We performed a clinical evaluation and genetic analysis in a five-generation family with co-occurrence of PED and epilepsy (<italic>n</italic> = 39), suggesting that this combination represents a clinical entity. Based on a whole genome linkage analysis we screened <italic>SLC2A1</italic>, encoding the glucose transporter of the blood-brain-barrier, GLUT1 and identified heterozygous missense and frameshift mutations segregating in this and three other nuclear families with a similar phenotype. PED was characterized by choreoathetosis, dystonia or both, affecting mainly the legs. Predominant epileptic seizure types were primary generalized. A median CSF/blood glucose ratio of 0.52 (normal <bold>></bold>0.60) in the patients and a reduced glucose uptake by mutated transporters compared with the wild-type as determined in Xenopus oocytes confirmed a pathogenic role of these mutations. Functional imaging studies implicated alterations in glucose metabolism in the corticostriate pathways in the pathophysiology of PED and in the frontal lobe cortex in the pathophysiology of epileptic seizures. Three patients were successfully treated with a ketogenic diet. In conclusion, co-occurring PED and epilepsy can be due to autosomal dominant heterozygous <italic>SLC2A1</italic> mutations, expanding the phenotypic spectrum associated with GLUT1 deficiency and providing a potential new treatment option for this clinical syndrome.</p></div></front><back><div1 type="bibliography"><listBibl><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct><biblStruct></biblStruct></listBibl></div1></back></TEI><pmc article-type="research-article" xml:lang="EN"><pmc-dir>properties open_access</pmc-dir>

with epilepsy, but the genetic causes and pathophysiological mechanisms are still poorly understood. We performed a clinical evaluation and genetic analysis in a five-generation family with co-occurrence of PED and epilepsy (<italic>n</italic> = 39), suggesting that this combination represents a clinical entity. Based on a whole genome linkage analysis we screened <italic>SLC2A1</italic>, encoding the glucose transporter of the blood-brain-barrier, GLUT1 and identified heterozygous missense and frameshift mutations segregating in this and three other nuclear families with a similar phenotype. PED was characterized by choreoathetosis, dystonia or both, affecting mainly the legs. Predominant epileptic seizure types were primary generalized. A median CSF/blood glucose ratio of 0.52 (normal <bold>></bold>0.60) in the patients and a reduced glucose uptake by mutated transporters compared with the wild-type as determined in Xenopus oocytes confirmed a pathogenic role of these mutations. Functional imaging studies implicated alterations in glucose metabolism in the corticostriate pathways in the pathophysiology of PED and in the frontal lobe cortex in the pathophysiology of epileptic seizures. Three patients were successfully treated with a ketogenic diet. In conclusion, co-occurring PED and epilepsy can be due to autosomal dominant heterozygous <italic>SLC2A1</italic> mutations, expanding the phenotypic spectrum associated with GLUT1 deficiency and providing a potential new treatment option for this clinical syndrome.</p></abstract><kwd-group><kwd>GLUT1</kwd><kwd>paroxysmal dyskinesia</kwd><kwd>exercise-induced</kwd><kwd>GLUT1 deficiency syndrome</kwd><kwd>ketogenic diet</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body><sec sec-type="intro"><title>Introduction</title><p>Paroxysmal dyskinesias are characterized by transient abnormal, involuntary movement, such as choreoathetosis and dystonia, but unlike the epilepsies they do not evolve into tonic–clonic seizures, and are not associated with epileptiform discharges and alterations in consciousness (Berkovic, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B3">2000</xref>). Broadly, the paroxysmal dyskinesias can be subdivided into four subgroups based upon precipitating factors: paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD), paroxysmal non-kinesigenic dyskinesia (PNKD), paroxysmal exercise-induced dyskinesia (PED) and paroxysmal hypnogenic dyskinesia (PHD) (Demirkiran and Jankovic, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B9">1995</xref>). The association between paroxysmal dyskinesias and other neurological disorders, like epilepsy or ataxia, has occasionally been observed within one individual or family (Jankovic and Demirkiran, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B19">2001</xref>).