NOTCH3 mutations in a cohort of Portuguese patients within CADASIL spectrum phenotype.

Abstract excerpt

Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is the most common inherited cerebral small vessel disease. It is caused by mutations in the NOTCH3 gene, which encodes a membranebound receptor protein with three main distinct functional domains.
