Is Cerebral Palsy Genetic

What’s Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral palsy is a group of neurological disorders that can involve brain and nervous system functions, such as movement, learning, speaking, hearing, seeing, and thinking. Is Cerebral Palsy Genetic?
There are several different types of cerebral palsy, including spastic, dyskinetic, ataxic, hypotonic, and mixed. Cerebral palsy is caused by injuries or abnormalities of the brain. Cerebral palsy can be detected in the first 6 months after the birth of the children. Genetic factors are believed as an affecting factor for cerebral palsy.
Congenital Cerebral Palsy
Cerebral palsy can be divided into 2 categories: Congenital Cerebral Palsy and Acquired Cerebral Palsy. Among them, Congenital Cerebral Palsy accounts for more than 70% in cerebral palsy patients.
Is Cerebral Palsy Genetic? Congenital Cerebral Palsy can develop before birth and can be caused by genetic conditions, maternal infections, and fetal injury. For example,when a pregnant woman is infected, the fetus may develop cerebral palsy. It can be caused by complications during birth, including asphyxia and oxygen starvation.
Risky factors of Cerebral Palsy in Genetic affection
Some genetic factors for obstetric risk factors include preterm birth, placental abruption, fetal growth restriction, preeclampsia, and breech presentations. A research identified familial recurrence of athetoid cerebral palsy typically connected with spasticity, poor intelligence, and epilepsy as an autosomal-recessive or X-linked-recessive inheritance.
Gene mutations
Gene mutations can be caused by some environmental factors, some poison or bad habit.
Genetic defects
Is Cerebral Palsy Genetic? Some genetic defects may also cause brain malformations, which damages nerve system conduction and result in cerebral palsy. Besides, some dysfunctional hereditary genes may cause leukodystrophy of brain.
Best treatment for Cerebral Palsy
Stem cell transplantation treatment for cerebral palsy is currently the best treatment for congenital cerebral palsy in the world. Rather than conventional therapies, it works directly on the injured nerve cells and restore the function of nerve system, which improves significantly the motor function of CP patients. We have achieved great success in Stem cell treatment for cerebral palsy in Cells Center China with the 87% effective rate.
