Background: Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) presents with heterogeneous neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS). These symptoms often begin prior to the onset of FTD, and progress throughout the prodromal stages of FTD. Particularly, familial FTD due to autosomal dominant genetic mutations might display mutation-specific NPS profiles.

Mosaic Analysis with Double Markers (MADM) represents a mouse genetic approach coupling differential fluorescent labeling to genetic manipulations in dividing cells and their lineages. MADM uniquely enables the generation and visualization of individual control or homozygous mutant cells in a heterozygous genetic environment. Among its diverse applications, MADM has been used to dissect cell-autonomous gene functions important for cortical development and neural development in general.

We describe a set of monozygotic twins with GRIN2B-related neurodevelopmental disorder (GRIN2B-ND) who exhibited distinct clinical and imaging characteristics due to a de novo heterozygous pathogenic variant in the GRIN2B gene (c.2453T>C, p.Met818Thr).

Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are a diverse and heterogeneous group of inherited neurodegenerative disorders marked by progressive ataxia and cerebellar degeneration. This case report details an 11-year-old Indian boy with childhood-onset ataxia and severe sensorineural hearing loss, a rarely reported concomitance in pediatric neurology. Genetic analysis identified a unique heterozygous 3' splice site variant in the PNPT1 gene (c.

Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare but treatable inherited neurometabolic disorder that can lead to severe sequelae if left untreated. Chenodeoxycholic acid is a safe and effective treatment for CTX. Early diagnosis is essential to improve patient outcomes.
