GGC Repeat Expansion of NOTCH2NLC in Adult Patients with Leukoencephalopathy

Abstract excerpt

Leukoencephalopathies comprise a broad spectrum of disorders, but the genetic background of adult leukoencephalopathies has rarely been assessed. In this study, we analyzed 101 Japanese patients with genetically unresolved adult leukoencephalopathy using whole-exome sequencing and repeat-primed polymerase chain reaction for detecting GGC expansion in NOTCH2NLC. NOTCH2NLC was recently identified as the cause of...
