Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia: An Update

Arun Meyyazhagan et al.

Summary: This review provides an overview of hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), including its clinical manifestations, etiology, diagnosis, and treatment methods. Although modern medical interventions have helped, there is still room for improvement in the treatment of this disorder.

Heterozygous KIF1A variants underlie a wide spectrum of neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders

Francesco Nicita et al.

Summary: This study reports on 19 Caucasian patients with heterozygous KIF1A variants, divided into two groups based on their clinical presentation. Most of the identified variants were located within the kinesin motor domain, expanding the clinical and mutational spectrum of KIF1A-related disorders.

Hereditary spastic paraplegia

Sireesha Murala et al.

Summary: Hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are a group of neurodegenerative disorders involving the corticospinal tracts, characterized by spasticity and weakness in the lower extremities. Classification is based on inheritance pattern, clinical phenotype, and molecular mechanisms. The most common neuropathological feature is axonal degeneration in the lateral corticospinal tracts.

Challenges and Controversies in the Genetic Diagnosis of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia

Lydia Saputra et al.

Summary: The hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) present challenges and controversies in genetic diagnosis, with difficulties in updating gene testing panels and phenotypic overlap with other disorders. Developing strategies to overcome these challenges may lead to rapid and accurate genetic diagnosis for personalized treatments.

Brain Damage and Gene Expression Across Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia Subtypes

Katiane R. Servelhere et al.

Summary: HSPs are characterized by brain damage, with genotype-specific patterns of abnormalities. Most HSP patients show brain and cerebellar involvement, with distinct damage patterns based on genetic subtypes.

Systematic analysis of short tandem repeats in 38,095 exomes provides an additional diagnostic yield

Bart P. G. H. van der Sanden et al.

Summary: The study examined the diagnostic utility of STR analysis in exome sequencing, identifying patients with abnormal STR length and providing molecular diagnoses for some cases. Systematic STR evaluation was shown to increase diagnostic yield of exome sequencing, suggesting routine inclusion of STR evaluation in genetic testing laboratories for improved interpretation.

Mahdieh Pashaei et al.

Summary: This study conducted whole-exome sequencing on three unrelated Iranian probands with HSP, identifying novel homozygous variants in known HSP-causing genes including ENTPD1, CYP7B1, and ZFYVE26. The research revealed the greater complexities of phenotypic manifestations and allelic heterogeneity in HSP.
