The clinical and molecular spectrum of ZFYVE26-associated hereditary spastic paraplegia: SPG15.
In the field of hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), progress in molecular diagnostics needs to be translated into robust phenotyping studies to understand genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity and to support interventional trials.

Inertial Gait Sensors to Measure Mobility and Functioning in Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
Background and Objectives Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) causes progressive spasticity and weakness of the lower limbs. As neurologic examination and the clinical Spastic Paraplegia Rating Scale (SPRS) are subject to potential patient-dependent and ...

Rescue of lysosomal function as therapeutic strategy for SPG15 hereditary spastic paraplegia
SPG15 is a hereditary spastic paraplegia subtype caused by mutations in Spastizin, a protein encoded by the ZFYVE26 gene. Spastizin is involved in autophagosome maturation and autophagic lysosome reformation and SPG15-related mutations lead to autophagic

Biallelic variants in HPDL cause pure and complicated hereditary spastic paraplegia.
Human 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase-like (HPDL) is a putative iron-containing non-heme oxygenase of unknown specificity and biological significance. We report 25 families containing 34 individuals with neurological disease associated with biallelic

Specific Gait Changes in Prodromal Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia Type 4: preSPG4 Study
In hereditary spastic paraplegia type 4 (SPG4), subclinical gait changes might occur years before patients realize gait disturbances. The prodromal phase of neurodegenerative disease is of particular interest to halt disease progression by future ...
