Rescue of lysosomal function as therapeutic strategy for SPG15 hereditary spastic paraplegia
27 Aug 2022
Abstract excerpt
SPG15 is a hereditary spastic paraplegia subtype caused by mutations in Spastizin, a protein encoded by the ZFYVE26 gene. Spastizin is involved in autophagosome maturation and autophagic lysosome reformation and SPG15-related mutations lead to autophagic lysosome reformation defects with lysosome enlargement, free lysosome depletion and autophagosome accumulation. Symptomatic and rehabilitative treatments are the...
