BackgroundAutosomal-dominant striatal degeneration (ADSD) is a rare neurodegenerative movement disorder caused by mutations in the Phosphodiesterase 8B (PDE8B) gene.ObjectiveTo summarize the clinical and imaging features of a Chinese ADSD family and determine whether mutations inPDE8Bare associated with Parkinson's disease (PD) or Parkinsonism.MethodsClinical, imaging and genetic findings in a Chinese ADSD family are reported. Rare, potentially pathogenic variants inPDE8Bwere searched in whole-exome sequencing datasets from 1714 PD or parkinsonism patients and 1039 controls.ResultsAn ADSD diagnosis was confirmed by a nonsense mutation inPDE8B(p.E102X) in a patient and a presymptomatic carrier. Clinically, the patient exhibited progressive parkinsonism without tremor and ataxia phenotype. Neuroimaging showed an inhomogeneous increased signal in the patient's striatum on T1-weighted images but a decreased signal in the presymptomatic carrier. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) showed a disturbance in the white matter fiber distribution, especially between the lentiform nucleus and caudate nucleus, which was more prominent in the patient than in the presymptomatic carrier. Within the 1714 patients, threePDE8Bmissense variants were identified that were unlikely to be the cause of the parkinsonism phenotype according to the functional prediction and mutation types reported in ADSD.ConclusionsFor the first time, we described the typical ataxia phenotype in ADSD. A loss of white matter fiber integrity was shown on DTI scanning. No causativePDE8Bmutation was discovered in our cohort of PD or Parkinsonism patients.