</p><p>Molecular genetic analyses of multiplex families resulted in the identification of a few loci and lent further support to the hypothesis of a common genetic cause for paroxysmal dyskinesia/epilepsy/ataxia. Pure PKD was mapped to the peri-centromeric region of chromosome 16 (Kato <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B21">2006</xref>), but the causative gene is unknown (Kikuchi <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B22">2007</xref>); several families with infantile convulsions and PKD (Szepetowski <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B44">1997</xref>; Lee <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B31">1998</xref>; Swoboda <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B43">2000</xref>; Kato <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B21">2006</xref>) and a family with autosomal recessive rolandic epilepsy, PED and writer's cramp also map to the same chromosome 16 region (Guerrini <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B15">1999</xref>); pure PNKD maps to chromosome 2q33–q35, and the myofibrillogenesis regulator 1 (<italic>MR-1</italic>) gene was identified as causative (Rainier <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B41">2004</xref>). A family with paroxysmal dyskinesia/ataxia precipitated by exercise, emotional stress, sleep deprivation and alcohol consumption was mapped to chromosome 1p (Auburger <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B2">1996</xref>). A family with PNKD and generalized epilepsy mapped to chromosome 10q22, in which the α-subunit of a calcium-sensitive potassium channel (<italic>KCNMA1</italic>) is mutated (Du <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B12">2005</xref>). A third defective gene, the <italic>MCT8</italic> gene, is known to cause an X-linked form of PKD with severe global retardation (Brockmann <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B6">2005</xref>).</p><p>PED is a rare form of paroxysmal dyskinesia with approximately 20 sporadic patients and 9 PED families reported (Lance, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B29">1977</xref>; Plant <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B40">1984</xref>; Nardocci <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B36">1989</xref>; Wali, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B46">1992</xref>; Demirkiran and Jankovic, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B9">1995</xref>; Auburger <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B2">1996</xref>; Bhatia <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B4">1997</xref>; Kluge <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B28">1998</xref>; Neville <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B37">1998</xref>; Guerrini <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B15">1999</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B16">2002</xref>; Nagamitsu <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B35">1999</xref>; Margari <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B32">2000</xref>; Munchau <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B34">2000</xref>; Bing <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B5">2005</xref>; Kamm <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B20">2007</xref>). The co-occurrence of PED and epilepsy has been occasionally noted (Plant <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B40">1984</xref>; Bhatia <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B4">1997</xref>; Neville <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B37">1998</xref>; Guerrini <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B15">1999</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B16">2002</xref>; Margari <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B32">2000</xref>; Munchau <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B34">2000</xref>; Bing <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B5">2005</xref>; Kamm <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B20">2007</xref>). Here, we describe the clinical, biochemical, imaging, electrophysiological and therapeutic aspects of a syndrome characterized by co-occurring PED and epilepsy. We elucidate its molecular pathophysiology consisting of a decreased transport of glucose across the blood-brain-barrier (BBB) due to mutations in the facilitative glucose transporter type 1 (GLUT1).</p></sec><sec sec-type="materials|methods"><title>Material and Methods</title><sec><title>Ascertainment and determination of phenotypes</title><p>We identified 56 members of a five-generation Belgian family (family A) with PED and epilepsy (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Fig. 1</xref>). Thirty-nine family members participated in the genetic study. We interviewed and performed a clinical neurological examination in 36 of them. For the other three individuals (II.2, III.4 and III.21), also carrying a mutation, we only obtained clinical information from their relatives and medical reports, when available. Three unrelated nuclear families of Belgian (families B and C) and Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry (family D), were subsequently evaluated. Available interictal and ictal EEGs, and video-EEG recordings were reviewed. Patients were diagnosed with epilepsy when experiencing recurrent generalized tonic–clonic, absences, myoclonic (D.01) or complex partial seizures. We also reviewed available brain MRI scans, and performed 4- to 8-h-fasting serum glucose and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) glucose concentration studies. We used the following scale to score frequency of PED and epileptic seizures: 5: daily, 4: weekly, 3: monthly, 2: yearly, 1: remission >1 year, 0: no history of epilepsy or PED. The ethical committees of University Hospital Gasthuisberg and University of Antwerp approved this study and a written informed consent was obtained from all participants or their legal representative.

