The Genetic Puzzle of a SOD1-Patient with Ocular Ptosis and a Motor Neuron Disease: How Many Variants Contribute to the Phenotype?
2023-07-26
Abstract excerpt
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease with a complex genetic architecture, showing monogenic, oligogenic, and polygenic inheritance. In this study, we describe the case of a 71 years-old man diagnosed with ALS with an atypical phenotype, due to the presence of a progressive ocular ptosis. Genetic analyses revealed two variants in SOD1 and TBK1 genes respectively and the LHON-associated...
