Novel HUWE1‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder: Genotypic and Phenotypic Expansion
This study highlights novel HUWE1 variants that expand the genetic and clinical spectrum of neurodevelopmental disorders, establishing the essential role of the HECT domain in disease mechanism. ABSTRACT Background The HUWE1 gene plays a crucial role in mediating embryonic development as well as the differentiation and proliferation of neural cells ...

Fragile X Syndrome and Targeted Treatments
Many targeted treatment studies have been carried out in individuals with Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) guided by animal studies from the Fragile X Mental Retardation 1 (FMR1) knock out (KO) mice and the fragile X Drosophila studies.

Effects of mavoglurant on visual attention and pupil reactivity while viewing photographs of faces in Fragile X Syndrome. [PDF]
BackgroundNumerous preclinical studies have supported the theory that enhanced activation of mGluR5 signaling, due to the absence or reduction of the FMR1 protein, contributes to cognitive and behavioral deficits in patients with fragile X syndrome (FXS).

Astrocyte Senescence Impairs Synaptogenesis due to Thrombospondin‐1 Loss
Senescent hippocampal astrocytes lose TSP secretion, impairing excitatory synaptogenesis via the α2δ‐1 pathway. Restoring TSP‐1 rescues synaptic formation, revealing the contribution of astrocyte senescence to age‐related hippocampal synaptic decline.

Voltage-independent SK-channel dysfunction causes neuronal hyperexcitability in the hippocampus of Fmr1 knock-out mice [PDF]
Neuronal hyperexcitability is one of the major characteristics of fragile X syndrome (FXS), yet the molecular mechanisms of this critical dysfunction remain poorly understood. Here we report a major role of voltage-independent potassium (

Purkinje cell-specific Grip1/2 knockout mice show increased repetitive self-grooming and enhanced mGluR5 signaling in cerebellum [PDF]
Cerebellar Purkinje cell (PC) loss is a consistent pathological finding in autism. However, neural mechanisms of PC-dysfunction in autism remain poorly characterized.

Sulphur Analogues of Homoisoflavonoids as Potential Treatments for Neovascular Eye Diseases
Neovascular eye diseases are characterised by the abnormal growth of often fragile blood vessels in the eye. Treatment focuses on reducing angiogenesis as well as reducing oxidative stress induced inflammation, a key underlying cause. Synthetic sulphur analogues of naturally occurring homoisoflavonoids, synthesised in three steps, have shown promise as