Additional markers in the candidate region between D1S233 and D1S405 were selected from the Marshfield comprehensive genetic map (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://research.marshfieldclinic.org/genetics/">http://research.marshfieldclinic.org/genetics/</ext-link>) and the ABI Prism Linkage Mapping Set MD-10 and MD-5 (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) for the fine mapping of the region.</p><p>Two-point logarithms of odds (LOD) scores were calculated using MLINK from the FASTLINK computer package (version 5.1) (Cottingham <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B8">1993</xref>). The affected status of individuals was defined before linkage analysis. All patients with PED and/or epilepsy were considered affected. LOD-scores were calculated under the assumption of a dominant inheritance pattern with 95% penetrance and a disease gene frequency of 0.001. The estimation of the penetrance of the epileptic trait was based on the pedigree of the entire family. For each marker, the number of alleles was set at the observed number of alleles in the pedigree and we assumed these alleles to be equifrequent.</p></sec><sec><title>Mutation analysis</title><p>Mutation analysis of all exons and intron–exon boundaries of <italic>SLC2A1</italic> was performed on genomic DNA of eight family members of family A and all available members of families B–D by PCR sequencing.

Automated variation (SNPs and indels) discovery was performed using novoSNP (Weckx <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B50">2005</xref>). Subsequently, we used pyrosequencing (Alderborn <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B1">2000</xref>) to confirm the presence of the mutation in all patients and to exclude it in non-affected family members and a panel of 184 ethnically matched control individuals.</p></sec><sec><title>Functional analysis</title><p>The cDNA of <italic>SLC2A1</italic> in the expression vector pSP65 was kindly provided by Dr Mike Mueckler (Mueckler <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B33">1985</xref>). The QuickChange site-directed mutagenesis kit (Stratagene, LaJolla, Canada) was used to introduce the three missense mutations into the <italic>SLC2A1</italic> cDNA, resulting in p.S95I, p.V140M, p.N317T amino acid exchanges, respectively. Primer sequences are available upon request. All mutations were verified by direct sequencing.</p><p>All further procedures about the expression and functional characterization of the mutations compared with wild-type (WT) transporters in <italic>Xenopus</italic> oocytes, including the preparation of cRNA and oocytes, glucose uptake measurements in form of zero-trans influx experiments with 3-O-methyl-<sc>d</sc>-glucose, kinetic analysis to obtain <italic>K</italic><sub>m</sub> and <italic>V</italic><sub>max</sub>, Western blots and immunocytochemistry to study protein stability and surface expression, as well as Rb<sup>+</sup> flux experiments are described in detail elsewhere (Weber <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B49">2008</xref>). For the glucose uptake and Rb<sup>+</sup> flux studies, three experiments using 10 oocytes each for every glucose concentration (eight for Rb<sup>+</sup>) were averaged for both mutant and WT transporters on each experimental day. The procedures for all four clones were done in parallel.</p></sec><sec><title>Functional imaging studies</title><sec><title>Subjects</title><p>Fourteen patients with PED and epilepsy [8 F, 6 M; median age: 25 years (range: 13–52)] carrying a GLUT1 mutation were investigated using 2-[<sup>18</sup>F]Fluoro-2-deoxy-<sc>d</sc>-glucose (FDG) PET. The metabolic results for the patient group were compared with FDG PET data from 20 age- and sex-matched healthy volunteers (11 F, 9 M; age range 21–49 years) that were obtained using the same acquisition protocol and scanner. The healthy volunteers had no history of neurological or psychiatric disorders and had normal findings on T<sub>1</sub>- and T<sub>2</sub>-weighted brain MRI. The patients had CSF and serum glucose studies immediately after the FDG PET scan, but not the control subjects.</p></sec></sec><sec><title>PET</title><p>PET metabolic data acquisition was performed according to the standard clinical protocol (Van Laere <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B45">2006</xref>). FDG data were spatially normalized to Montreal Neurological Institute (MNI) space using statistical parametric mapping (SPM) (version 2; Wellcome Department of Imaging Neuroscience) with the standard settings. Normalized data were smoothed with an isotropic Gaussian kernel of 10 mm. A voxel-based group comparison of patient group versus controls was performed after proportional scaling the images (to compare the relative FDG uptake) and an initial statistical threshold p<sub>uncorrected</sub> < 0.001 for peak height was used. Only clusters with a corrected p<sub>cluster</sub> < 0.05 were considered significant. Furthermore, voxel-based correlations were evaluated between relative FDG uptake and CSF glucose, CSF/blood glucose ratio and age in the patient group and epileptic seizure frequency score and PED frequency score at time of FDG PET scanning in the patient and control group combined.</p><p>One patient had an ictal SPECT scan during a PED episode.

