Novel translational phenotypes and biomarkers for creatine transporter deficiency [PDF]
Creatine transporter deficiency is a metabolic disorder characterized by intellectual disability, autistic-like behaviour and epilepsy. There is currently no cure for creatine transporter deficiency, and reliable biomarkers of translational value for ...

[18F]FDG-PET and [18F]MPPF-PET are brain biomarkers for the creatine transporter Slc6a8 loss of function mutation [PDF]
Pathogenic variants in the creatine transporter gene SLC6A8, reported to represent 2% of all intellectual disabilities in males, result in a spectrum of behavioral abnormalities including developmental delay, intellectual disability, and deficit in ...

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.

Upregulation of the Creatine Transporter Slc6A8 by Klotho
Background/Aims: The transmembrane Klotho protein contributes to inhibition of 1,25(OH)2D3 formation. The extracellular domain of Klotho protein could function as an enzyme with e.g. β-glucuronidase activity, be cleaved off and be released into blood and

The present study aimed to investigate whether skeletal muscle from whole body creatine transporter (CrT; SLC6A8) knockout mice (CrT-/y) actually contained creatine (Cr) and if so, whether this Cr could result from an up regulation of muscle Cr ...

Creatine transporter (SLC6A8) knockout mice exhibit reduced muscle performance, disrupted mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis, and severe muscle atrophy [PDF]
Creatine (Cr) is essential for cellular energy homeostasis, particularly in muscle and brain tissues. Creatine Transporter Deficiency (CTD), an X-linked disorder caused by mutations in the SLC6A8 gene, disrupts Cr transport, leading to intellectual ...

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.

Creatine transporter deficiency impairs stress adaptation and brain energetics homeostasis [PDF]
The creatine transporter (CrT) maintains brain creatine (Cr) levels, but the effects of its deficiency on energetics adaptation under stress remain unclear.
