Genotype-phenotype correlations of adult-onset PLA2G6-associated Neurodegeneration: case series and literature review

Phospholipase A2 group VI (PLA2G6) mutations associated with neurodegeneration (PLAN) manifest as heterogeneous neurodegenerative disorders with variable ages of onset. The genotype-phenotype correlation is not well-established. We

We showed that adult-onset PLAN could present as purely parkinsonism features, without brain iron accumulation, particularly patients with homozygous p.D331Y mutations. Compound heterozygous mutations, including heterozygous p.D331Y, produced heterogeneous phenotypes, without obvious levodopa responsiveness.
