Loss‐of‐Function Variants in CPT1C: No Support for a Causal Role in Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are neurodegenerative disorders characterized by lower‐limb spasticity. Pathogenic variants in CPT1C have been implicated in HSP. Objective The objective of this study was to assess whether CPT1C loss‐of‐function (LOF) variants are causally associated with HSP.
