Familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM) is a rare, severe, autosomal dominant subtype of migraine with aura. Up to 75% of FHM families have a mutation in the P/Q-type calcium channel Ca(v)2.1 subunit CACNA1A gene on chromosome 19p13. Some CACNA1A mutations also may cause epilepsy. Here, we describe novel missense mutations in the ATP1A2 Na(+),K(+)-ATPase pump gene on chromosome 1q23 in two families with FHM. The M731T mutation was found in a family with pure FHM. The R689Q mutation was identified in a family in which FHM and benign familial infantile convulsions partially cosegregate. In this family, all available affected family members with FHM, benign familial infantile convulsions, or both, carry the ATP1A2 mutation. Like FHM linked to 19p13, FHM linked to 1q23 also involves dysfunction of ion transportation and epilepsy is part of its phenotypic spectrum.

Familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM), a rare autosomal dominant subtype of migraine with aura, has been linked to two chromosomal loci, 19p13 and 1q23. Mutations in the Na+K+-ATPase alpha2 subunit gene, ATP1A2, on 1q23 have recently been shown to cause familial hemiplegic migraine type 2 (FHM2). We sequenced the coding regions of this gene in a Finnish chromosome 1q23-linked FHM family with associated symptoms such as coma and identified a novel A1033G mutation in exon 9. This mutation results in a threonine-to-alanine substitution at codon 345. This residue is located in a highly conserved N-terminal region of the M4-5 loop of the Na+,K+-ATPase. Furthermore, the T345A mutation co-segregated with the disorder in our family and was not present in 132 healthy Finnish control individuals. For these reasons it is most likely the FHM-causing mutation in this family.

Familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM) is an autosomal dominant subtype of migraine with hemiparesis during the aura. In over 50% of cases the causative gene is CACNA1A (FHM1), which in some cases produces a phenotype with cerebellar signs, including ataxia and nystagmus. Recently, mutations in ATP1A2 on chromosome 1q23 encoding a Na+/K+ -ATPase subunit were identified in four families (FHM2). We now describe an FHM2 pedigree with a fifth ATP1A2 mutation coding for a G301R substitution. The phenotype was particularly severe and included hemiplegic migraine, seizure, prolonged coma, elevated temperature, sensory deficit, and transient or permanent cerebellar signs, such as ataxia, nystagmus, and dysarthria. A mild crossed cerebellar diaschisis during an attack further supported the clinical evidence of a cerebellar deficit. This is the first report suggesting cerebellar involvement in FHM2. A possible role for CACNA1A in producing the phenotype in this family was excluded by linkage studies to the FHM1 locus. The study of this family suggests that the absence of cerebellar signs may not be a reliable indicator to clinically differentiate FHM2 from FHM1.

Familial hemiplegic migraine type 2, an autosomal dominant form of migraine with aura, has been associated with four distinct mutations in the alpha2-subunit of the Na+,K+-ATPase. We have introduced these mutations in the alpha2-subunit of the human Na+,K+-ATPase and the corresponding mutations in the Bufo marinus alpha1-subunit and studied these mutants by expression in Xenopus oocyte. Metabolic labeling studies showed that the mutants were synthesized and associated with the beta-subunit, except for the alpha2HW887R mutant, which was poorly synthesized, and the alpha1BW890R, which was partially retained in the endoplasmic reticulum. [3H]ouabain binding showed the presence of the alpha2HR689Q and alpha2HM731T at the membrane, whereas the alpha2HL764P and alpha2HW887R could not be detected. Functional studies with the mutants of the B. marinus Na+,K+-ATPase showed a reduced or abolished electrogenic activity and a low K+ affinity for the alpha1BW890R mutant. Through different mechanisms, all these mutations result in a strong decrease of the functional expression of the Na+,K+-pump. The decreased activity in alpha2 isoform of the Na+,K+-pump expressed in astrocytes seems an essential component of hemiplegic migraine pathogenesis and may be responsible for the cortical spreading depression, which is one of the first events in migraine attacks.

Migraine is a recurrent neurovascular disease. Its two most common forms-migraine without aura (MO) and migraine with aura (MA)-both show familial clustering and a complex pattern of inheritance. Familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM) is a rare monogenic subform caused by mutations in the calcium channel gene CACNA1A or the Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase gene ATP1A2. An involvement of FHM genes in the pathogenesis of common forms of migraine is not proven. We therefore systematically screened ATP1A2 in families with several members affected by MA and/or MO. We identified two novel missense alterations [c.520G>A (p.E174 K) and c.1544G>A (p.C515Y)] in two out of 45 families, which were not found in 520 control chromosomes. Functional studies of these variants in Xenopus oocytes by two-electrode voltage clamp measurements and radiochemical determination of ATPase activity showed that C515Y leads to a complete loss of function comparable with the effect of FHM-mutations whereas for E174 K no functional alteration could be found in the in vitro assays. In conclusion we propose that rare variants in ATP1A2 are involved in the susceptibility to common forms of migraine, because of 1) the absence of alterations in controls, 2) the particular pattern of segregation in both families, 3) the high conservation of mutated residues in Na(+)/K(+)-ATPases, 4) the functional effect of C515Y, and 5) the involvement of ATP1A2 in a monogenic form of migraine.

Familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM) is a rare autosomal dominantly inherited subtype of migraine, in which hemiparesis occurs during the aura. The majority of the families carry mutations in the CACNA1A gene on chromosome 19p13 (FHM1). About 20% of FHM families is linked to chromosome 1q23 (FHM2), and has mutations in the ATP1A2 gene, encoding the alpha2-subunit of the Na,K-ATPase. Mutation analysis in a Dutch and a Turkish family with pure FHM revealed two novel de novo missense mutations, R593W and V628M, respectively. Cellular survival assays support the hypothesis that both mutations are disease-causative. The identification of the first de novo mutations underscores beyond any doubt the involvement of the ATP1A2 gene in FHM2.

Familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM) is a rare and genetically heterogeneous autosomal dominant subtype of migraine with aura. Mutations in the genes CACNA1A and SCNA1A, encoding the pore-forming alpha(1) subunits of the neuronal voltage-gated Ca2+ channels Ca(V)2.1 and Na+ channels Na(V)1.1, are responsible for FHM1 and FHM3, respectively, whereas mutations in ATP1A2, encoding the alpha2 subunit of the Na+, K+ adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase), are responsible for FHM2. This review discusses the functional studies of two FHM1 knockin mice and of several FHM mutants in heterologous expression systems (12 FHM1, 8 FHM2, and 1 FHM3). These studies show the following: (1) FHM1 mutations produce gain-of-function of the Ca(V)2.1 channel and, as a consequence, increased Ca(V)2.1-dependent neurotransmitter release from cortical neurons and facilitation of in vivo induction and propagation of cortical spreading depression (CSD: the phenomenon underlying migraine aura); (2) FHM2 mutations produce loss-of-function of the alpha2 Na+,K+-ATPase; and (3) the FHM3 mutation accelerates recovery from fast inactivation of Na(V)1.5 (and presumably Na(V)1.1) channels. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that FHM mutations share the ability of rendering the brain more susceptible to CSD by causing either excessive synaptic glutamate release (FHM1) or decreased removal of K+ and glutamate from the synaptic cleft (FHM2) or excessive extracellular K+ (FHM3). The FHM data support a key role of CSD in migraine pathogenesis and point to cortical hyperexcitability as the basis for vulnerability to CSD and to migraine attacks. Hence, they support novel therapeutic strategies that consider CSD and cortical hyperexcitability as key targets for preventive migraine treatment.

Familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM) is a rare autosomal-dominant subtype of migraine with aura, associated with hemiparesis during the aura. Here we describe a unique FHM family in which two novel allelic missense mutations in the Na,K-ATPase gene ATP1A2 segregate in the proband with hemiplegic migraine. Both mutations show reduced penetrance in family members of the proband. Cellular survival assays revealed Na,K-ATPase dysfunction for both ATP1A2 mutants, indicating that both mutations are disease causative. This is the first case of compound heterozygosity for any of the known FHM genes.

Familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM) is a rare subtype of migraine with aura inherited with an autosomal dominant pattern. Here, we report the genetic analysis of four families and one sporadic case with hemiplegic migraine (HM) in whom we searched for mutations in the three genes associated with the disease CACNA1A, ATP1A2 and SCN1A. Two novel amino acid changes p.Arg65Trp and p.Tyr9Asn, in the Na,K-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) alpha-2 subunit encoded by the ATP1A2 gene, were found in one FHM family and in the sporadic case, respectively. These mutations are peculiar for their location in the extreme N-terminus, an uncommon mutation target in this protein. Low frequency of migraine attacks in all our mutant patients with low complexity of the associated aura symptoms in the sporadic case is also observed. Besides the two novel mutations, the data here reported confirm the involvement of ATP1A2 gene in the sporadic form of HM, while the negative results on the other families tested for all genes known in HM strengthen the hypothesis of the existence of at least another locus involved in FHM.

The Na,K-ATPase is composed of multiple isoforms and the isoform distribution varies with the tissue and during development. The alpha1 isoform for example, is the major isoform in the kidney and many other tissues, while the alpha2 isoform is the predominate one in skeletal muscle. All three isoforms are found in the brain although in adult rodent brain, the alpha 3 isoform is located essentially in neurons while the alpha2 isoform is found in astrocytes and some limited neuronal populations. Interestingly the alpha 4 isoform is found exclusively in the mid region of the sperm tail. The distribution of the isoforms of the Na,K-ATPase has been extensively studied in many tissues and during development. The examples cited above provide some indication to the diversity of Na,K-ATPase isoform expression. In order to understand the significance of this distribution, we have developed animals which lack the alpha1, alpha2, and alpha 3 isoforms. It is anticipated that these studies will provide insight into the role that these isoforms play in driving various biological processes in specific tissues. Here we describe some of our studies which deal with the behavioral aspects of the alpha1, alpha2, and alpha 3 deficient mice, particularly those that are haploinsufficient in one isoform i.e. lacking one functional gene for the alpha1, alpha2, or alpha 3 isoforms. Such studies are important as two human diseases are associated with deficiency in the alpha2 and alpha 3 isoforms. These are Familial Hemiplegic Migraine type 2 and Rapid-Onset Dystonia Parkinsonism, these diseases result from alpha2 and alpha 3 isoform haploinsufficiency, respectively. We find that the haploinsufficiency of both alpha2 and alpha 3 isoforms result in behavioral defects.
