ADH is a familial form of isolated hypoparathyroidism characterized by hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, and normal to hypoparathyroidism. Inheritance of the disorder follows an autosomal dominant mode. The patients are generally asymptomatic. A significant fraction of cases of idiopathic hypoparathyroidism may in fact be ADH.
More than 80% of the reported ADH kindreds have CaSR mutations. There are 44 activating mutations of CaSR reported that produce a gain of CaSR function when expressed in in vitro systems. The majority of the ADH mutations are missense mutations within the extracellular domain and transmembrane domain of CaSR. The mechanism of CaSR activation by these mutations is not known. Interestingly, almost every ADH family has its own unique missense heterozygous CaSR mutation. Most ADH patients are heterozygous. The only deletion-activating mutation occurs in a homozygous patient in an ADH family. However, there is no apparent difference in the severity of the phenotype between heterozygous and homozygous patients.

More than 80% of the reported ADH kindreds have CaSR mutations. There are 44 activating mutations of CaSR reported in the literature. These mutations produce a gain of CaSR function when expressed in in vitro systems [13,117]. The majority of the ADH mutations are missense mutations within the extracellular domain and transmembrane domain of CaSR. In addition, a deletion in the intracellular domain, p.S895_V1075del, has also been described in an ADH family. The mechanism of CaSR activation by these mutations is not known. Worthwhile noting is that almost every ADH family has its own unique missense heterozygous CaSR mutation [117]. Most ADH patients are heterozygous. The only deletion-activating mutation occurs in a homozygous patient in an ADH family. However, there is no apparent difference in the severity of the phenotype between heterozygous and homozygous patients.

Isolated autosomal dominant PLD (ADPLD) (MIM 174050) also occurs as a genetically distinct disease in the absence of renal cysts (274, 281, 328). Like ADPKD, ADPLD is genetically heterogeneous, with two genes identified (PRKCSH and SEC63) accounting for approximately one third of isolated ADPLD cases (49, 57, 166). ADPLD often goes undetected even in first-degree relatives of patients with highly symptomatic polycystic liver disease. As in the case of polycystic liver disease associated with ADPKD, isolated ADPLD is more severe in women than in men. Liver function tests remain normal and when symptoms develop, these are related to mass effects or complications such as cyst hemorrhage or infection. Patients with isolated ADPLD may also be at increased risk for intracranial aneurysms and valvular heart disease (274).

ADVIRC was first described by Kaufman et al. in 198273 as a condition with: (1) an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern; (2) peripheral pigmentary retinopathy for 360 degrees, with a discrete posterior boundary near the equator (see Fig. 42.9); (3) punctate whitish opacities in the retina; (4) vitreous cells and fibrillar condensation; (5) blood–retinal barrier breakdown; (6) retinal arteriolar narrowing and occlusion; (7) retinal neovascularization; (8) choroidal atrophy; and (9) presenile cataracts (see Fig. 42.9).74 The EOG is usually abnormal with a relatively normal ERG,75 but the first electrophysiologic studies of ADVIRC patients27,75,76 occurred in the pre-molecular era when genetic testing was not available. It has since been discovered that ADVIRC is caused by splice-altering mutations in BEST1 and that these patients can also have concomitant developmental abnormalities, including microcornea, hyperopia, and shortened axial length.26,77,78 Some patients have a severe form of ADVIRC in which both the ERG and EOG are abnormal, thus resembling retinitis pigmentosa.79,80

Autosomal dominant epilepsy with auditory features (ADEAF), also known as autosomal dominant lateral temporal lobe epilepsy (ADLTLE), is a rare epilepsy syndrome that confers focal seizures that often secondarily generalize.91 The seizures can begin at any age, but usually start in the second or third decade of life. As the syndrome’s name suggests, the majority of the patients (64%) have focal seizures that begin with an auditory component. Some have simple auditory hallucinations, such as ringing that changes in volume,92 or a “buzzing, or humming like a machine.” 93 In other patients, auditory hallucinations are formed, such as voices or singing.92 Some patients have visual, autonomic, psychic or vertiginous focal seizures. In some pedigrees, the seizures are accompanied by a sensory aphasia with or without auditory hallucinations.94 In most patients, the seizures are infrequent (only several times per year before starting medication) and can usually be controlled with anticonvulsant drugs.
Interictal EEG abnormalities, if present, are usually left temporal spike and sharp wave complexes. ADEAF patients do not have causative brain lesions on conventional MRI imaging. However, one diffusion tensor imaging study suggested that some patients may have subtle malformations in the left temporal cortex.95 Finally, although their neurological exams are normal, functional imaging and magnetoencephalography studies of members of four ADEAF families were consistent with impaired language processing.96
At the time of its first description, ADEAF was linked to a 10-cM region on chromosome 10q with a 71% penetrance.97 Linkage studies in another family narrowed the region to approximately 3 cM.93 Kalachikov et al. sequenced all exons and intron/exon junctions from one affected patient form three different ADEAF pedigrees and then genotyped all family members from five different ADEAF pedigrees.98 They found that all affected family members and obligate carriers possessed mutations (four frameshift/intron retention truncation mutations and one missense mutation) in the leucine-rich, glioma-inactivated 1 gene (LGI1). Some unaffected family members also possessed the mutations, a finding consistent with the reduced penetrance found in the gene linkage studies. There are now 27 LGI1 mutations associated with ADEAF (Table 84.4).
Less than 50% of ADEAF families and less than 2% of sporadic ADEAF patients have LGI1 mutations. Recently, a new ADEAF locus was found in a large Brazilian family. The DNA from 11 affected and 14 unaffected family and performed genotyping found linkage to region 19q13.11–q13.31 with incomplete penetrance.99

