Vitamin B5 Monotherapy Improves Symptoms in a 7-Year-Old Girl With TANGO2 Deficiency Disorder.
TANGO2 deficiency disorder is often underdiagnosed and lacks an optimal treatment strategy. A 7-year-old Chinese girl presented with epilepsy, developmental delay, neuroregression, and episodes of dyskinesia. Additionally, she lapsed into a comatose state following her the last generalized tonic-clonic seizure. Trio whole-exome sequencing revealed compound heterozygous variants of the TANGO2 gene. Eventually, her clinical signs and symptoms significantly improved following treatment with vitamin B5. TANGO2 deficiency disorder is a severe neurodegenerative condition that can be diagnosed via trio whole-exome sequencing. This report highlights the potential therapeutic effects of vitamin B5 against this disease and suggests that high-dose vitamin B5 administration may be safe for the treatment of TANGO2 deficiency disorder.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Medical Genetics - Part A (AJMG) gives you continuous coverage of all biological and medical aspects of genetic disorders and birth defects, as well as in-depth documentation of phenotype analysis within the current context of genotype/phenotype correlations. In addition to Part A , AJMG also publishes two other parts:
Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics , covering experimental and clinical investigations of the genetic mechanisms underlying neurologic and psychiatric disorders.
Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics , guest-edited collections of thematic reviews of topical interest to the readership of AJMG .
