Abstract:
We investigated 98 Taiwanese patients with molecularly unassigned hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) and found none of them had the NOTCH2NLC GGC repeat expansion, which is the cause of neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID). Our findings suggest that the NOTCH2NLC GGC repeat expansion may not contribute to HSP.
