Variants in KIF1A are associated with hereditary spastic paraplegia (SPG30), which can manifest in both pure and complex forms. We describe a Japanese family with a novel KIF1A variant presenting with a complex form of SPG30. Patient 1, a 69-year-old woman, experienced progressive gait disturbance due to spastic paraparesis and cerebellar atrophy, and intellectual disability.

A 16-year-old adolescent girl presented with progressive walking imbalance, uncoordination of her limbs, impaired proprioceptive sensation distal to her wrists and ankles, and sensorineural hearing loss. Her evaluation revealed diffuse cerebellar atrophy, a demyelinating neuropathy, and hypergonadotropic hypogonadism. In this article, we present a systematic approach to a patient with early-onset ataxia, cerebellar atrophy, and demyelinating neuropathy.

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.

: Paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNSs) are rare conditions characterized by immune-mediated pathogenesis, frequently associated with the presence of a neoplasm. Although a single antineuronal antibody mediates a specific syndrome, atypical manifestations mediated by the same antibody have been described. : The aim of this study was to report on an atypical case of PNS with dual positivity for anti-GAD65 and anti-CRMP5/CV2 antibodies, simultaneously characterized by cognitive decline associated with progressive ataxia and parkinsonism.

Introduction: The ataxia telangiectasia mutated kinase (ATM) is key in coordinating the DDR signaling network essential for responding to double-strand breaks (DSBs). Several ATM inhibitors are being investigated for potential anticancer treatment in clinical trials.
Areas Covered: This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of patents and patent applications since 2003, with a particular focus on the structural properties, activity and efficacy of the claimed ATM kinase small-molecule inhibitors.
