Genetic mapping of a susceptibility locus for disc herniation and spastic paraplegia on 6q23.3-q24.1.
It has been suggested that a genetic factor(s) or a familial predisposition may contribute to the clinical manifestations of disc herniation; moreover, no genetic linkage between spinal disc herniation and spastic paraplegia has ever been described. A family with consanguineous parents and four of eight sibs affected by multiple disc herniations and spastic paraplegia was clinically and genetic...
متن کاملMapping of a complicated familial spastic paraplegia to locus SPG4 on chromosome 2p.
Autosomal dominant familial spastic paraplegia (AD-FSP) is a degenerative disorder of the central motor system characterised by progressive spasticity of the lower limbs. AD-FSP has been divided into pure and complicated forms. Pure AD-FSP is genetically heterogeneous; three loci have been mapped to chromosomes 14q (SPG3), 2p (SPG4), and 15q (SPG6), whereas no loci responsible for complicated f...
متن کاملFamilial spastic paraplegia, bilateral sensorineural deafness, and intellectual retardation associated with a progressive nephropathy.
We present a family in which at least four persons have evidence of an inherited disorder comprising a variable spastic paraplegia, bilateral sensorineural deafness, intellectual retardation, and a progressive nephropathy. Focal segmental proliferative lesions with sclerosis suggestive of mesangial IgA nephropathy (Berger's disease) were found on renal renal biopsy in two affected persons. The ...
متن کاملStrumpell's pure familial spastic paraplegia: case study and review of the literature.
A family with pure Strumpell's familial paraplegia is presented. There were 11 afflicted members involving three generations. The mode of inheritance was dominant, the onset in the first decade, and in this family the disease was mild. Literature data from 104 families with 536 members dating from 1880 are tabulated. This report confirms others regarding mode of inheritance, age of onset, distr...
متن کاملSPG20 mutation in three siblings with familial hereditary spastic paraplegia
Troyer syndrome (MIM#275900) is an autosomal recessive form of complicated hereditary spastic paraplegia. It is characterized by progressive lower extremity spasticity and weakness, dysarthria, distal amyotrophy, developmental delay, short stature, and subtle skeletal abnormalities. It is caused by deleterious mutations in the SPG20 gene, encoding spartin, on Chromosome 13q13. Until now, six un...
