Juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (JNCL) is the most common type of the neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCLs), a group of pediatric neurodegenerative diseases. In this chapter the genetic and biochemical basis, pathogenesis, clinical features, histopathological features, diagnosis and therapeutic strategies of the JNCL are reviewed. The premature death of the patients and subnormal life quality are inevitable due to the lack of understanding of pathogenesis and limitation in treatment. Hence we are still a long way to conquer the disease.

D009472 Neuronal Ceroid-Lipofuscinoses A group of severe neurodegenerative diseases characterized by intracellular accumulation of autofluorescent wax-like lipid materials (CEROID; LIPOFUSCIN) in neurons. There are several subtypes based on mutations of the various genes, time of disease onset, and severity of the neurological defects such as progressive DEMENTIA; SEIZURES; and visual failure.
