Small-vessel diseases of the brain underlie 20 to 30 percentof ischemic strokes and a larger proportion of intracerebralhemorrhages. In this report, we show that a mutation in themouse Col4a1 gene, encoding procollagen type IV 1, predisposesboth newborn and adult mice to intracerebral hemorrhage. Surgicaldelivery of mutant mice alleviated birth-associated trauma andhemorrhage. We identified a COL4A1 mutation in a human familywith small-vessel disease. We concluded that mutation of COL4A1may cause a spectrum of cerebrovascular phenotypes and thatpersons with COL4A1 mutations may be predisposed to hemorrhage,especially after environmental stress.
