CLN3 patients with differing progression of the disease
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Mutations in the CLN3 gene lead to juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, a pediatric neurodegenerative disorder characterized by visual loss, epilepsy and psychomotor deterioration. Although most CLN3 patients carry the same 1 kb deletion in the CLN3 gene, their disease phenotype can be variable. The aims of this study were (1) to identify genes that are dysregulated in CLN3 disease regardless of the clinical course that could be useful as biomarkers, and (2) to find modifier genes that affect the progression rate of the disease. Genome-wide expression profiling was performed in 8 CLN3 patients, homozygous for the 1 kb deletion, with different disease progression and compared to seven age and gender matched controls.
