Modulation of the GABAergic pathway for the treatment of fragile X syndrome. [PDF]
, 2014 Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common genetic cause of intellectual disability and the most common single-gene cause of autism. It is caused by mutations on the fragile X mental retardation gene (FMR1) and lack of fragile X mental retardation ...

Cognitive Dysfunction in FMR1 Premutation Carriers [PDF]
Current Psychiatry Reviews, 2013 Premutation carriers of the fragile X mental retardation gene (especially men) older than 50 may develop a neurodegenerative disease, the fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS). Carriers may present with varied cognitive impairments. Attention, working memory, declarative and procedural learning, information processing speed, and recall ...

Detection of skewed X-chromosome inactivation in Fragile X syndrome and X chromosome aneuploidy using quantitative melt analysis. [PDF]
, 2015 Methylation of the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) exon 1/intron 1 boundary positioned fragile X related epigenetic element 2 (FREE2), reveals skewed X-chromosome inactivation (XCI) in fragile X syndrome full mutation (FM: CGG > 200) females ...

Early intervention combined with targeted treatment promotes cognitive and behavioral improvements in young children with fragile x syndrome. [PDF]
, 2012 Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common inherited cause of intellectual disability due to an expansion in the full mutation range (>200 CGG repeats) of the promoter region of the FMR1 gene leading to gene silencing.

Effect of AGG Interruptions on FMR1 Maternal Transmissions [PDF]
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2020 There are four classes of CGG repeat alleles in the FMR1 gene: normal alleles have up to 44 repeats; patients with Fragile X Syndrome have more than 200 repeats; those between 55 and 200 CGGs are considered FMR1 premutation alleles, because they are associated with maternal expansions of the number of CGGs in the next generation and finally, alleles ...

Evaluation of the role of FMR1 CGG repeat allele in Parkinson’s disease from the Chinese population
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2023 ObjectiveThere is controversial evidence that FMR1 premutation or “gray zone” (GZ) allele (small CGG expansion, 45–54 repeats) was associated with Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Postpartum Depression in Women with the FMR1 Premutation [PDF]
Current Psychiatry Reviews, 2013 Psychiatric disorders in women with the FMR1 premutation are common and include attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, anxiety, depression, and eating disorders. This pilot study explored the risk factors for postpartum depression (PPD) in women with the premutation.We conducted a chart review of 50 women premutation carriers with major depressive ...

Neuroimaging Insight Into Fragile X-Associated Neuropsychiatric Disorders: Literature Review
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2021 FMR1 premutation is defined by 55–200 CGG repeats in the Fragile X Mental Retardation 1 (FMR1) gene. FMR1 premutation carriers are at risk of developing a neurodegenerative disease called fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) and Fragile X ...
