Abstract

Hereditary diffuse leukoencephalopathy with spheroids (HDLS) in humans is a rare autosomal dominant disease characterized by giant neuroaxonal swellings (spheroids) within the CNS white matter. Symptoms are variable and can include personality and behavioural changes. Patients with this disease have mutations in the protein kinase domain of the colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) which is a tyrosine kinase receptor essential for microglia development. We investigated the effects of these mutations on Csf1r signalling using a factor dependent cell line. Corresponding mutant forms of murine Csf1r were expressed on the cell surface at normal levels, and bound CSF1, but were not able to sustain cell proliferation. Since Csf1r signaling requires receptor dimerization initiated by CSF1 binding, the data suggest a mechanism for phenotypic dominance of the mutant allele in HDLS.

  • Autosomal dominant mutations in CSF1R are the major genetic cause of HDLS.

    “It has been discovered that autosomal dominant mutations in CSF1R, resulting in partial loss of function in CSF-1R signaling, are the major genetic cause of hereditary diffuse leukoencephalopathy with spheroids (HDLS) [22, 40, 44].”

    From Loss of homeostatic microglial phenotype in CSF1R-related Leukoencephalopathy (2020) · cites this paper as [40]

    The Abstract (page not provided) describes HDLS as autosomal dominant, reports CSF1R mutations in multiple affected families, and identifies loss of function in the mutations tested. It does not establish that CSF1R mutations are the major genetic cause of HDLS; no comparison with other genetic causes is reported. (LLM, conf=0.86)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • HDLS is related to a loss of function of CSF-1R.

    “Several lines of evidence support our observation that HDLS is related to a loss of function of CSF-1R [40].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