Autosomal dominant leukodystrophy (ADLD) is an adult-onset demyelinating disorder that has recently shown to be caused by duplications of the nuclear lamina gene, lamin B1. This chapter attempts to collate and summarize the current knowledge about the disease and the clinical, pathological, and radiological presentations of the different ADLD families described till date. It also provides an overview of the molecular genetics underlying the disease and the mechanisms that may cause the duplication mutation event. ADLD is the first disease that has ever been linked to lamin B1 mutations and it expands the pathological role of the nuclear lamia to include disorders of the brain. The chapter also speculates on the different mechanisms that may link an important and ubiquitous structure like the nuclear lamina with the complex and cell-specific functions of myelin formation and maintenance. Understanding these mechanisms may not only prove helpful in understanding ADLD pathology but can also help in identifying new pathways that may be involved in myelin biology that can have implications for common demyelinating diseases like multiple sclerosis.

These conditions are characterized by hereditary peripheral retinal neovascularization with vitreoretinal traction. We discuss here hereditary conditions without primary vitreal degeneration, unaccompanied by systemic clinical manifestations, and incontinentia pigmenti, sickle-cell retinopathy, and other peripheral proliferative retinopathies that have been reviewed previously.151
ADNIV is an apparently rare condition characterized by cataract, cystoid macular edema, peripheral retinal scarring and pigmentation, peripheral arteriolar closure, and neovascularization of the peripheral retina at the ora serrata.152 Young adults are asymptomatic, but have vitreous cell and selective b-wave loss on the ERG. Neovascularization may result in tractional retinal detachment. About half of patients will develop rubeosis or neovascular glaucoma by age 60 or older. The gene was localized to chromosome 11q13.153 Vitreous bands and sheets are not observed and the vitreous was not optically empty, enabling differentiation from classical vitreoretinal degenerations such as Stickler, Wagner, and SVD. The peripheral retinal vessels are initially normal in ADNIV, and dragging of the macular vessels as seen in familial exudative vitreoretinopathy is absent.
Gitter and colleagues described a family with 7 of 15 members affected with early cataract, uveitis, prominence of the vitreous base, lattice degeneration, and severe peripheral retinal neovascularization leading to vitreous hemorrhage and retinal detachment. The syndrome appears similar to ADNIV, but after reviewing photographs of the ADNIV family, the condition was deemed to be distinct.154

Autosomal dominant vitreochoroidopathy (ADVIRC) is characterized by vitreous liquefaction with or without peripheral vitreal condensations. Peripheral pigmentary changes typically occur at the equatorial region with a discrete posterior boundary associated with diffuse retinal vascular leakage, cystoid macular edema, and early-onset cataract. The peripheral pigmented band extends from the ora serrata to the equator for 360° of the retina. Other ocular associations are vitreous cells and condensation, puntate opacities in the retina, choroidal atrophy, and early nuclear sclerosis. The ERG responses are normal although the electroculogram (EOG) has been shown to be abnormal in ADVIRC.

Autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia (ADH) is caused by apparent gain-of-function mutations in the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) gene (Abifadel et al., 2003). PCSK9 is secreted by hepatocytes and appears to downregulate the density of functional LDL receptors in hepatocytes by promoting endosomal degradation rather than recycling of the receptor (Horton et al., 2007). Interestingly, loss-of-function mutations in this gene appear to cause low LDL-C levels (see below). The discovery of the molecular basis of ADH ultimately led to the identification of PCSK9 as a novel therapeutic target.

