miRNA expression and interaction with the 3′UTR of FMR1 in FRAXopathy pathogenesis

open access: yesNon-coding RNA Research, 2021
FRAXopathies are caused by the expansion of the CGG repeat in the 5′UTR of the FMR1 gene, which encodes the protein responsible for the synthesis of FMRP.

Gene therapy using human FMRP isoforms driven by the human FMR1 promoter rescues fragile X syndrome mouse deficits

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2022
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is caused by the loss of the fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMRP) encoded by the FMR1 gene. Gene therapy using adeno-associated virus (AAV) to restore FMRP expression is a promising therapeutic strategy. However, so far

Alternative splicing in the fragile X-gene FMR1

open access: yes, 1993
: The FMR1 gene, associated with fragile X syndrome, has recently been cloned and the sequence of partial cDNA clones is known. We have determined additional cDNA sequences both at the 5' and 3' end.

Fragile X Messenger Ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMR1), a novel inhibitor of osteoblast/osteocyte differentiation, regulates bone formation, mass, and strength in young and aged male and female mice

open access: yesBone Research, 2023
Fragile X Messenger Ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMR1) gene mutations lead to fragile X syndrome, cognitive disorders, and, in some individuals, scoliosis and craniofacial abnormalities. Four-month-old (mo) male mice with deletion of the FMR1 gene exhibit a mild

Defining the role of FMR1 gene in unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Assist Reprod Genet, 2019
Recurrent spontaneous abortion is a multifactorial disorder and till date, various factors have been attributed in its pathogenesis. Still, approximately 50% of RSA cases remain unexplained. Premutation (PM) expanded allele of fragile-X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene is known to contribute to ovarian dysfunction in 20% of the cases.

Precision Sensorimotor Control in Aging FMR1 Gene Premutation Carriers. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Integr Neurosci, 2019
Individuals with premutation alleles of the FMR1 gene are at risk of developing fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS), a neurodegenerative condition affecting sensorimotor function. Information on quantitative symptom traits associated with aging in premutation carriers is needed to clarify neurodegenerative processes contributing to ...

CRISPR to the Rescue: Advances in Gene Editing for the FMR1 Gene [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2019
Gene-editing using Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) is promising as a potential therapeutic strategy for many genetic disorders. CRISPR-based therapies are already being assessed in clinical trials, and evaluation of this technology in Fragile X syndrome has been performed by a number of groups. The findings from these

The generation of a conditional Fmr1 knock out mouse model to study Fmrp function in vivo

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2006
The FMR1 gene, mutated in Fragile X syndrome patients, has been modeled in mice with a neomycin cassette inserted in exon 5 of the mouse Fmr1 gene creating an Fmr1 knockout (Fmr1 KO) allele.
