A Novel Mutation of the ABCD1 Gene in Serbian X-Adrenoleukodystrophy [PDF]

open access: yesBalkan Journal of Medical Genetics, 2008
A Novel Mutation of the ABCD1 Gene in Serbian X-AdrenoleukodystrophyX-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (XALD), the most common inherited peroxisomal disorder, is characterized by central nervous system demyelination, primary adrenal failure and the systemic accumulation of saturated very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs).

Longitudinal Clinical Progression in X‐Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy: The AMNL Scoring System [PDF]

open access: yesAnn Child Neurol Soc
ABSTRACT Objective The current clinical nomenclature for individuals with ABCD1 gene dysfunction is often uninformative. The disorder was initially described as a combination of adrenal insufficiency and leukodystrophy, leading to the widespread use of “X‐linked adrenoleukodystrophy” (ALD).

Contiguous Deletion of the X-Linked Adrenoleukodystrophy Gene (ABCD1) and DXS1357E: A Novel Neonatal Phenotype Similar to Peroxisomal Biogenesis Disorders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) results from mutations in ABCD1. ABCD1 resides on Xq28 and encodes an integral peroxisomal membrane protein (ALD protein [ALDP]) that is of unknown function and that belongs to the ATP-binding cassette–transporter ...

Genetic analysis and prenatal diagnosis of 76 Chinese families with X‐linked adrenoleukodystrophy

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2022
Background Variants in the ATP binding cassette protein subfamily D member 1 (ABCD1) gene are known to cause X‐linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X‐ALD). This study focused on the characteristics of ABCD1 variants in Chinese X‐ALD families and elucidated the ...

A Novel Double Mutation in the ABCD1 Gene in a Patient with X-linked Adrenoleukodystrophy: Analysis of the Stability and Function of the Mutant ABCD1 Protein [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We diagnosed an adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN) patient with a double novel missense mutation, c.284C>A (p.A95D) and c.290A>T (p.H97L) in a single ABCD1 allele. In skin fibroblasts from the patient, no ABCD1 protein was detected by immunoblot analysis, and the C24:0 β-oxidation activity was decreased to a level at which the ABCD1 protein was absent.

Hematopoietic stem-cell gene therapy is associated with restored white matter microvascular function in cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy (CALD) is a demyelinating disease caused by loss of ABCD1 gene function. Here the authors investigate white matter structural and microvascular changes in boys with CALD that received gene therapy with autologous ...

A large family with p.Arg554his mutation in abcd1: Clinical features and genotype/phenotype correlation in female carriers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD, OMIM #300100) is the most common peroxisomal disorder clinically characterized by two main phenotypes: Adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN) and the cerebral demyelinating form of X-ALD (cerebral ALD). The disease is caused by
