Features of this autosomal dominant illness are progressive insomnia, dysautonomia, myoclonus, cognitive decline and motor signs associated with thalamic nerve cell loss and gliosis. In contrast to the new variant of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) the onset of FFI is in middle to late adulthood. We report two male patients who belong to a large German FFI kindred. They were examined clinically, and postmortem neuropathological examination was carried out in collaboration with the German reference centre for prion disease. Additionally, the prion protein gene (PRNP) was analysed. To identify further patients with disease onset under 30 years of age a comprehensive literature review was carried out. Two male patients presented with typical symptoms of FFI at the age of 23 and 24 years. In their kindred, the age of onset has never before been under 44 years of age. Our literature review identified five additional early onset cases who died at age 21 to 25 years. In all 22 reviewed FFI families the median manifestation age was 49.5 years. Although phenotypic variability of FFI is common, age of onset under 30 years has been considered to be a hallmark of vCJD with a mean manifestation at 27 years of age. Our findings underline that in addition to vCJD, FFI must be considered in cases of young-onset prion disease. This has considerable impact on clinical management and genetic counselling."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s00415-004-0409-0"],["dc.identifier.isi","000222251000011"],["dc.identifier.pmid","15311348"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/48236"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Dr Dietrich Steinkopff Verlag"],["dc.relation.issn","0340-5354"],["dc.title","Early age of onset in fatal familial insomnia - Two novel cases and review of the literature"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]Details DOI PMID PMC WOS1999Journal Article Research Paper [["dc.bibliographiccitation.firstpage","8866"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.issue","20"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.journal","The Journal of neuroscience"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.lastpage","8875"],["dc.bibliographiccitation.volume","19"],["dc.contributor.author","Herms, J."],["dc.contributor.author","Tings, T"],["dc.contributor.author","Gall, S."],["dc.contributor.author","Madlung, A."],["dc.contributor.author","Giese, Armin"],["dc.contributor.author","Siebert, H."],["dc.contributor.author","Schurmann, P."],["dc.contributor.author","Windl, Otto"],["dc.contributor.author","Brose, Nils"],["dc.contributor.author","Kretzschmar, Hans"],["dc.date.accessioned","2017-09-07T11:47:27Z"],["dc.date.available","2017-09-07T11:47:27Z"],["dc.date.issued","1999"],["dc.description.abstract","The prion protein (PrPC) is a copper-binding protein of unknown function that plays an important role in the etiology of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. Using morphological techniques and synaptosomal fractionation methods, we show that PrPC is predominantly localized to synaptic membranes. Atomic absorption spectroscopy was used to identify PrPC-related changes in the synaptosomal copper concentration in transgenic mouse lines. The synaptic transmission in the presence of H2O2, which is known to be decomposed to highly reactive hydroxyl radicals in the presence of iron or copper and to alter synaptic activity, was studied in these animals. The response of synaptic activity to H2O2 was found to correlate with the amount of PrPC expression in the presynaptic neuron in cerebellar slice preparations from wild-type, Prnp(0/0), and PrP gene-reconstituted transgenic mice.

Herein we present data that strongly indicate a functional link between PrPC-expression and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (Pl 3-kinase) activation, a protein kinase that plays a pivotal role in cell survival. Both Mouse neuroblastoma N2a cells and immortalized murine hippocampal neuronal cell lines expressing wild-type PrPC had significantly higher Pl 3-kinase activity levels than their respective controls. Moreover, PI 3-kinase activity was found to be elevated in brain lysates from wild-type mice as compared to prion protein-knockout mice. Recruitment of Pl 3-kinase by PrPC was shown to contribute to cellular survival toward oxidative stress by using 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1) and Serum deprivation. Moreover, both PI 3-kinase activation and cytoprotection by PrPC appeared to rely oil copper binding to the N-terminal octapeptide of PrPC. Thus, we propose a model in which the interaction of copper(II) with the N-terminal domain of PrPC enables transduction of a signal to PI 3-kinase: the latter. in turn, mediates downstream regulation Of Cell Survival.

Immuno histochemical analysis was performed on the thalami from 21 sCJD patients and five controls. The number of PV+ neurones was counted in the thalamic nuclei and compared with clinical and molecular findings.
