connectivity may function as a seizure generation unit, potentially facilitated and augmented by other networks. PLI-detected β and ripple band changes may constitute the key phase-synchronous pathway through which RF-TC modulates brain networks. Clinical trial number: not applicable.

MAP1B Variants Disrupt Neuronal Migration: Insights From Three Novel Families.

Clinical genetics2026 Mar

MAP1B (microtubule-associated protein 1B) encodes a cytoskeletal regulator critical for neuronal migration, axon guidance, and cortical circuit formation. Disease-causing variants (DCVs) in MAP1B have recently emerged as a cause of neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by intellectual disability, epilepsy, and cortical malformations, including periventricular nodular heterotopia (PVNH) and polymicrogyria (PMG). However, the phenotypic and neuroimaging spectrum associated with MAP1B-related disease remains incompletely defined. We describe seven affected individuals from three unrelated families with pathogenic MAP1B variants. Clinical, neuroimaging, and genetic data were analyzed in the context of emerging literature to delineate the pathogenic mechanisms and phenotypic variability associated with MAP1B dysfunction. All individuals carried loss of function MAP1B variants. Clinical features included global developmental delay, intellectual disability, behavioural dysregulation, and focal epilepsy. Neuroimaging revealed anteriorly predominant PVNH in four of five cases with neuroimaging available. These findings reinforce MAP1B's central role in cytoskeletal regulation, neuronal positioning, and synaptic connectivity. Functional data from animal and cell models support a mechanism involving impaired microtubule stabilization, altered growth cone dynamics, and dysregulated axon branching. Our case series expands the clinical and radiological phenotype associated with MAP1B-related disorders and highlights its position as a key cytoskeletal regulator in human corticogenesis. Systematic genotype-phenotype correlation and functional studies are needed to inform diagnostic interpretation and explore therapeutic avenues in MAP1B-associated disease.

Old Lesions and New Targets: sEEG-Identified Onsets in Traditionally Inoperable Epilepsy Lesions and Associated Surgical Outcomes.

Pediatric neurosurgery2026 Mar 03

Patients with epilepsy who do not respond to pharmacotherapy are often offered a noninvasive diagnostic workup to localize an epileptogenic focus that might be treated with resection, neuromodulation, or ablation. Yet in many cases, this evaluation fails to identify surgical candidates. For example, patients with tuberous sclerosis, periventricular nodular heterotopia, or polymicrogyria may have clearly visible lesions on MRI, but the resulting epileptogenic onset zones/networks are often too complex for scalp electroencephalography to decode. Similarly, seizures arising from the cingulate gyrus originate in deep structures that are inaccessible to noninvasive techniques. In post-traumatic epilepsy without a dominant lesion such as mesial temporal sclerosis, injury is often too diffuse to define a clear seizure-onset zone. Stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG), with its ability to map deep brain networks in detail, offers a unique solution for these challenging cases. In this review, we highlight how sEEG has expanded surgical options and provided hope for seizure freedom in patients once considered medically and surgically untreatable, and we aim to encourage further study into its potential applications.
