Creatine transporter deficiency: Novel mutations and functional studies
X-linked cerebral creatine deficiency (MIM 300036) is caused by deficiency of the creatine transporter encoded by the SLC6A8 gene. Here we report three patients with this condition from Israel.

Epigenetic alterations in creatine transporter deficiency: a new marker for dodecyl creatine ester therapeutic efficacy monitoring [PDF]
Creatine transporter deficiency (CTD) is an X-linked disease caused by mutations in the Slc6a8 gene. The impaired creatine uptake in the brain leads to developmental delays with intellectual disability.

Guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase deficiency: Case report and brief review of the literature
Guanidinoacetate N-methyltransferase (GAMT) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a decrease in creatine synthesis, resulting in cerebral creatine deficiency syndrome (CCDS). GAMT deficiency is caused by mutations in the GAMT

Cerebral Creatine Deficiency Affects the Timing of Oligodendrocyte Myelination
Cerebral creatine deficiency syndrome (CCDS) is an inborn error of metabolism characterized by intellectual delays, seizures, and autistic-like behavior. However, the role of endogenously synthesized creatine on CNS development and function remains poorly understood.
