Abstract
Uvod: Neuronska ceroidna lipofuscinoza tip 2 (CLN2) predstavlja rijedak autosomno recesivan, neurodegenerativni poremećaj uzrokovan mutacijom u CLN2 genu, što rezultira nedostatkom aktivnosti TPP1 enzima. Prvi simptomi obično se javljaju između druge i četvrte godine života te uključuju epileptičke napadaje, usporen razvoj govora i motoričke poremećaje. Ovaj rad naglašava važnost ranog otkrivanja i prepoznavanja bolesti kako bi se što prije započela terapija i poboljšala kvaliteta života pacijenata. Ispitanici i metode: U istraživanje je bilo uključeno šestero pacijenata (pet djevojčica i jedan dječak) s medijanom dobi pojave prvih simptoma od 3 godine. Analizirane su klinička slika, aktivnost TPP1 enzima, genetske mutacije u CLN2 genu te EEG i MR snimke mozga. Četvero djece primalo je enzimsku nadomjesnu terapiju cerliponazom alfa. Rezultati: Svi pacijenti pokazali su smanjenu aktivnost TPP1 enzima i različite složene heterozigotne mutacije u CLN2 genu, pri čemu je najčešća bila mutacija c.509-1G>C. EEG snimke s niskofrekventnim IFS-om rezultirale su pojavom FPO-a, što se manifestira kao registracija šiljaka i šiljka-val kompleksa generalizirano i/ili u okcipitalnim odvodima. MR snimke mozga otkrile su različite strukturne abnormalnosti poput malformacija stražnje lubanjske jame, hipoplazije vermisa te promjena u bijeloj tvari. Pacijenti koji su primali terapiju imali su sporiji gubitak funkcija prema adaptiranoj Hamburg skali u usporedbi s neliječenim pacijentima. Zaključak: Rano započinjanje terapije cerliponazom alfa kod pacijenata s CLN2 bolesti, iako ne liječi bolest, značajno usporava njezinu progresiju, posebice u motoričkim i jezičnim funkcijama. Ovi rezultati naglašavaju važnost rane dijagnoze i primjene terapije radi poboljšanja kvalitete života djece oboljele od CLN2 bolesti i njihovih obitelji.
Abstract (english)
Introduction: Neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis type 2 (CLN2) is a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations in the CLN2 gene, resulting in reduced TPP1 enzyme activity. Initial symptoms typically appear between 2 and 4 years of age, including epileptic seizures, language delay, and motor regression. This study highlights the importance of early diagnosis and treatment initiation to improve the patients’ quality of life. Participants and Methods: This study included six patients (five girls and one boy) with a median age of symptom onset at three years. Clinical features, TPP1 enzyme activity, genetic mutations in the CLN2 gene, as well as EEG and MRI brain scans, were analyzed. Four children received enzyme replacement therapy with cerliponase alfa. Results: All patients exhibited reduced TPP1 enzyme activity and various complex heterozygous mutations in the CLN2 gene, with the most common mutation being c.509-1G>C. EEG findings, obtained through low-frequency photostimulation, showed the photoparoxysmal response characterized by spike and slow-wave complexes in occipital leads and/or generalized patterns. MRI scans revealed structural brain abnormalities, including posterior fossa malformations, hypoplastic vermis, and white matter changes. Patients receiving therapy showed slower functional decline on the adapted Hamburg Scale compared to untreated patients. Conclusion: Early initiation of cerliponase alfa therapy in CLN2 patients, while not curative, significantly delays disease progression, particularly in motor and language functions. These findings underscore the importance of early diagnosis and therapeutic intervention in improving the quality of life in children affected by CLN2 disease and their families.
