Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Fatty acid 2-hydroxylase (FA2H) is encoded by the FA2H gene, with mutations therein leading to the neurodegenerative condition, spastic paraplegia-35 (SPG35). We aim to elucidate the genetic underpinnings of a nonconsanguineous Chinese family diagnosed with SPG35 by examining the clinical manifestations, scrutinizing genetic variants, and establishing the role of FA2H mutation in lipid metabolism....
