الوصف: Hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type 1 (HSAN1/HSN1) is a peripheral neuropathy most commonly associated with pathogenic variants in the serine palmitoyltransferase complex (SPTLC1, SPTLC2) genes, which are responsible for sphingolipid biosynthesis. Recent reports have shown that some HSAN1 patients also develop macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel2), a retinal neurodegeneration with an enigmatic pathogenesis and complex heritability. Here, we report a novel association of a SPTLC2 c.529A>G p.(Asn177Asp) variant with MacTel2 in a single member of a family that otherwise has multiple members afflicted with HSAN1. We provide correlative data to suggest that the variable penetrance of the HSAN1/MacTel2-overlap phenotype in the proband may be explained by levels of certain deoxyceramide species, which are aberrant intermediates of sphingolipid metabolism. We provide detailed retinal imaging of the proband and his HSAN1+/MacTel2- brothers and suggest mechanisms by which deoxyceramide levels may induce retinal degeneration. This is the first report of HSAN1 vs. HSAN1/MacTel2 overlap patients to comprehensively profile sphingolipid intermediates. The biochemical data here may help shed light on the pathoetiology and molecular mechanisms of MacTel2.
