A mouse model of the fragile X premutation: Effects on behavior, dendrite morphology, and regional rates of cerebral protein synthesis

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2011
Carriers of FMR1 premutation alleles have 55–200 CGG repeats in the 5′ untranslated region of the gene. These individuals are at risk for fragile X associated primary ovarian insufficiency (females) and, in late life, fragile X associated tremor and ...

High‐Performance Piezoelectric Nanogenerators Based on Wurtzite BeO Nanowire Arrays

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates high‐performance piezoelectric nanogenerators based on 1D BeO nanowire arrays. The BeO nanowires exhibit a high piezoelectric coefficient (∼15.8 pm V−1) and deliver an output voltage of ∼26.1 V and power density of ∼0.32 µW cm−2.

Fragile X founder effect and distribution of CGG repeats among the mentally retarded population of Andalusia, South Spain

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2002
Fragile X syndrome is the most common inherited form of mental retardation. We investigated the prevalence of the Fragile X syndrome in the population with mental retardation of unknown etiology in Andalusia, South Spain.

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.

Dynamic Disulfide Ionogels for Self‐Healing, Transparent, and Elastic E‐Skins

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A dynamic covalent ionogel is designed via polymer–ionic liquid interaction control. The interplay between ionic liquid compatibility, viscosity, and concentration governs polymer segmental dynamics, which in turn regulates disulfide exchange kinetics and mechanical durability.

Pathological Plasticity in Fragile X Syndrome

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2012
Deficits in neuronal plasticity are common hallmarks of many neurodevelopmental disorders. In the case of fragile-X syndrome (FXS), disruption in the function of a single gene, FMR1, results in a variety of neurological consequences directly related to ...

Tunable Quasi‐Resonances in Polypyrrole Nanodisks

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Polaronic carrier absorption enables electrochemically switchable quasi‐resonances in conducting polymer nanoantennas. ABSTRACT Redox‐tunable conducting polymers have emerged as promising materials for dynamic plasmonics and metasurfaces. However, only a few conducting polymers with particularly high conductivities (>1000 S/cm) have been reported to ...

Neurocognitive endophenotypes in CGG KI and Fmr1 KO mouse models of Fragile X-Associated disorders: an analysis of the state of the field [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/2mk]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2013
It has become increasingly important that the field of behavioral genetics identifies not only the gross behavioral phenotypes associated with a given mutation, but also the behavioral endophenotypes that scale with the dosage of the particular mutation ...

Highly Crystalline CsPbBr3 Thin Films With Amplified Spontaneous Emission via High‐Pressure Recrystallization

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
High‐pressure recrystallization provides a reproducible route to high‐quality CsPbBr3${\rm CsPbBr}_{3}$ thin films. Optimized processing at 300 bar yields smooth, pinhole‐free, single‐phase 3D perovskite layers with tunable thickness, enhanced crystallinity, reduced amplified‐spontaneous‐emission threshold, improved photostability, and phase‐transition

Piezoresistivity Enhancement by Graphite Flake Alignment in Thin Composite Films for Dielectric Elastomer Switches

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article presents dielectric elastomer switch (DES) materials, based on composite thin films. Alignment of graphite flakes due to their physical confinement within the thin films lead to much stronger piezoresistive responses than bulk composites, while their durability exceeds that of conventional liquid‐based DES materials.
