Altered expression of fragile X mental retardation-1 (FMR1) in the thymus in autoimmune myasthenia gravis

open access: yesJournal of Neuroinflammation, 2021
Predisposition to autoimmunity and inflammatory disorders is observed in patients with fragile X-associated syndromes. These patients have increased numbers of CGG triplets in the 5’ UTR region of FMR1 (Fragile X Mental Retardation 1) gene, that affects ...

Data‐Driven Insights into Hyperkinetic Disorders in Neurodevelopmental Syndromes and Epileptic Encephalopathies

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Childhood‐onset hyperkinetic movement disorders occur in a range of genetic conditions. Recently, there has been an increase in recognition of hyperkinetic movement disorders, mainly dystonia, chorea and dyskinesia, with monogenic conditions associated with neurodevelopmental delay (NDD) and also with developmental and epileptic ...

FMR1 Epigenetic Silencing Commonly Occurs in Undifferentiated Fragile X-Affected Embryonic Stem Cells

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2014
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common heritable form of cognitive impairment. It results from epigenetic silencing of the X-linked FMR1 gene by a CGG expansion in its 5′-untranslated region.

Frequency of ZFHX3‐Mediated Spinocerebellar Ataxia 4 in a US Undiagnosed Ataxia Cohort

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Spinocerebellar ataxia 4 (SCA4) is a late‐onset dominant ataxia with neuropathy caused by exonic GGC repeat expansion in the ZFHX3 gene thought to originate from a Swedish founder event. The GC‐rich expansion is highly thermodynamically stable, posing challenges for standard clinical genetic testing methods.

Unraveling in vitro phase separation and aggregation properties of the structured region of FMRP and the impact of Fragile X syndrome‐linked mutations

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
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

Epigenetic characterization of the FMR1 gene and aberrant neurodevelopment in human induced pluripotent stem cell models of fragile X syndrome.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common inherited cause of intellectual disability. In addition to cognitive deficits, FXS patients exhibit hyperactivity, attention deficits, social difficulties, anxiety, and other autistic-like behaviors.

Autonomic Function in Fragile X Syndrome: A Systematic Review

open access: yesJournal of Intellectual Disability Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a monogenic X‐linked cause of intellectual disability and autism. Individuals with FXS often have high levels of anxiety and sometimes display challenging behaviours. Autonomic dysfunction has been suggested to be one physiological mechanism that may contribute to these.

The role of FMR1 gene and autoimmunity in infertility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Introduction: The importance of genetic polymorphisms and autoimmune factors in infertility is still uncertain. The long arm of chromosome X is important in the control of functional ovarian reserve and the FMR1 gene at Xq17.3 is known to be associated ...

Social cognition in children and adolescents with fragile X syndrome: A comparison with individuals with autism symptoms and typical development

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Most individuals with fragile X syndrome (FXS) exhibit symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), suggesting a substantial overlap in social cognitive profiles. This cross‐sectional study aimed to explore social cognitive abilities in children and adolescents with FXS in comparison with an age‐matched heterogeneous ASD group and typically ...
