Early-onset Dementia v1.16 GLA Zornitza Stark Marked gene: GLA as ready
Early-onset Dementia v1.16 GLA Zornitza Stark Gene: gla has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Early-onset Dementia v1.16 GLA Zornitza Stark Classified gene: GLA as Green List (high evidence)
Early-onset Dementia v1.16 GLA Zornitza Stark Gene: gla has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Early-onset Dementia v1.15 GLA Lynn Tan gene: GLA was added
gene: GLA was added to Early-onset Dementia. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: GLA was set to X-LINKED: hemizygous mutation in males, monoallelic mutations in females may cause disease (may be less severe, later onset than males)
Publications for gene: GLA were set to 36927868; 38254927; 9213072; 23949010; 32510623
Phenotypes for gene: GLA were set to Fabry disease MONDO:0010526
Review for gene: GLA was set to GREEN
gene: GLA was marked as current diagnostic
Added comment: PMID 36927868 (2023)
Index patient with GLA T410A (α-Gal A activity 32%) developed dementia and died of stroke in her 70s

47M biochemically confirmed Fabry’s with predominant manifestation being a dementing illness

PMID: 23949010 (2014)
Systematic review on cognitive dysfunction in Fabry's disease: patients with Fabry disease may be impaired in: executive functioning assessed by two standardised tests, the Stroop test and the Trail Making test part B, information processing speed and attention. Five case studies documenting neuropsychological impairment also described.

Prospective cohort study to describe cognitive function changes in Fabry's over a year. Eighty‐one patients were included of which 76 patients (94%) completed both assessments (age: 44 years, 34% men, 75% classical phenotype). Four patients (5.3%) showed reliable decrease in cognitive functioning, two women and one man with classical disease and one woman with non‐classical disease (age range: 19‐41 years). Changes were from excellent to good/average and from good to average. None had a history of stroke or extensive WMLs. Follow‐up CESD scores were similar in two patients (+0 and +1) and increased in two others (+6, +11).

"This vasculopathy, along with elevating the risk of cerebral ischemia and stroke, is likely the pathophysiological basis for cognitive impairments in FD patients. Nevertheless, there is currently insufficient evidence indicating a direct association between neuropsychological findings and alterations in morphology in the CNS of FD patients as determined by brain imaging techniques such as magnetic resonance imaging."