No other markers yielded LOD scores above 1.8. Segregation analysis identified a disease haplotype spanning a 19.7 cM region between markers D1S233 and D1S2652, comprising about 377 known genes, including <italic>SLC2A1</italic> encoding the GLUT1 glucose transporter. PCR sequencing of <italic>SLC2A1</italic> revealed a heterozygous missense mutation, p.S95I, in exon 4 due to a T-to-A and a C-to-T transition at two neighbouring nucleotides c.[283T > A;284C > T] (numbering according to cDNA reference sequence NM_006516.1, numbering started at A of the translation initiation codon, ATG). This mutation was identified in 22 of the 39 family members, co-segregated with the disease phenotype (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Fig. 1</xref>) and was not present in 184 unrelated ethnically matched control individuals. We subsequently identified different mutations in <italic>SLC2A1</italic> in three non-related nuclear families with comparable phenotypes: a frameshift mutation (c.654dupC; p.N219QfsX18) in patient B.01 and missense mutations in patient C.01 (c.418G > A; p.V140M) and patient D.01 (c.950A > C; p.N317T). The mutations in B.01 and C.01 were not observed in their parents nor in healthy control individuals.</p><p>The four mutations (p.S95I, p.V140M, p.N219QfsX18 and p.N317T) were localized in the cytosolic loop connecting transmembrane segments 2 and 3, in transmembrane segment 4, in the large cytosolic loop connecting transmembrane segments 6 and 7 and in transmembrane segment 8, respectively (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">Fig. 2</xref>). The frameshift mutation (c.654dupC) predicts a premature stop codon at position 236 in the protein sequence, resulting in a truncated protein. Alignment of homologue protein sequences of different species with ClustalW (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/clustalw/">http://www.ebi.ac.uk/clustalw/</ext-link>) showed that the serine (position 95), valine (position 140) and asparagine (position 317) residues are highly conserved (alignments, see <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://brain.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/full/awn113/DC1">Supplementary data</ext-link>), supporting that these mutations are most likely pathogenic.

Three mutation carriers of family A (II.2, III.4 and IV.5) were asymptomatic, demonstrating reduced penetrance. Two individuals (IV.2; IV.19) who did not carry the mutation had late-posttraumatic epilepsy and febrile seizures, respectively.

