ALS

Neurodegenerative disorder – loss of cortical, brain stem and spinal motor neurons

Causes muscle weakness, paralysis and death

Disease onset between 40 to 70 years old

Affects 1-3 people per 100,000

Inherited or familial ALS (

fALS

) occurs in 5-10% of patients

Sporadic ALS (

sALS

) in other 90-95%

Large overlap in affected genes between

fALS

and

sALS

We found two heterozygous recessive missense mutations in the gene

CACNA1H

Slide3

T-type Channels

Three isoforms Ca

v

3.1,

3.2

and 3.3Low voltage activated transient calcium channelsNeuronal T-type channel key functions:Neuronal membrane oscillationsLowering threshold for action potential firing in both PNS and CNSTwo mutations P1210L and ΔI153

Δ

I153

P1210L

Slide4

Loss of conductance in ΔI153 mutant in recombinant conditions

Slide5

Loss of function of ΔI153 mutant in native conditions

Slide6

Reduced expression of Cav3.2

Slide7

Dominant-negative effect of ΔI153 mutant

Slide8

Key points

P1210L mutation caused a 32% reduction in maximal conductance

Δ

I153 mutation caused complete loss of Ca

v

3.2 activityΔI153 mutation caused a 78% reduction in expression and is not present in the plasma membraneΔI153 causes a dominant-negative effect on the WT channel when expressed in trans
