Associated with Lipodystrophy, familial partial, type 9 620683 (AR) in OMIM where Demyelinating sensorimotor neuropathy is listed as a clinical feature.

PMID: 37919452 - Schuermans et al 2023 - 7 patients from 4 unrelated families with 3 different homozygous variants (c.16-4823_118+167del p.(Pro6ValfsTer15), c.286dupG p.(Ala96GlyfsTer16) and c.339C>A p.(Cys113Ter). All patients had generalized or partial lipoatrophy, insulin resistance and Liver steatosis, and 6/7 showed Dyslipidemia/hypertriglyceridemia. Demyelinating peripheral neuropathy was seen in 5/7 patients from all 4 families. Psychomotor retardation/intellectual disability was observed in 3/7 patients but the severity is not recorded.

Age of onset of symptoms was 19 years, 8 years, 9 months, 4 years, 4 years (not available for 2 patients).

Function studies with PLAAT3 inactivation in human adipose stem cells provides evidence for PLAAT3 in PPARγ-mediated adipogenesis.
