Abstract Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and early menopause (EM) affect millions of women worldwide. Compared with normal menopause, they confer a longer duration of estrogen deficiency and are associated not only with a shorter lifespan, but with a reduced healthspan, owing to an increased risk of cardiovascular, skeletal, cognitive and ...

Negative Effects of Chronic Rapamycin Treatment on Behavior in a Mouse Model of Fragile X Syndrome
Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most common form of inherited intellectual disability, is also highly associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). It is caused by expansion of a CGG repeat sequence on the X chromosome resulting in silencing of the FMR1

Carbon Quantum Dots: From Mechanisms to Biomedical Applications
Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) are promising carbon‐based nanomaterials with broad biomedical applications, including bioimaging, drug delivery, biosensing, and tissue regeneration. This Review summarizes the biological mechanisms of CQDs in tissue regeneration, focusing on their regulation of cellular functions, immune responses, and redox balance.

Fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMRP) is a multidomain RNA‐binding protein associated with Fragile X Syndrome (FXS). We found that its N‐terminal structured region has an intrinsic propensity to undergo liquid–liquid phase separation and fibril formation. FXS‐associated mutations perturb protein stability and aggregation propensity, suggesting

Summary: The human genome has many short tandem repeats, yet the normal functions of these repeats are unclear. The 5′ untranslated region (UTR) of the fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMR1) gene contains polymorphic CGG repeats, the length of ...

Synaptic Proteostasis in Health and Disease
The localised creation and degradation of proteins at the pre and postsynaptic terminal are processes that are crucial for neuronal homeostasis. Synaptic proteostasis pathways are frequently reported as dysregulated in neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders.

Alternative splicing of the FMR1 gene in human tissues of fetal and adult
To study the time- and tissue-specificity of alternative splicing of the FMR1 gene, we analyzed the alternative splicing pattern of the FMR1 gene in human tissues from adult and fetus using RT-PCR coupled with capillary electrophoresis. Seven alternative
