Fibroblast phenotype in male carriers of FMR1 premutation alleles [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2010
Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is an adult-onset neurodegenerative disorder among carriers of premutation expansions (55-200 CGG repeats) of the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene.

Phenobarbital use and neurological problems in FMR1 premutation carriers [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroToxicology, 2016
Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by a CGG expansion in the FMR1 gene located at Xq27.3. Patients with the premutation in FMR1 present specific clinical problems associated with the number of CGG repeats (55-200 CGG repeats)

Health Profiles of Mosaic Versus Non-mosaic FMR1 Premutation Carrier Mothers of Children With Fragile X Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
The FMR1 premutation is of increasing interest to the FXS community, as questions about a primary premutation phenotype warrant research attention. 100 FMR1 premutation carrier mothers (mean age = 58; 67–138 CGG repeats) of adults with fragile X syndrome

Implications of the FMR1 Premutation for Children, Adolescents, Adults, and Their Families [PDF]

open access: yesPediatrics, 2017
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Given the nature of FMR1 gene expansions, most biological mothers, and often multiple other family members of children with fragile X syndrome (FXS), will have a premutation, which may ...

Neuroimaging Insight Into Fragile X-Associated Neuropsychiatric Disorders: Literature Review

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Language dysfluencies in females with the FMR1 premutation [PDF]

open access: yesBrain and Cognition, 2013
Recent evidence suggests that there are age-related neurocognitive implications for fragile X premutation carriers, including deficits in executive function, and that such deficits are more common in male than female premutation carriers. The purpose of the current study is to examine one aspect of executive function, language dysfluencies, in a group ...
