Transcriptomic analysis of identical twins with different onset ages of adrenoleukodystrophy
IntroductionAdrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is a rare X-linked neurogenetic disease caused by mutations in the ATP-binding cassette subfamily D member 1 (ABCD1) gene. Currently, the molecular mechanisms underlying the onset and severity of ALD remain unclear.

Two novel frameshift mutations in the adrenoleukodystrophy gene in Italian patients
Two novel frameshift adrenoleukodystrophy mutations in two families were identified: a complex dinucleotide deletion/tetranucleotide insertion at 1116 TC→GAGA (codon 244 [serine]) and an AG deletion at nucleotide 1462 (codon 359 [glutamic acid]).

Hematopoietic Stem-Cell Gene Therapy for Cerebral Adrenoleukodystrophy. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: In X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, mutations in ABCD1 lead to loss of function of the ALD protein. Cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy is characterized by demyelination and neurodegeneration.
