erlin2 mutations in two iranian families with hereditary spastic paraplegia
spastic paraplegia 18 is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by motor dysfunction, joint contracture and mental retardation. we describe two families as three cases. case 1 is a 35-year-old woman with and spasticity and mild weakness in lower limbs. case 2 and 3 are a sister and brother aged six and two respectively. the older sister suffered from lower limb spasticity, equinovarus an...
متن کاملHereditary spastic paraplegia.
Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) or Strümpell-Lorrain syndrome is a heterogeneous group of inherited disorders, with prevalence ranged from 4.3 to 9.6 cases per 100,000 population. A common feature of these disorders is the slowly progressive and often severe spasticity, noticeably especially in the low limbs. Conventionally, HSP is divided into two clinical groups, uncomplicated (pure spast...

111 families, and Paskind and Stone (1933) also summarized the literature with accounts of another 36 reports from 40 families. Since then about 50 further reports have appeared, covering some 60 families, bringing the total so far to 176 reports of 215 families. Of these the majority have originated in Germany or elsewhere in Europe, but with a substantial number from the Americas. In Britain,...
متن کاملMutations in BICD2 cause dominant congenital spinal muscular atrophy and hereditary spastic paraplegia.
Dominant congenital spinal muscular atrophy (DCSMA) is a disorder of developing anterior horn cells and shows lower-limb predominance and clinical overlap with hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), a lower-limb-predominant disorder of corticospinal motor neurons. We have identified four mutations in bicaudal D homolog 2 (Drosophila) (BICD2) in six kindreds affected by DCSMA, DCSMA with upper mot...
متن کاملTruncating mutations in SPAST patients are associated with a high rate of psychiatric comorbidities in hereditary spastic paraplegia
BACKGROUND The hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) are a rare and heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative disorders that are clinically characterised by progressive lower limb spasticity. They are classified as either 'pure' or 'complex' where spastic paraplegia is complicated with additional neurological features. Mutations in the spastin gene (SPAST) are the most common cause of HSP and ty...
