Abstract
Increasing genetic evidence supports the hypothesis that variants in the annexin All gene (ANXA11) contribute to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis pathogenesis. Therefore, we studied the clinical aspects of sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients carrying ANXA11 variants. We also implemented functional experiments to verify the pathogenicity of the hotspot variants associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-frontotemporal dementia. Korean patients diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (n = 882) underwent genetic evaluations through next-generation sequencing, which identified 16 ANXA11 variants in 26 patients. We analysed their clinical features, such as the age of onset, progression rate, initial symptoms and cognitive status. To evaluate the functional significance of the ANXA11 variants in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-frontotemporal dementia pathology, we additionally utilized patient fibroblasts carrying frontotemporal dementia-linked ANXA11 variants (p.P36R and p.D4OG) to perform a series of in vitro studies, including calcium imaging, stress granule dynamics and protein translation. The frequency of the pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants of ANXA11 was 0.3% and the frequency of variants classified as variants of unknown significance was 2.6%. The patients with variants in the low-complexity domain presented unique clinical features, including late-onset, a high prevalence of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-frontotemporal dementia, a fast initial progression rate and a high tendency for bulbar-onset compared with patients carrying variants in the C-terminal repeated annexin homology domains. In addition, functional studies using amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-frontotemporal dementia patient fibroblasts revealed that the ANXA11 variants p.P36R and p.D4OG impaired intracellular calcium homeostasis, stress granule disassembly and protein translation. This study suggests that the clinical manifestations of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-frontotemporal dementia spectrum patients with ANXA11 variants could be distinctively characterized depending upon the location of the variant.
