Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) and the Spinal Sensory System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The purpose of this chapter is to discuss the role of the fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) in the spinal sensory system and the potential for use of the mouse model of fragile X syndrome to better understand some aspects of the human syndrome as well as advance knowledge in other areas of investigation, such as pain amplification, an ...

Oligomerization properties of fragile-X mental-retardation protein (FMRP) and the fragile-X-related proteins FXR1P and FXR2P [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1999
The absence of fragile-X mental-retardation protein (FMRP) results in fragile-X syndrome. Two other fragile-X-related (FXR) proteins have been described, FXR1P and FXR2P, which are both very similar in amino acid sequence to FMRP. Interaction between the three proteins as well as with themselves has been demonstrated.

The molecular basis of the Fragile X syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Experimental and Molecular Biology, 2023
This analysis aimed to clarify the molecular basis of fragile X syndrome and explain the role of genetic material in the genetic disease's development and treatment. Fragile X syndrome is an X-linked mutation inheritance disorder.

Cellular stress-induced up-regulation of FMRP promotes cell survival by modulating PI3K-Akt phosphorylation cascades [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most commonly inherited mental retardation and single gene cause of autistic spectrum disorder, occurs when the Fmr1 gene is mutated.

An Autopsy Case With Fragile X‐Associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome Presenting Intranuclear Inclusion Bodies Mainly in the Limbic System

open access: yesNeuropathology, Volume 46, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Fragile X‐associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a late onset and slow progression caused by a premutation (55–200 CGG repeat) in the fragile X mental retardation (FMR1) gene. Here, we report the case of a Japanese patient with FXTAS which is the first case autopsied in Japan. The patient was

Fragile X-Associated Neuropsychiatric Disorders (FXAND)

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2018
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is caused by the full mutation (>200 CGG repeats) in the Fragile X Mental Retardation 1 (FMR1) gene. It is the most common inherited cause of intellectual disability (ID) and autism.

FMRP regulates STAT3 mRNA localization to cellular protrusions and local translation to promote hepatocellular carcinoma metastasis

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Shen et al. propose a mechanism for the metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells through the localization and translation modulation of the STAT3 oncogene by fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP).

Premutation in the Fragile X Mental Retardation 1 (FMR1) Gene Affects Maternal Zn-milk and Perinatal Brain Bioenergetics and Scaffolding. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Fragile X premutation alleles have 55-200 CGG repeats in the 5' UTR of the FMR1 gene. Altered zinc (Zn) homeostasis has been reported in fibroblasts from >60 years old premutation carriers, in which Zn supplementation significantly restored Zn ...

Low‐dose lithium supplementation promotes musculoskeletal and metabolic health in ovariectomized female mice

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 7, Page 2845-2866, 1 April 2026.
Abstract figure legend Low‐dose lithium supplementation in ovariectomized mice enhances skeletal muscle contractility (isometric force and fatigue resistance), SERCA function and promotes favourable transcriptional reprogramming, while increasing bone density and modestly improving insulin sensitivity.
