Pathophysiology of cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis
Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) is a rare autosomal-recessive lipid storage disease caused by mutations in the CYP27A1 gene, which lead to deficiency of the mitochondrial enzyme, sterol 27-hydroxylase, resulting in the accumulation of cholestanol in the serum and many affected lesions.

Tendon xanthomas as indicators of atherosclerotic burden on coronary arteries
The presence of tendon xanthomas is an almost certain indicator of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). They also reflect coronary atherosclerotic burden and therefore must be treated aggressively.

The Genetic Landscape of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia in Greece
We investigated 112 Greek index‐cases with hereditary spastic paraplegia collected over > 25 years using NGS and MLPA. We identified a causative variant in 68 patients (60.7%), including 7 novel causative variants. This study presents a comprehensive overview of the phenotypic and genotypic spectrum of HSP in the Greek population.
