Genetic and Clinical Profile of Chinese Patients with Autosomal Dominant Spastic Paraplegia

Summary

Our work reveals a non-classical spastic paraplegia, intellectual disability, nystagmus, and obesity phenotype for a KIDINS220 mutation, which broadens both the clinical and genetic spectrum for ADHSP. Beyond underscoring the utility of using both MLPA and WES in studies of HSP, our work deepens the scientific understanding of phenotypes for ADHSP and defines new genetic variants to facilitate future diagnoses.
