In infants and young children affected by Alexander Disease, associated symptoms and findings include a failure to grow and gain weight at the expected rate (failure to thrive); delays in the development of certain physical, mental, and behavioral skills that are typically acquired at particular stages (psychomotor retardation); and progressive enlargement of the head (macrocephaly). Additional features typically include sudden episodes of uncontrolled electrical activity in the brain (seizures); abnormally increased muscle stiffness and restriction of movement (spasticity); and progressive neurological deterioration. In some cases, there is hydrocephalus. In most cases, Alexander Disease appears to occur randomly for unknown reasons (sporadically), with no family history of the disease. In an extremely small number of cases, it is thought that the disorder may have affected more than one family member.

Scientists led by University of Wisconsin-Madison researcher Able Messing have pinpointed the gene responsible for a rare and devastating childhood brain disorder called Alexander disease, solving a 50-year-old mystery regarding its cause. Their work is reported in the January 3 issue of Nature Genetics. Musing's team discovered the gene after a genetic analysis of 13 cases of the disease. Because of the rarity of the disease, it took nearly two years to assemble enough cases from international sources to complete the study.

    Extractions: Tell a friend Alexander disease: A slowly progressive and ultimately fatal brain disorder that most commonly occurs in children. The infantile form of the disease is characterized by megalencephaly (an abnormally large head), seizures, spasticity and developmental retardation. It leads to death usually within the first decade. Patients with the juvenile and adult forms of Alexander disease typically experience ataxia and spasticity and a more slowly progressive course. The classic hallmark of all forms of Alexander disease is the presence of Rosenthal fibers, abnormal inclusions in astrocytes that contain the intermediate filament protein GFAP. Mutations in the gene for GFAP (glial fibrillary acidic protein) cause Alexander disease, the first known example of a primary genetic disorder of astrocytes, one of the major cell types in the vertebrate CNS. The disease was first described by W. Stewart Alexander, a New Zealand pathologist, in 1949. Rosenthal fibers are homogeneous masses which form elongated tapered rods scattered throughout the cortex and white matter of the brain. Rosenthal fibers are located in the astrocytes. Demyelination (loss of myelin, the insulation around nerves) is also a prominent feature of the disease. Alexander disease is classified as one of the leukodystrophies, the diseases of the white matter of the brain.

    Extractions: A rare inherited disorder of myelin formation. Alexander disease is a progressive leukencephalopathy whose hallmark is the widespread accumulation of cytoplasmic inclusions called Rosenthal fibers. The fibers contain GLIAL FIBRILLARY ACIDIC PROTEIN in association with ALPHA-CRYSTALLIN B CHAIN. Rosenthal fibers are found predominantly in ASTROCYTES located in the subependymal, subpial, and periventricular areas of the BRAIN.