Median age at onset was 8 years (range: 3–30). In all studied patients involvement of the legs was present (100%), involving exclusively the legs in 10 (55%), legs more than arms in 6 (33%) and also the face in two of these 6 (11%). One patient reported that arms and legs were equally affected, and one that arms were affected more frequently than legs. The latter patient worked as a cleaner and reported PED involving the arms precipitated by exertion of the arms during cleaning. Nine patients (50%) reported a consistent lateralization, e.g. patient A.III.6 reported onset of the movement disorder always in the left leg. Nine patients (50%) reported involuntary movements suggestive of choreoathetosis alone, three (17%) of dystonia and six of both (33%). The patients described the choreoathetosis as uncontrollable rapid movements, and the dystonia as stiffening and cramps. PED made walking impossible, and caused falls in some of the patients. Some patients were able to stand despite the PED, or walk with difficulty, but most patients had to sit down until the movements subsided. Median duration of the PED was 15 min (range: <1 min to 3 h). Precipitating factors were exertion (<italic>n</italic> = 16, 89%), particularly prolonged brisk walking, stress (<italic>n</italic> = 7, 39%), starvation (<italic>n</italic> = 5, 28%) and sleep deprivation (<italic>n</italic> = 1, 6%). Alleviating factors were eating, preferably glucose or sugar (<italic>n</italic> = 6, 33%), and rest (<italic>n</italic> = 7, 39%). Patient A.III.19 remained symptom-free for several years by avoiding long walks. Patient A.III.8 remained symptom-free for several decades by changing his diet and having a sugar-containing snack every 2–3 h. C.01 always carried a bottle of sugar-containing beverage, which reduced the PED episodes. The PED at its worst occurred on average weekly (ranging between patients from several attacks daily to yearly) and at the latest assessment on average yearly (ranging between patients from weekly to remission of symptoms). Most patients reported that PED and epilepsy became less severe when they grew older. Some patients reported autonomic symptoms, such as sweating, pallor, hyperventilation, a rising epigastric sensation, psychic symptoms, such as anxiety and sensory symptoms, such as paraesthesiae, a few minutes before the onset of the dyskinesias. The treating neurologists often interpreted the PED as epileptic myoclonic jerks as part of juvenile myoclonic epilepsy.

Seven patients underwent video-EEG monitoring, including the proband of family A (IV.12) as well as patients A.III.17, A.III.20, A.III.24, A.IV.11, B.01 and C.01). During the video-EEG recordings, patient A.III.24 had two episodes of paroxysmal choreoathetosis lasting around 10 and 20 min each, and involving mainly both legs. The movements were characterized by sudden kicking and bending movements of the legs, with twisting and trusting movements of the pelvis (see video; A.III.24 Ictal SPECT during PED, in <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://brain.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/full/awn113/DC1">supplementary data</ext-link>). Ictal EEGs did not show epileptic activity. We recorded a nocturnal generalized tonic–clonic seizure on video-EEG in patient A.III.17, which started with a 1 s burst of polyspikes on EEG, followed by generalized slow sharp waves admixed with spikes, which became gradually obscured by muscle artefacts. In the proband A.IV.12, we recorded some mild episodes of gait difficulties during prolonged walking, during which she complained of pain and shakiness in the left leg, without objective signs and no ictal EEG changes. We recorded one of the episodes of B.01 during video-EEG recording, which was precipitated by prolonged walking. Her gait became slightly broad based, she stumbled and her legs appeared to stiffen. She was unable to walk unassisted. She recovered within 10 min. C.01 underwent several prolonged video-EEG recordings that did not show epileptic activity.

