Dominant KPNA3 Mutations Cause Infantile‐Onset Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) is a highly heterogeneous neurologic disorder characterized by lower‐extremity spasticity. Here, we set out to determine the genetic basis of an autosomal dominant, pure, and infantile‐onset form of HSP in a cohort of ...

Skin fibroblasts were obtained from a 47-year-old hereditary spastic paraplegia patient carrying a homozygous mutation R486C in CYP7B1 (Cytochrome P450, Family 7, Subfamily B, Polypeptide 1), responsible for causing hereditary spastic paraplegia type 5 ...

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

Bi-allelic loss-of-function variants in genes that encode subunits of the adaptor protein complex 4 (AP-4) lead to prototypical yet poorly understood forms of childhood-onset and complex hereditary spastic paraplegia: SPG47 (AP4B1), SPG50 (AP4M1), SPG51 (

Complex phenotype in an Italian family with a novel mutation in SPG3A. [PDF]
Mutations in the SPG3A gene represent a significant cause of autosomal dominant hereditary spastic paraplegia with early onset and pure phenotype. We describe an Italian family manifesting a complex phenotype, characterized by cerebellar involvement in ...

Overexpression of KLC2 due to a homozygous deletion in the non-coding region causes SPOAN syndrome [PDF]
SPOAN syndrome is a neurodegenerative disorder mainly characterized by spastic paraplegia, optic atrophy and neuropathy (SPOAN). Affected patients are wheelchair bound after 15 years old, with progressive joint contractures and spine deformities.

Electrical Stimulation of Denervated Muscle: A Narrative Review
This review explores existing strategies for stimulating denervated muscle following lower motor neuron injury, including direct electrical stimulation of the muscle and artificial reinnervation to enable more comfortable and efficient indirect functional muscle stimulation.

Lipid Droplets in the Pathogenesis of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are genetically heterogeneous conditions caused by the progressive dying back of the longest axons in the central nervous system, the corticospinal axons.
