MDSGene Systematic Review of Common Forms of Dominant Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia: Novel Insights
Abstract Background Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive spasticity and lower limb weakness. The most common forms of autosomal dominant HSP are caused by pathogenic variants in SPAST (SPG4 or HSP‐SPAST), ATL1 (SPG3A or HSP‐ATL1), and REEP1 (SPG31 or HSP‐REEP1).
