Optineurin mutations in patients with sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in China
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to assess the frequency of optineurin (OPTN) mutation in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) patients from mainland China, as well as to characterize the relationship between OPTN mutation and clinical phenotypes. We examined the coding region of OPTN in 511 unrelated Chinese sporadic ALS (SALS) subjects and 204 healthy controls using a PCR direct sequencing strategy. Nine OPTN variants were identified, of which four were novel missense mutations: c.407C > T (p.A136V), c.1184A > G (p.K395R), c.1352T > C (p.I451T), and c.1546G > C (p.E516Q) (all heterozygous). The remaining five variants were already present in single nucleotide polymorphism databases. Patients with OPTN mutations were characterized by spinal onset, although they showed differences in disease progression. In conclusion, this study provides a genetic epidemiological characterization of OPTN mutations in Chinese patients, and our results are consistent with the proposition that such mutations are common in Asian populations.

Mitochondrial abnormalities, together with OPTN-positive inclusions and de novo OPTN mutations found in sALS, are suggestive of attenuated mitophagy.
“Such mitochondrial abnormalities, together with observations of OPTN-positive inclusions and de novo OPTN mutations found in sALS [286–289], are suggestive of attenuated mitophagy.”

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.
