| Description |
Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, neurogenic, with myelin defect (AMCNMY) is caused by loss-of-function mutations in LGI4. LGI4 is a ligand secreted by Schwann cells that regulates peripheral nerve myelination via its cognate receptor ADAM22 expressed by neurons. The phenotypic spectrum of LGI4-related AMC varies from a most severe form with intrauterine onset resulting in utero death or termination to neonatal death to milder form with distal arthrogryposis, areflexia, developmental delay, and other variable features.