In frame fibrillin-1 gene deletion in autosomal dominant Weill-Marchesani syndrome
In frame fibrillin-1 gene deletion in autosomal dominant Weill-Marchesani syndrome
Weill-Marchesani syndrome (WMS) is a connective tissue disorder characterised by short stature, brachydactyly, joint stiffness, and characteristic eye anomalies including microspherophakia, ectopia of the lenses, severe myopia, and glaucoma. Both autosomal recessive (AR) and autosomal dominant (AD) modes of inheritance have been described and a gene for AR WMS has recently been mapped to chromosome 19p13.3-p13.2. Here, we report on the exclusion of chromosome 19p13.3-p13.2 in a large AD WMS family and show that, despite clinical homogeneity, AD and AR WMS are genetically heterogeneous entities. Because two AD WMS families were consistent with linkage to chromosome 15q21.1, the fibrillin-1 gene was sequenced and a 24 nt in frame deletion within a latent transforming growth factor-β1 binding protein (LTBP) motif of the fibrillin-1 gene was found in a AD WMS family (exon 41, 5074_5097del). This in frame deletion cosegregated with the disease and was not found in 186 controls. This study strongly suggests that AD WMS and Marfan syndrome are allelic conditions at the fibrillin-1 locus and adds to the remarkable clinical heterogeneity of type I fibrillinopathies.
Weill-Marchesani syndrome (WMS, MIM 277600) is a rare connective tissue disorder first described by Weill1 in 1932, and further delineated by Marchesani.2 The patients present with short stature, short and stubby hands and feet, and may have stiff joints and thickened skin, especially in the hands. Most patients have been described by ophthalmologists, as complications usually consist of dislocation of microspherophakic lenses, which causes severe myopia, acute and/or chronic glaucoma, and cataract. Despite clinical homogeneity, two modes of inheritance have been reported, autosomal dominant (AD)3–5 and autosomal recessive inheritance (AR) with occasional brachymorphism in heterozygotes.6 Clinical similarities with Marfan syndrome7 prompted Wirtz et al5 to consider fibrillin-1 as a candidate gene for WMS. Interestingly, two large AD WMS families were consistent with linkage to chromosome 15q21.1 where the fibrillin-1 gene had been previously mapped,5 but this localisation had been excluded in AR WMS.8
We have recently reported on the homozygosity mapping of an AR WMS gene to chromosome 19p13.3-p13.2 in two large families of Lebanese and Saudi origin.9 Here, we show that AD WMS does not map to the same locus and report on a 24 nt in frame deletion of the fibrillin-1 gene in a large AD WMS family. This study supports genetic heterogeneity of AD and AR WMS and first ascribes the dominant form of the disease to a fibrillin-1 gene mutation on chromosome 15q21.1. It appears therefore that AD WMS and Marfan syndrome are allelic conditions at the fibrillin-1 locus.
The members of the two AD WMS families reported by Wirtz et al5 were included in this study. Family 1 has previously been reported by Gorlin et al3 in 1974. Affected subjects, aged 2 to 60 years, fulfilled the inclusion criteria, namely short stature, brachydactyly, limitation of joint movements, microspherophakia and/or dislocated lenses, severe myopia, and glaucoma. In addition, two patients had carpal tunnel syndrome. Immunohistochemical staining of skin sections performed in family 1 showed an apparent decrease in fibrillin staining.5
DNA extraction and microsatellite analyses were performed as previously described10 and primers were chosen from the Genethon map11 with an average spacing of 3 cM.9 Results were analysed by manual haplotype analysis under the assumption of autosomal dominant inheritance, with full penetrance and a 0 value for the phenocopy rate. Screening for fibrillin-1 gene mutations was performed on leucocyte DNA by directly sequencing both strands of PCR products. Exons 1 to 65 of the fibrillin-1 gene and their flanking intronic sequences were amplified as previously described.12 One affected subject in each family was chosen for sequencing and other affected subjects were sequenced when necessary.
Fig 1 shows that family 1 was consistent with linkage to both chromosomes 19p13.2-p13.3 and 15q21.1, but linkage of the disease gene to chromosome 19p13.2-p13.3 was clearly excluded in family 2, as the six affected subjects did not share a common haplotype in this region.
Pedigree of two AD WMS families, haplotypes on chromosome 19p13.2–p13-3, and genotype at the fibrillin-1 gene on chromosome 15q21.1. WT: wild type, del: 5074_5097del in exon 41 of the fibrillin-1 gene on chromosome 15q21.1.
Sequence analysis of the fibrillin-1 gene in family 1 showed heterozygosity for a 24 nucleotide in frame deletion in exon 41 (5074_5097del, fig 1). Eight amino acids were deleted (R-S-L-C-Y-R-N-Y). This deletion was confirmed on both strands and was also detectable when amplification products were separated on 1% agarose, 3% NuSieve gels and stained with ethidium bromide. The deletion was found in all affected subjects and cosegregated with the disease in family 1 (fig 1). Conversely, this deletion was not found in 186 controls of European origin (372 chromosomes). No deleterious mutation has been found so far in family 2.
Here, we report on a 24 nt in frame deletion of the fibrillin-1 gene in a large AD WMS family. The deleterious nature of this deletion is very likely for several reasons. This deletion cosegregates with the disease and has never been found in previous publications or controls in this study. This deletion involves one of the seven latent transforming growth factor-β1 binding protein (LTBP) motifs in a conserved region of the protein. Each motif contains eight cysteine residues and interrupts multiple stretches of calcium binding epidermal growth factor-like (cbEGF) modules. LTBP domains normally display a globular structure and comprise six antiparallel beta strands and two alp
