摘要

Abstract Non-dystrophic myotonias (NDM) are rare skeletal muscle channelopathies, mainly linked to two voltage-gated ion channel genes, CLCN1 and SCN4A. The aim of this study is to identify the clinical and genetic features of patients with NDM in Japan. We collected a Japanese nationwide case series of patients with clinical diagnosis of NDM (1999–2021). Among 71 out of 88 pedigrees, using Sanger and next-generation sequencing targeting both CLCN1 and SCN4A genes, variants classified as pathogenic/likely pathogenic/unknown significance were detected from CLCN1 (31 probands), SCN4A (36 probands), or both genes (4 probands), and 11 of them were novel. Pedigrees carrying mono-allelic CLCN1 variants were more commonly seen than that with bi-allelic/double variants (24:7). Compared to patients with CLCN1 variants, patients harboring SCN4A variants showed younger onset age (5.64?±?4.70?years vs. 9.23?±?5.21?years), fewer warm-up phenomenon, but more paramyotonia, hyperCKemia, transient muscle weakness, and cold-induced myotonia. Haplotype analysis verified founder effects of the hot spot variants in both CLCN1 (p.T539A) and SCN4A (p.T1313M). This study reveals variants in CLCN1 and SCN4A from 80.7 of our case series, extending genetic spectrum of NDM, and would further our understanding of clinical similarity/diversity between CLCN1- and SCN4A-related NDM, as well as the genetic racial differences.