There was no improvement, and patient A.III.24 reported that frequency and intensity of PED attacks had worsened.</p></sec><sec><title>Ketogenic diet</title><p>Since a ketogenic diet is reportedly effective in GLUT1 DS (De Vivo <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B11">1991</xref>; Leary <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B30">2003</xref>; Klepper <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B23">2004</xref>), this was initiated in patients A.III.17, A.IV.11 and A.IV.12. The diet consisted of a strict 3 : 1 proportion of fat [3] to protein and carbohydrates [1], fat being supplied in the form of medium-chain triglyceride mix (Liquigen®, from SHS Nutricia, Liverpool, UK; <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.shs-nutrition.com/shs-product/liquigen">http://www.shs-nutrition.com/shs-product/liquigen</ext-link>). In addition, all patients received <sc>l</sc>-carnitine (50 mg/kg) and all necessary vitamin and trace element supplements. The establishment and follow-up of ketosis was checked twice daily with urine dip sticks. Patient A.IV.12, who demonstrated 4–5 episodes daily of PED (cramping of the left leg, inability to walk >50–100 m without pausing or dystonia) before starting on the diet, showed immediate (same day) response when reaching ketosis. She had complete resolution of PED and was able to walk and even run long distances for the first time in her life. As soon as ketosis was lost, e.g. due to diet non-compliance, symptoms recurred. Patients A.III.17 and A.IV.11 have been free of epileptic seizures, since the start of the ketogenic diet (now 2 months—previous frequency of seizures once weekly in patient A.IV.11 and once monthly in patient A.III.17). None of the other 21 mutation carriers of family A were willing to start a ketogenic diet, because in their opinion the advantages did not outweigh the disadvantages of the disease and diet itself.</p></sec></sec></sec><sec sec-type="discussion"><title>Discussion</title><sec><title>Genetics and molecular pathophysiology of PED and epilepsy</title><p>Our study indicates that both PED without epilepsy and co-occurrence of PED with epilepsy can be caused by mutations in <italic>SLC2A1</italic>, which encodes GLUT1, the main transporter for <sc>d</sc>-glucose across the BBB. To date, we have screened four PED families with or without epilepsy and detected novel <italic>SLC2A1</italic>/<italic>GLUT1</italic> mutations (three missense and one frameshift) in all of them. In a parallel investigation, Weber and colleagues screened another five PED families and identified GLUT1 mutations in three of them (Weber <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B49">2008</xref>). Both studies suggest that mutations in GLUT1 may be the most common cause in this condition. While our identified frameshift mutation predicts a complete loss of function and haploinsufficiency, the functional investigations in oocytes showed that all three missense mutations also lead to a marked reduction of glucose uptake. The mutations affect the intrinsic ability of GLUT1 to transport glucose across the cell membrane by reducing the maximum transport velocity, <italic>V</italic><sub>max</sub>, whereas <italic>K</italic><sub>m</sub>, protein stability and insertion in the surface membrane did not show major alterations. Hence, attacks of PED can be caused by a reduced glucose transport across the BBB, possibly when the energy demand of the brain overcomes its supply after prolonged periods of exercise.</p></sec><sec><title>Clinical aspects, differentiation from classical GLUT1-DS and genotype–phenotype correlations</title><p>The characteristic clinical features in our patients were PED and epilepsy. PED consisted of choreoathetosis and dystonia affecting mainly the legs and was typically precipitated by prolonged exertion. Epileptic seizures in these patients appeared mainly as primary generalized, namely as generalized tonic–clonic or absences, with a much earlier onset than classical absence seizures. One patient had myoclonic seizures and two patients also had partial seizures. Interestingly, the choreoathetotic PEDs were often misdiagnosed as epileptic myoclonic seizures as part of juvenile myoclonic epilepsy. The young age at onset of the epilepsy around 2 years in combination with a family history of epilepsy and PED are important clinical clues to suggest the correct diagnosis of this treatable disease. We conclude that childhood-onset intractable exercise-induced dyskinesias, sometimes with co-occurring early-onset generalized epileptic seizures, normal neurological examination and MRI and a moderately low CSF glucose concentration are the key features of this recognizable clinical entity caused by GLUT1 mutations.