A Comprehensive NMR Analysis of Serum and Fecal Metabolites in Familial Dysautonomia Patients Reveals Significant Metabolic Perturbations [PDF]
Central metabolism has a profound impact on the clinical phenotypes and penetrance of neurological diseases such as Alzheimer’s (AD) and Parkinson’s (PD) diseases, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). In contrast to the

Therapeutic manipulation of IKBKAP mis-splicing with a small molecule to cure familial dysautonomia [PDF]
Familial dysautonomia is caused by splicing mutation of IKBKAP gene, which induces skipping of exon 20 and subsequent functional loss. Here, the authors report that a synthetic splice modulator RECTAS ameliorates pathogenic exon 20 skipping and shows ...

AAV2-mediated intravitreal delivery of exon-specific U1 snRNA rescues optic neuropathy in familial dysautonomia [PDF]
Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder caused by a splicing mutation in the ELP1 gene. It predominantly affects the sensory and autonomic nervous systems, with progressive vision loss due to optic neuropathy ...

Retrograde nerve growth factor signaling abnormalities and the pathogenesis of familial dysautonomia
Loss of ELP1 in familial dysautonomia leads to hyperactivation of Shp1 phosphatase activity which results in TrkA dephosphorylation, failed retrograde signaling, severe physiologic dysautonomia and sensory abnormalities due to neuron death.
