FAHN/SPG35 : a narrow phenotypic spectrum across disease classifications [PDF]
The endoplasmic reticulum enzyme fatty acid 2-hydroxylase (FA2H) plays a major role in the formation of 2-hydroxy glycosphingolipids, main components of myelin. FA2H deficiency in mice leads to severe central demyelination and axon loss. In humans it has

Diagnostic Utility of the ATG9A Ratio in AP‐4–Associated Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
ABSTRACT Adaptor protein complex 4–associated hereditary spastic paraplegia (AP‐4‐HSP), a childhood‐onset neurogenetic disorder and frequent mimic of cerebral palsy, is caused by biallelic variants in the adaptor protein complex 4 (AP‐4) subunit genes (AP4B1 [for SPG47], AP4M1 [for SPG50], AP4E1 [for SPG51], and AP4S1 [for SPG52]).

Challenges and Controversies in the Genetic Diagnosis of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
The hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are a group of disorders characterised by progressive lower limb weakness and spasticity. We address the challenges and controversies involved in the genetic diagnosis of HSP.

Hereditary spastic paraplegia: Novel insights into the pathogenesis and management
Hereditary spastic paraplegia is a genetically heterogeneous neurodegenerative disorder characterised primarily by muscle stiffness in the lower limbs. Neurodegenerative disorders are conditions that result from cellular and metabolic abnormalities, many

Loss of paraplegin drives spasticity rather than ataxia in a cohort of 241 patients with SPG7 [PDF]
Objective : We took advantage of a large multinational recruitment to delineate genotype-phenotype correlations in a large, trans-European multicenter cohort of patients with spastic paraplegia gene 7 (SPG7).

This study introduces a hybrid robot that integrates mechanical assistance by musculoskeletons (i.e., soft pneumatic muscle with rigid exoskeletal extensions), neuromuscular electrical stimulation, and vibrotactile feedback in a lightweight wearable mechatronic complex applicable to the paretic ankle–foot poststroke for gait restoration. The system can

A 24-year-old man presented with insidious onset progressive gait disturbance and was finally diagnosed with autosomal recessive hereditary spastic paraplegia. Two novel mutations, including a frameshift mutation (c.5687_5691del) and a non-sense mutation

Mutations in SPG11, encoding spatacsin, are a major cause of spastic paraplegia with thin corpus callosum. [PDF]
Autosomal recessive hereditary spastic paraplegia (ARHSP) with thin corpus callosum (TCC) is a common and clinically distinct form of familial spastic paraplegia that is linked to the SPG11 locus on chromosome 15 in most affected families. We analyzed
