<h2>Description</h2>
|

|

<section><div class="mp-content"><p>Isolated lissencephaly sequence (ILS) is a condition that affects brain development before birth. Normally, the cells that make up the exterior of the brain (cerebral cortex) are well-organized, multi-layered, and arranged into many folds and grooves (gyri). In people with ILS, the cells of the cerebral cortex are disorganized, and the brain surface is abnormally smooth with an absence (agyria) or reduction (pachygyria) of folds and grooves. In most cases, these abnormalities impair brain growth, causing the brain to be smaller than normal (<a class="image-modal" data-alt="Side view photo of a man showing a small cranium and a sloping forehead" data-caption="Decreased size of the cranium is accompanied by marked posterior sloping of the forehead." data-credit="Elements of Morphology, National Human Genome Research Institute" data-filepath="images/PX0001G1_PRESENTATION.jpeg" data-imgtype="genetics" data-pix="PX0001G1" data-sourceurl="https://elementsofmorphology.nih.gov/index.cgi?tid=8ae2118220c1308f" data-title="Microcephaly" href="https://medlineplus.gov/images/PX0001G1_PRESENTATION.jpeg" id="PX0001G1_1" title="Show image">microcephaly<img alt="" aria-hidden="true" class="image-modal-icon" src="https://medlineplus.gov/css/img/icon_camera_small.png"/></a>). This underdevelopment of the brain causes severe intellectual disability, delayed development, and recurrent seizures (epilepsy) in individuals with ILS.</p><p>More than 90 percent of individuals with ILS develop epilepsy, often within the first year of life. Up to 80 percent of infants with ILS have a type of seizure called infantile spasms, these seizures can be severe enough to cause brain dysfunction (epileptic encephalopathy). After the first months of life, most children with ILS develop <a class="image-modal" data-alt="An illustration of brain activity during a partial seizure and a generalized seizure. A partial seizure affects the activity in a region of the brain, while a generalized seizure affects the activity in the whole brain." data-caption="" data-credit="Alila Medical Media/Shutterstock.com" data-filepath="images/PX0000OG_PRESENTATION.jpeg" data-imgtype="genetics" data-pix="PX0000OG" data-sourceurl="" data-title="Brain activity during partial seizure and generalized seizure" href="https://medlineplus.gov/images/PX0000OG_PRESENTATION.jpeg" id="PX0000OG_2" title="Show image">a variety of seizure types<img alt="" aria-hidden="true" class="image-modal-icon" src="https://medlineplus.gov/css/img/icon_camera_small.png"/></a>, including persisting infantile spasms, short periods of loss of consciousness (absence seizures); sudden episodes of weak muscle tone (drop attacks); rapid, uncontrolled muscle jerks (myoclonic seizures); and episodes of muscle rigidity, convulsions, and loss of consciousness (tonic-clonic seizures).</p><p>Infants with ILS may have poor muscle tone (hypotonia) and difficulty feeding, which leads to poor growth overall. Hypotonia also affects the muscles used for breathing, which often causes breathing problems that can lead to a life-threatening bacterial lung infection known as aspiration pneumonia. Children with ILS often develop muscle stiffness (spasticity) in their arms and legs and an abnormal side-to-side curvature of the spine (<a class="image-modal" data-alt="Comparison of a normal spine, which is straight, with a spine with scoliosis, which curves side-to-side." data-caption="" data-credit="Alila Medical Media/Shutterstock.com" data-filepath="images/PX0000T0_PRESENTATION.jpeg" data-imgtype="genetics" data-pix="PX0000T0" data-sourceurl="" data-title="Normal spine and spine with scoliosis" href="https://medlineplus.gov/images/PX0000T0_PRESENTATION.jpeg" id="PX0000T0_3" title="Show image">scoliosis<img alt="" aria-hidden="true" class="image-modal-icon" src="https://medlineplus.gov/css/img/icon_camera_small.png"/></a>). Rarely, the muscle stiffness will progress to paralysis (spastic paraplegia). Individuals with ILS cannot walk and rarely crawl. Most children with ILS do not develop communication skills.</p></div>

These genes provide instructions for making proteins that are involved in the movement (migration) of nerve cells (<a class="image-modal" data-alt="Illustration of a nerve cell with a nucleus and cell body surrounded by multiple branching dendrites. A long axon, which extends from one dendrite, is covered by multiple myelin sheaths with uncovered regions between myelin sheaths known as nodes of Ranvier. At the end of the axon are axon terminals and nerve synapse. The direction of the nerve impulse goes from the dendrites down the axon and through the synapse." data-caption="Illustration of a nerve cell with a nucleus and cell body surrounded by multiple branching dendrites.

Neuronal migration is dependent on cell structures called microtubules. Microtubules are rigid, hollow fibers that make up the cell's structural framework (the cytoskeleton). Microtubules form scaffolding within the cell that elongates in a specific direction, altering the cytoskeleton and moving the neuron. The protein produced from the <i>TUBA1A</i> gene is a component of microtubules. The proteins produced from the <i>DCX</i> and <i>PAFAH1B1</i> genes promote neuronal migration by interacting with microtubules.</p><p>Mutations in any of these three genes impair the function of microtubules and the normal migration of neurons during fetal development.

This impairment of brain development leads to the smooth brain appearance and the resulting neurological problems characteristic of ILS.</p><p>Some individuals with ILS do not have an identified mutation in any of these three genes; the cause of the condition in these individuals may be unidentified mutations in other genes that affect neuronal migration or other unknown factors.</p></div>

<h2>Inheritance</h2>

<section><div class="mp- mp-content"><p>The inheritance pattern of ILS depends on the gene involved.</p><p>When ILS is caused by mutations in the <i><a data-pid="18277" href="https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/gene/pafah1b1/">PAFAH1B1</a></i> or <i><a data-pid="19075" href="https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/gene/tuba1a/">TUBA1A</a></i> gene, it is inherited in an <a class="image-modal" data-alt="Neither parent has the mutated gene.

Most cases result from new mutations in the gene and occur in people with no history of the disorder in their family.</p><p>When mutations in the <i><a data-pid="17831" href="https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/gene/dcx/">DCX</a></i> gene cause ILS, it is inherited in an X-linked pattern. A condition is considered X-linked if the mutated gene that causes the disorder is located on the X chromosome, one of the two sex chromosomes in each cell. In males (who have only one X chromosome), one altered copy of the <i>DCX</i> gene in each cell is sufficient to cause the condition. In females, who have two copies of the X chromosome, one altered copy of the <i>DCX</i> gene in each cell can lead to a less severe condition in females called <a data-pid="16927" href="https://medlineplus.gov/genetics/condition/subcortical-band-heterotopia/">subcortical band heterotopia</a>, or may cause no symptoms at all. A characteristic of X-linked inheritance is that fathers cannot pass X-linked traits to their sons.</p></div>
