Article Synopsis
- Hypomyelinating leukodystrophies are genetic disorders with severe myelin deficiency, resulting in developmental delays, nystagmus, hypotonia, spasticity, and ataxia.
- Variants in the HSP60 chaperonin protein have been linked to various neurological disorders, and recent findings highlight a group of patients with new heterozygous variants related to a unique hypomyelinating disorder.
- Clinical evaluations and genetic assays in a study of three patients showed early symptoms of nystagmus and hypotonia that progressed to spasticity, confirming that defective chaperonin assembly likely contributes to these disorders.
