Management of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia: A Systematic Review of the Literature
The term hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) embraces a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative diseases characterized by progressive spasticity and weakness of the lower limbs.

Autosomal‐dominant variants in the CPT1C gene have been associated with hereditary spastic paraplegia type 73 (SPG73), which typically presents with slowly progressive lower limb weakness and spasticity and is therefore considered a pure form of ...

Defects in ER–endosome contacts impact lysosome function in hereditary spastic paraplegia
Contacts between endosomes and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) promote endosomal tubule fission, but the mechanisms involved and consequences of tubule fission failure are incompletely understood. We found that interaction between the microtubule-severing

Hereditary spastic paraplegia in Greece: characterisation of a previously unexplored population using next-generation sequencing [PDF]
Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP) is a syndrome characterised by lower limb spasticity, occurring alone or in association with other neurological manifestations, such as cognitive impairment, seizures, ataxia or neuropathy.

Genetic and metabolic diagnostic profile of children presented with spastic paraplegia/diplegia
Background: Spastic paraplegia/diplegia in children may be an early manifestation of underlying neurogenetic disorders which are often underdiagnosed in clinical practice.

Identification of the Drosophila melanogaster homolog of the human spastin gene [PDF]
The human SPG4 locus encodes the spastin gene, which is responsible for the most prevalent form of autosomal dominant hereditary spastic paraplegia (AD-HSP), a neurodegenerative disorder.

Bi-allelic variants in RNF170 are associated with hereditary spastic paraplegia
Disturbances in IP3 receptor-mediated release of Ca2+ from the endoplasmatic reticulum are associated with neurodegenerative disease. Here, the authors identify in four families with hereditary spastic paraplegia biallelic mutations in RNF170 that ...

A novel mutation in SACS gene in a family from southern Italy [PDF]
A form of autosomal recessive spastic ataxia (ARSACS) has been described in the Charlevoix and Saguenay regions of Quebec. So far a frameshift and a nonsense mutation have been identified in the SACS gene. The authors report a new mutation (1859insC),