</p><p>Heterozygous mutations in <italic>SLC2A1</italic> are also known to cause a rare, severe syndrome first described by De Vivo and colleagues in isolated patients, the GLUT1 DS (OMIM #606777) (De Vivo <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B11">1991</xref>; Klepper and Leiendecker, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B24">2007</xref>). Most were demonstrated to be total loss-of-function mutations while other mutations caused a significant decrease in transport activity (Klepper <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B25">2001<italic>a</italic></xref>; Iserovich <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B18">2002</xref>), as observed for our mutations. It is characterized by intractable infantile epileptic seizures, acquired microcephaly, hypotonia, ataxia, spasticity, developmental delay and a persistent reduced CSF/serum glucose concentration ratio. Exercise-induced dyskinesias, normal interictal neurological examination (except one, B.01), the absence of microcephaly, a different non-nutrition-dependent form of generalized epilepsy and the later age at onset differentiate our patients from patients with classical GLUT1 DS. Other important differences between our patients and the classical GLUT1 DS patients were the less pronounced decrease in fasting CSF glucose to serum glucose concentration ratio (severe GLUT1 DS: median 0.33; PED and epilepsy: median 0.52 and normal: >0.60) and apparent improvement in symptomatology over time in our large family A. Most patients with classical GLUT1 DS tended to be so severely affected that they were not able to live independently, to marry and have children, and hence transmit the disease.</p><p>Some patients with an atypical clinical presentation and GLUT1 mutations were reported in the literature: three without infantile seizures, one with choreoathetosis and one with a prominent movement disorder (Overweg-Plandsoen <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B38">2003</xref>; Wang <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B48">2005</xref>; Friedman <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B14">2006</xref>). In the latter two patients, the movement disorder was characterized by childhood-onset paroxysmal episodes of blinking and abnormal head and eye movements without definite seizures in one patient and by intermittent facial and hand dystonia and mild choreatiform movements of the legs at rest in the other patient (Wang <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B48">2005</xref>; Friedman <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B14">2006</xref>). Also, three nuclear families with GLUT1 DS were reported to date, in which the phenotype between family members varied from intractable epileptic seizures with moderate mental retardation to controllable epileptic seizures with mild mental retardation (Brockmann <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B7">2001</xref>; Ho <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B17">2001</xref>; Klepper <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B27">2001<italic>b</italic></xref>). These milder variants of GLUT1 DS, also proposed by Wang and colleagues (Wang <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B48">2005</xref>), have not been well documented, but in none of all GLUT1 DS patients described in the literature so far, the complex movement disorder has ever been described as exercise-induced dyskinesias with periods lasting from less than a minute to several hours. Also generalized forms of epilepsy as observed in our patients have not been described (Klepper and Leiendecker, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B24">2007</xref>). These patients can thus be clearly differentiated from PED with epilepsy described here.</p><p>Although missense mutations in the cytosolic loop connecting transmembrane segments 2 and 3, in transmembrane segment 4 and in transmembrane segment 8 have been described in GLUT1 DS patients, the specific amino acid residues mutated in our patients have not been related to the pathophysiology of classical or atypical GLUT1 DS (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">Fig. 2</xref>). It appears that complete loss-of-function mutations rather cause classical GLUT1 DS, but other genetic or environmental factors have to play an important role in the expression of the clinical phenotype as well, since we also identified a loss-of-function mutation in one of our PED patients (B.01) and since we could not find an obvious difference in the uptake studies to the published point mutations causing classical GLUT1 DS (Brockmann <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B7">2001</xref>; Klepper <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B25">2001a</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B26">2005</xref>; Wang <italic>et al</italic>. <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B47">2003</xref>; Wong <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B51">2007</xref>). However, the S95I mutant yielded the mildest phenotype with cases of non-penetrance (A.II.2, A.III.4 and A.IV.5; who all passed the range of onset age for PED and epilepsy of this family) and also had the mildest deficit in glucose transport <italic>in vitro</italic>. As described for classical and atypical GLUT1 DS, no clear correlation was observed between the CSF glucose concentration and the type of mutation in our study.</p><p>Finally, in one patient (C.03) we did not observe an <italic>SLC2A1</italic> mutation despite his clinical phenotype and mildly reduced CSF/serum glucose ratio. However, this patient has an affected son (C.01) with an <italic>SLC2A1</italic> mutation that could be explained by a mosaicism.