Loss of Elp1 disrupts trigeminal ganglion neurodevelopment in a model of familial dysautonomia
Familial Dysautonomia (FD) is a sensory and autonomic neuropathy caused by a mutation in Elongator complex protein 1 (ELP1). FD patients have small trigeminal nerves and impaired perception of facial pain and temperature.

Elongator and codon bias regulate protein levels in mammalian peripheral neurons
Familial dysautonomia is linked to mutations in IKBKAP, a scaffolding protein for the Elongator complex, which regulates codon-biased gene translation in yeast. Here the authors show in mammalian neurons that IKBKAP loss alters expression of codon-biased

Severe heart disease in an unusual case of familial amyloid polyneuropathy type I
Familial amyloid polyneuropathy type I (FAP type I) is a rare hereditary systemic amyloidosis caused by the Val30Met mutation in the transthyretin (TTR) gene. The clinical onset and spectrum are variable and depend on phenotypic heterogeneity.

Engineered CRISPR-Base Editors as a Permanent Treatment for Familial Dysautonomia
Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a fatal autosomal recessive congenital neuropathy caused by a T-to-C mutation in intron 20 of the Elongator acetyltransferase complex subunit 1 (ELP1) gene, which causes tissue-specific skipping of exon 20 and reduction of ...

Life‐Threatening Bradycardia in Anti‐NMDA‐Receptor Encephalitis and a Novel Use for Permanent Pacing
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric anti‐NMDA receptor encephalitis (pNMDARE) is an autoantibody‐mediated disorder that can cause severe autonomic dysfunction, including symptomatic bradycardia and asystole. Dysautonomia can last for years, making it very challenging to manage.

Objectives Sjögren's disease is an autoimmune disorder that can impact multiple organ systems, including the peripheral nervous system (PNS). PNS manifestations, which can exist concurrently, include mononeuropathies, polyneuropathies, and autonomic nervous system neuropathies. To help patients and providers in the decision‐making process, we developed
