FXPOI: Pattern of AGG Interruptions Does Not Show an Association With Age at Amenorrhea Among Women With a Premutation [PDF]
Fragile X-associated primary ovarian insufficiency (FXPOI) occurs in about 20% of women who carry a premutation allele (55–200 CGG repeats). These women develop hypergonadotropic hypogonadism and have secondary amenorrhea before age 40.

Approaches to Identify Genetic Variants That Influence the Risk for Onset of Fragile X-Associated Primary Ovarian Insufficiency (FXPOI): A Preliminary Study [PDF]
Fragile X-associated primary ovarian insufficiency (FXPOI) is due to an X-linked mutation that results from the expansion of a CGG repeat sequence located in the 5' untranslated region of the FMR1 gene (premutation, PM).

Fragile X Associated Primary Ovarian Insufficiency (FXPOI): Case Report and Literature Review [PDF]
Abnormalities in the X-linked FMR1 gene are associated with a constellation of disorders, which have broad and profound implications for the person first diagnosed, and extended family members of all ages.

Clinical implications of somatic allele expansion in female FMR1 premutation carriers [PDF]
Carriers of a premutation allele (PM) in the FMR1 gene are at risk of developing a number of Fragile X premutation asssociated disorders (FXPAC), including Fragile X-associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS), Fragile X-associated Primary Ovarian ...

FMR1 allelic complexity in premutation carriers provides no evidence for a correlation with age at amenorrhea [PDF]
Background Premutations in the Fragile X Messenger Ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMR1) gene, defined as between 55 and 200 CGGs, have been implicated in fragile X-associated primary ovarian insufficiency (FXPOI).

Correlation of FMR4 expression levels to ovarian reserve markers in FMR1 premutation carriers [PDF]
Background Fragile X-associated primary ovarian insufficiency (FXPOI), characterized by amenorrhea before age 40 years, occurs in 20% of female FMR1 premutation carriers. Presently, there are no molecular or biomarkers that can help predicting which FMR1

Insight and Recommendations for Fragile X-Premutation-Associated Conditions from the Fifth International Conference on FMR1 Premutation [PDF]
The premutation of the fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMR1) gene is characterized by an expansion of the CGG trinucleotide repeats (55 to 200 CGGs) in the 5’ untranslated region and increased levels of FMR1 mRNA. Molecular mechanisms leading to

Social and physical predictors of mental health impact in adult women who have an FMR1 premutation [PDF]
Purpose: Clear understanding of mental health phenotypes and associated socioeconomic, physical health and well-being impacts in adult women with an FMR1 premutation (PM) is needed for counseling and primary healthcare.

An escalating continuum of learning and attention difficulties from premutation to full mutation in female carriers of FMR1 expansion [PDF]
ObjectiveCarriers of Fragile X premutation may have associated medical comorbidities, such as Fragile X-associated tremor and ataxia (FXTAS) and Fragile X-associated premature ovarian insufficiency (FXPOI). We examined the Fragile X premutation effect on
