Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/motor neuron disease v1.69 OPTN Arina Puzriakova Added comment: Comment on publications: PMID: 26566915 - "Here, we report a Chinese family spanning three generations with ALS8 caused by the same VAPB-P56S mutation detected in these cohorts, but which in its initial manifestation displays different features. We also detected a R545Q variant of optineurin (OPTN) in this family and which was previously considered a pathogenic mutation. However, our analysis showed that OPTN-R545Q is benign and that VAPB-P56S accounts for the phenotype."
PMID: 26503823
PMID: 26303227 "We conclude that: (i) OPTN mutations are associated with ALS
(ii) optineurin protein is present in a subset of the extramotor inclusions of C9ORF72-ALS
(iii) It is not uncommon for multiple ALS-causing mutations to occur in the same patient
and (iv) studies of optineurin are likely to provide useful dataregarding the pathophysiology of ALS and neurodegeneration."
