    Kurzfassung: There is growing evidence that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 can affect the CNS. However, data on white matter and cognitive sequelae at the 1-year follow-up are lacking. Therefore, we explored these characteristics in this study. We investigated 22 recovered coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients and 21 matched healthy controls. Diffusion tensor imaging, diffusion kurtosis imaging and neurite orientation dispersion and density imaging were performed to identify white matter changes, and the subscales of the Wechsler Intelligence scale were used to assess cognitive function. Correlations between diffusion metrics, cognitive function and other clinical characteristics were then examined. We also conducted subgroup analysis based on patient admission to the intensive care unit. The corona radiata, corpus callosum and superior longitudinal fasciculus had a lower volume fraction of intracellular water in the recovered COVID-19 group than in the healthy control group. Patients who had been admitted to the intensive care unit had lower fractional anisotropy in the body of the corpus callosum than those who had not. Compared with the healthy controls, the recovered COVID-19 patients demonstrated no significant decline in cognitive function. White matter tended to present with fewer abnormalities for shorter hospital stays and longer follow-up times. Lower axonal density was detected in clinically recovered COVID-19 patients after 1 year. Patients who had been admitted to the intensive care unit had slightly more white matter abnormalities. No significant decline in cognitive function was found in recovered COVID-19 patients. The duration of hospital stay may be a predictor for white matter changes at the 1-year follow-up.

    Kurzfassung: Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is a hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy exhibiting great clinical and genetic heterogeneity. Here, the identification of two heterozygous missense mutations in the C1orf194 gene at 1p21.2-p13.2 with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease are reported. Specifically, the p.I122N mutation was the cause of an intermediate form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, and the p.K28I missense mutation predominately led to the demyelinating form. Functional studies demonstrated that the p.K28I variant significantly reduced expression of the protein, but the p.I122N variant increased. In addition, the p.I122N mutant protein exhibited the aggregation in neuroblastoma cell lines and the patient’s peroneal nerve. Either gain-of-function or partial loss-of-function mutations to C1ORF194 can specify different causal mechanisms responsible for Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease with a wide range of clinical severity. Moreover, a knock-in mouse model confirmed that the C1orf194 missense mutation p.I121N led to impairments in motor and neuromuscular functions, and aberrant myelination and axonal phenotypes. The loss of normal C1ORF194 protein altered intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis and upregulated Ca2+ handling regulatory proteins. These findings describe a novel protein with vital functions in peripheral nervous systems and broaden the causes of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, which open new avenues for the diagnosis and treatment of related neuropathies.

    Kurzfassung: Imaging markers sensitive to neurodegeneration in the substantia nigra are critically needed for future disease-modifying trials. Previous studies have demonstrated the utility of posterior substantia nigra free water as a marker of progression in Parkinson’s disease. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that free water is elevated in the posterior substantia nigra of idiopathic REM sleep behaviour disorder, which is considered a prodromal stage of synucleinopathy. We applied free-water imaging to 32 healthy control subjects, 34 patients with idiopathic REM sleep behaviour disorder and 38 patients with Parkinson’s disease. Eighteen healthy control subjects and 22 patients with idiopathic REM sleep behaviour disorder were followed up and completed longitudinal free-water imaging. Free-water values in the substantia nigra were calculated for each individual and compared among groups. We tested the associations between posterior substantia nigra free water and uptake of striatal dopamine transporter in idiopathic REM sleep behaviour disorder. Free-water values in the posterior substantia nigra were significantly higher in the patients with idiopathic REM sleep behaviour disorder patients than in the healthy control subjects, but were significantly lower in patients with idiopathic REM sleep behaviour disorder than in patients with Parkinson’s disease. In addition, we observed significantly negative associations between posterior substantia nigra free-water values and dopamine transporter striatal binding ratios in the idiopathic REM sleep behaviour disorder patients. Longitudinal free-water imaging analyses were conducted with a linear mixed-effects model, and showed a significant Group × Time interaction in posterior substantia nigra, identifying increased mean free-water values in posterior substantia nigra of idiopathic REM sleep behaviour disorder over time. These results demonstrate that free water in the posterior substantia nigra is a valid imaging marker of neurodegeneration in idiopathic REM sleep behaviour disorder, which has the potential to be used as an indicator in disease-modifying trials.
