Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Quantification of GABAA Receptors in the Brain of Fragile X Patients. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Over the last several years, evidence has accumulated that the GABAA receptor is compromised in animal models for fragile X syndrome (FXS), a common hereditary form of intellectual disability.

Aging, Fragility and Reversibility Window in Bulk Alloy Glasses [PDF]

open access: yesJ. Phys. Condens. Matter, 17, L1-L7 (2005), 2007
Non-reversing relaxation enthalpies (DHnr) at glass transitions Tg(x) in the PxGexSe1-2x ternary display wide, sharp and deep global minima (~ 0) in the 0.09 < x < 0.145 range, within which Tgs become thermally reversing. In this reversibility window, glasses are found not to age, in contrast to aging observed for fragile glass compositions outside the

Fragile male, not fragile-X [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Psychiatric Treatment, 2008
No doubt the fragile-X chromosome plays a small part in male disadvantage, but the point made in my review ([Kraemer, 2000][1]), referred to by [Branney & White (2008)][2], is that the male is biologically less resilient.

Sensory Processing Phenotypes in Fragile X Syndrome

open access: yesASN Neuro, 2018
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that causes intellectual disability. It is a leading known genetic cause of autism. In addition to cognitive, social, and communication deficits, humans with FXS demonstrate abnormal sensory ...

From learning to memory: what flies can tell us about intellectual disability treatment.

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2015
Intellectual disability (ID), previously known as mental retardation, affects 3 % of the population and remains without pharmacological treatment. ID is characterized by impaired general mental abilities with associated defects in adaptive function in ...

Targeting fragile X.

open access: yesGenome biology, 2002
Ten years after the identification of the gene responsible for fragile X syndrome, recent studies have revealed a list of mRNAs bound by the fragile X gene product and have identified specific sequences required for the interaction between the fragile X protein and its targets.

Of Men and Mice: Modeling the Fragile X Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2018
The Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is one of the most common forms of inherited intellectual disability in all human societies. Caused by the transcriptional silencing of a single gene, the fragile x mental retardation gene FMR1, FXS is characterized by a ...
