" /> Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease;

Symbol : NIID;

CISMeF acronym : NIID;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Description : Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) is characterized pathologically by eosinophilic intranuclear inclusions in neurons of the peripheral, central, and autonomic nervous systems associated with varying degrees of neuronal loss. Symptoms usually begin in childhood but adult-onset cases have also been described. Clinical expression is variable, depending on the sites of maximal neuronal loss, but is usually a multisystem degenerative process of the central nervous system or a visceral neuropathy (summary by Kimber et al., 1998). See the neuronal form of intestinal pseudoobstruction (243180).;

Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;

Molecular basis : Caused by trinucleotide repeat expansion (GGC)n in the NOTCH2 N-terminal-like C gene (NOTCH2NLC, 618025.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Eosinophilic intranuclear inclusions in various cells, including adipocytes, muscle cells, Schwann cells, sweat gland cells, and vascular smooth muscle cells; Inclusions stain positively for ubiquitin and p62 (SQSTM1);

Prefixed ID : #603472;
