Enhanced expression of ADCY1 underlies aberrant neuronal signalling and behaviour in a syndromic autism model

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a leading cause of autism and neurons lacking FMRP show aberrant mRNA translation and intracellular signalling. Here, the authors show that neurons from Fmr1 knockout mice have increased levels of ADCY1 protein, producing ...

Fragile X and autism: Intertwined at the molecular level leading to targeted treatments

open access: yesMolecular Autism, 2010
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is caused by an expanded CGG repeat (> 200 repeats) in the 5' untranslated portion of the fragile mental retardation 1 gene (FMR1), leading to deficiency or absence of the FMR1 protein (FMRP).

Pilot Evaluation of the Biopsychosocial Screening Inventory for Fragile X Syndrome (BIPSSI-FX) with an Extended African American Family.

open access: yesJournal of theory construction & testing, 2012
This study examined the internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and concurrent validity of a parent-screening tool for Fragile X Syndrome (FXS). A mixed methods design guided this investigation of African American primary caregivers and children.

Epigenetic characterization of the FMR1 gene and aberrant neurodevelopment in human induced pluripotent stem cell models of fragile X syndrome.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common inherited cause of intellectual disability. In addition to cognitive deficits, FXS patients exhibit hyperactivity, attention deficits, social difficulties, anxiety, and other autistic-like behaviors.

Reversal of fragile X phenotypes by manipulation of AβPP/Aβ levels in Fmr1KO mice.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common form of inherited intellectual disability and the leading known genetic cause of autism. Fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP), which is absent or expressed at substantially reduced levels in FXS, binds ...

Sex Differences in an Fmr1 Knock-out Mouse Model of Fragile X Syndrome

open access: yes, 2020
Possessing a single X-chromosome, fragile X syndrome (FXS) occurs more frequently in males than females, and FXS males typically have more severe clinical symptoms than FXS females.

Autism Symptoms in Fragile X Syndrome

open access: yes, 2017
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is recognized as the most common genetic cause of intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Although symptoms of ASD are frequently observed in patients with FXS, researchers have not yet clearly determined ...

Clinical Characteristics of Fragile X Syndrome Patients in Japan [PDF]

open access: yes
[Background] Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a well-known X-linked disorder clinically characterized by intellectual disability and autistic features. However, diagnosed Japanese FXS cases have been fewer than expected, and clinical features of Japanese FXS ...

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Psychopathology is highly prevalent in adolescents and adults with several genetic syndromes associated with intellectual disability, including Williams syndrome (WS), fragile X syndrome (FXS) and Prader–Willi syndrome (PWS).
