Abstract
Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by a 17p11.2 deletion or a pathogenic variant of the RAI1 gene, which lies within the 17p11.2 region. Various psychiatric and neurological disorders have been reported in SMS, with most literature focusing on children and adolescents. To provide an overview of the current knowledge on this topic in adults with SMS, we performed a comprehensive scoping review of the relevant literature. Our findings suggest that many manifestations that are common in childhood persist into adulthood. Neuropsychiatric manifestations in adults with SMS include intellectual disability, autism spectrum- and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder-related features, self-injurious and physical aggressive behaviors, sleep-wake disorders, and seizures. Findings of this review may facilitate optimization of management strategies in adults with SMS, and may guide future studies exploring late-onset psychiatric and neurological comorbidities in SMS.

Pentanucleotide Repeat Insertions in RAI1 Cause Benign Adult Familial Myoclonic Epilepsy Type 8. Mov Disord 2024; 39:164-172.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Benign adult familial myoclonic epilepsy (BAFME) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by cortical tremors and seizures. Six types of BAFME, all caused by pentanucleotide repeat expansions in different genes, have been reported. However, several other BAFME cases remain with no molecular diagnosis. OBJECTIVES We aim to characterize clinical features and identify the mutation causing BAFME in a large Malian family with 10 affected members. METHODS Long-read whole genome sequencing, repeat-primed polymerase chain reaction and RNA studies were performed. RESULTS We identified TTTTA repeat expansions and TTTCA repeat insertions in intron 4 of the RAI1 gene that co-segregated with disease status in this family. TTTCA repeats were absent in 200 Malian controls. In the affected individuals, we found a read with only nine TTTCA repeat units and somatic instability. The RAI1 repeat expansions cause the only BAFME type in which the disease-causing repeats are in a gene associated with a monogenic disorder in the haploinsufficiency state (ie, Smith-Magenis syndrome [SMS]). Nevertheless, none of the Malian patients exhibited symptoms related to SMS. Moreover, leukocyte RNA levels of RAI1 in six Malian BAFME patients were no different from controls. CONCLUSIONS These findings establish a new type of BAFME, BAFME8, in an African family and suggest that haploinsufficiency is unlikely to be the main pathomechanism of BAFME. © 2023 International Parkinson and Movement Disorder Society.
