Hereditary spastic paraplegia
Gene: RTN2
Comment on mode of inheritance: As there are sufficient number of cases with biallelic variants and lower limb spasticity, the MOI has been updated to 'BOTH monoallelic and biallelic, autosomal or pseudoautosomal'.Created: 16 Apr 2024, 11:15 p.m. | Last Modified: 16 Apr 2024, 11:15 p.m.

As reviewed by Nour Elkhateeb, PMID:38527963 reported the identification of seven novel or ultra-rare homozygous loss-of-function RTN2 variants in 14 individuals from seven unrelated families with distal hereditary motor neuropathy. All affected individuals exhibited weakness in the distal upper and lower limbs, lower limb spasticity, hyperreflexia, with an onset in the first decade of life.
Characterisation of C. elegans RTN2 homolog loss-of-function variants demonstrated morphological and behavioural differences compared to the parental strain, and treatment with an endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) re-uptake inhibitor (2,5-di-tert-butylhydroquinone) rescued key phenotypic differences.
Biallelic variants in RTN2 gene have not yet been associated with any phenotypes in OMIM or Gene2Phenotype, while monoallelic variants have been associated with spastic paraplegia (MIM #604805) in OMIM.Created: 16 Apr 2024, 11:13 p.m. | Last Modified: 16 Apr 2024, 11:13 p.m.
