    Sleep disturbances such as excessive daytime sleepiness, central and obstructive sleep apneas, restless legs syndrome, and rapid eye movement sleep dysregulation are prominent in patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). Mild intellectual deficits presented in many patients with DM1. In addition, psychosocial issues caused by neuropsychiatric symptoms are a clinical problem. We herein present the cases of four DM1 patients with sleep disturbances and neuropsychiatric symptoms in the preceding stage of clinically significant muscle symptoms. One of the cases exhibited a sleep disorder and neuropsychiatric symptoms before electromyography showed myotonic discharge, suggesting that careful follow-up is also important. Patients 1 and 2 were first referred to our department due to daytime sleepiness. Patients 3 and 4 were objectively suffering from daytime sleepiness of which they were not subjectively aware of. Patients 1, 3, and 4 obtained high apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) scores, which reflected central and/or obstructive apnea, whereas patient 2 had an AHI score of zero. The daytime cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) orexin levels of all patients ranged from the normal lower limit to low, although they were not as low as those observed in narcolepsy with typical cataplexy. Neuropsychological tests of patients 1 and 2 showed frontal lobe dysfunction. Patients 3 and 4 were diagnosed with mild intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder, respectively. All patients exhibited indifference toward their own symptoms, which may have resulted from the cognitive decline caused by DM1. Based on family history and/or neurological findings such as myotonia, we suspected DM1 as the cause of their sleep disturbances. Molecular analysis using the triplet repeat-primed polymerase chain reaction (TP PCR) method and Southern blotting, which provided a genetic confirmation of the diagnosis of DM1, were performed. These clinical features of sleep disturbances were unrelated to the length of CTG repeats and are caused by unknown molecular mechanisms. Clinicians should take into account that multisystem involvement in DM1 is hugely variable, and thus, a disabling sleep disorder could overshadow muscle impairment in DM1 patients.

    Abstract
    Objective
    To identify XK pathologic mutations in 6 patients with suspected McLeod syndrome (MLS) and a possible interaction between the chorea-acanthocytosis (ChAc)- and MLS-responsible proteins: chorein and XK protein.
    Methods
    Erythrocyte membrane proteins from patients with suspected MLS and patients with ChAc, ChAc mutant carriers, and normal controls were analyzed by XK and chorein immunoblotting. We performed mutation analysis and XK immunoblotting to molecularly diagnose the patients with suspected MLS. Lysates of cultured cells were co-immunoprecipitated with anti-XK and anti-chorein antibodies.
    Results
    All suspected MLS cases were molecularly diagnosed with MLS, and novel mutations were identified. The average onset age was 46.8 ± 8 years, which was older than that of the patients with ChAc. The immunoblot analysis revealed remarkably reduced chorein immunoreactivity in all patients with MLS. The immunoprecipitation analysis indicated a direct or indirect chorein-XK interaction.
    Conclusions
    In this study, XK pathogenic mutations were identified in all 6 MLS cases, including novel mutations. Chorein immunoreactions were significantly reduced in MLS erythrocyte mem- branes. In addition, we demonstrated a possible interaction between the chorein and XK protein via molecular analysis. The reduction in chorein expression is similar to that between Kell antigens and XK protein, although the chorein-XK interaction is a possibly noncovalent binding unlike the covalent Kell-XK complex. Our results suggest that reduced chorein levels following lack of XK protein are possibly associated with molecular pathogenesis in MLS.
