Abstract
Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS) is a rare genetic early-onset progressive encephalopathy with variable clinical manifestations. The IFIH1 mutation has been confirmed to be responsible for type I interferon production and activation of the Janus kinase signaling pathway. We herein stress neurological observations and neuroimaging findings in a severe case report of an infant with AGS type 7 due to an IFIH1 mutation who was diagnosed in the first month of life. We also review neurological characteristics of IFIH1 mutations through recent literature.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
