脊髓性肌萎缩伴进行性肌阵挛性癫痫 (spinal muscular atrophy with progressive myoclonic epilepsy,SMA-PME),有时也称Jankovic-Rivera综合征 (Jankovic–Rivera syndrome),是一种非常罕见的神经退行性疾病 ,症状包括缓慢进行性肌肉萎缩,主要影响远侧肌肉,伴有失神经支配 和肌阵挛 發作 [ 1] 。科学文献仅载有12个家族患有SMA-PME[ 2] 。
SMA-PME与ASAH1基因 的外显子 2錯義突變 (c.125C→T)或刪除 有关,为常染色体隐性遗传[ 3] 。SMA-PME与一种名为法伯脂肪肉芽肿病的溶酶体疾病密切相关[ 4] 。与许多遗传紊乱疾病一样,SMA-PME尚无治愈方法。
美国研究者Joseph Jankovic和Victor M. Rivera在1979年首次描述了这种病症[ 5] 。
ASAH1基因编码溶酶体中的酸性神经酰胺酶。溶酶体分解酸性神经酰胺酶,然后利用脂肪酸成分[ 6] 产生髓磷脂。髓磷脂围绕在机体神经周围,有助于信号在神经细胞间的传递,并提高传输速率[ 7] 。SMA-PME患者体内神经酰胺酶功能减弱三分之二[ 2] 。酸性神经酰胺酶分解缺乏导致髓磷脂缺乏,进而导致神经细胞损伤。
