The disease is caused by defects in the EPM2A gene coding for a protein phosphatase (laforin) or the NHLRC1 gene coding for an ubiquitin ligase (malin). Studies have shown that inhibition of glycogen synthesis in the brain could prevent the formation of Lafora bodies in the neurons and reduce seizure susceptibility in laforin-deficient mouse, an established animal model for LD. Since increased glucose uptake is thought to underlie increased glycogen in LD, and since the adipocyte hormone leptin is known to positively regulate the glucose uptake in neurons, we reasoned that blocking leptin signaling might reduce the neuronal glucose uptake and ameliorate the LD pathology. We demonstrate here that mice that were deficient for both laforin and leptin receptor showed a reduction in the glycogen level, Lafora bodies and gliosis in the brain, and displayed reduced susceptibility to induced seizures as compared to animals that were deficient only for laforin. Thus, blocking leptin signaling could be a one of the effective therapeutic strategies in LD."xsd:string |