</p></sec><sec><title>Functional imaging and systemic pathophysiology of PED and epilepsy</title><p>Relative FDG uptake in our patients with PED and epilepsy was increased in the putamen, midtemporal cortex bilaterally and right lingual brain area, and decreased bilaterally in thalamus, anterior cingulate cortex, midfrontal and superior frontal cortex, when compared with a cohort of matched controls. These findings are principally comparable with the ‘metabolic footprint of GLUT1DS on the brain’ described by Pascual and colleagues (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B39">2002</xref>). However, a detailed comparison with this previous study, is difficult since Pascual and colleagues used visual analysis of individual PET scans and provided single PET sections of 14 patients without indication of scaling, whereas we performed a more objective voxel-based statistical analysis of grouped data in comparison to normal controls.</p><p>Our method allowed us to perform exploratory correlation studies enabling new hypotheses. We found a positive correlation between relative FDG uptake and the PED frequency score in the left putamen and a negative correlation in the left superior frontal cortex and bilateral anterior cingulate cortex. In addition, the ictal SPECT analysis revealed hyperperfusion in the same regions during an episode of PED. These findings suggest that disordered glucose metabolism in the corticostriate pathways plays a role in the pathophysiology of PED. Furthermore, we found a negative correlation between seizure frequency and relative glucose uptake in the midfrontal and cingulate cortex bilaterally. These observations implicate a disordered glucose metabolism in the frontal lobes in the pathophysiology of the epileptic seizures in our patients, which is consistent with our EEG findings of generalized epileptic discharges with anterior predominance. It should be pointed out that both Pascual's and our study used non-quantitative, radioactivity distribution and not quantitative, regional cerebral glucose utilization (rCMRglc) PET data. This method allowed us to study the pattern of relative FDG uptake (Signorini <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B42">1999</xref>), but not global cerebral changes, which may be present in persons with GLUT1 mutations. This is a shortcoming of the present study, which warrants further investigation.</p></sec><sec><title>Treatment</title><p>PED and epilepsy is associated with a low CSF glucose concentration in the presence of normoglycaemia. Although several family members reported that glucose and sugar alleviated symptoms, carbohydrate-rich diets have been reported to be unsuccessful in classical GLUT1 DS (Wang <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B48">2005</xref>). A ketogenic diet (high fat, low carbohydrate) has been effective in patients with classical GLUT1 DS for management of intractable seizures and complex motor disorders, but had little effect on the cognitive impairment (De Vivo <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B11">1991</xref>; Leary <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B30">2003</xref>; Klepper <italic>et al</italic>., <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="B23">2004</xref>). Ketone bodies derived from fatty acid oxidation in the liver can penetrate the BBB by means of another transporter and can thus provide an alternative fuel for brain metabolism. Our initial experiences with the ketogenic diet in two adolescents and one adult are encouraging. Since the ketogenic diet has been used mainly in children and long-term effects in adults have not been established, careful follow-up of the patients is indicated.</p></sec></sec><sec><title>Electronic database information</title><p>Accession numbers and URLs for data presented in this article are as follows:</p><p>Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Omim/">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Omim/</ext-link></p><p>VIB Genetic Service Facility, <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.vibgeneticservicefacility.be">http://www.vibgeneticservicefacility.be</ext-link></p><p>NCBI, <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov">http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov</ext-link></p><p>ClustalW, <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/clustalw/">http://www.ebi.ac.uk/clustalw/</ext-link></p><p>Predictprotein, <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.predictprotein.org">http://www.predictprotein.org</ext-link></p></sec><sec><title>Supplementary material</title><p><ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://brain.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/full/awn113/DC1">Supplementary material</ext-link> is available at <italic>Brain</italic> online.</p></sec><sec sec-type="supplementary-material"><title>Supplementary Material</title><supplementary-material id="PMC_1" content-type="local-data"><caption><title>[Supplementary Data]</title></caption><media mimetype="text" mime-subtype="html" xlink:href="awn113_index.html"></media><media xlink:role="associated-file" mimetype="text" mime-subtype="plain" xlink:href="awn113_A.III.24_ictal_SPECT_during_PED.wmv"></media><media xlink:role="associated-file" mimetype="application" mime-subtype="msword" xlink:href="awn113_Supplementary_data-Alignmen_tof_GLUT1.doc"></media><media xlink:role="associated-file" mimetype="application" mime-subtype="msword" xlink:href="awn113_Supplementary_data-LOD_score_table.doc"></media></supplementary-material></sec></body><back><ack><title>Acknowledgements</title><p>The authors are grateful to the family members for their kind cooperation and participation in this study.
