Clinical Development of Targeted Fragile X Syndrome Treatments: An Industry Perspective
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the leading known cause of inherited intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder. It is caused by a mutation of the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene, resulting in a deficit of fragile X mental retardation ...

Pharmacological rescue of adult hippocampal neurogenesis in a mouse model of X-linked intellectual disability [PDF]
Oligophrenin-1 (OPHN1) is a Rho GTPase activating protein whose mutations cause X-linked intellectual disability (XLID). How loss of function of Ophnl affects neuronal development is only partly understood.
