Evidence for a fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 ( FMR1 ) mRNA gain‐of‐function toxicity mechanism contributing to the pathogenesis of fragile X‐associated premature ovarian insufficiency [PDF]
Abstract Fragile X‐associated premature ovarian insufficiency (FXPOI) is among a family of disorders caused by expansion of a CGG trinucleotide repeat sequence located in the 5′ untranslated region (UTR) of the fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 (FMR1) gene on the X chromosome.

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).

Long Noncoding RNA Can Be a Probable Mechanism and a Novel Target for Diagnosis and Therapy in Fragile X Syndrome [PDF]
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common congenital hereditary disease of low intelligence after Down syndrome. Its main pathogenic gene is fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene associated with intellectual disability, autism, and fragile X ...

FMRpolyG accumulates in FMR1 premutation granulosa cells
Background Fragile X premutation (Amplification of CGG number 55–200) is associated with increased risk for fragile X-Associated Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (FXPOI) in females and fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) predominantly in ...

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

Reproductive and gynecologic care of women with fragile X primary ovarian insufficiency (FXPOI) [PDF]
Abstract Objective: Approximately 20% of women with a premutation in the FMR1 gene experience primary ovarian insufficiency (POI). We explored diagnostic patterns, frequency of appropriate hormone replacement, obstetric outcomes,

Predictors of Comorbid Conditions in Women Who Carry an FMR1 Premutation [PDF]
Purpose: Women who carry an FMR1 premutation (PM) can experience two well-established PM-associated disorders: fragile X-associated primary ovarian insufficiency (FXPOI, affects ~20–30% carriers) and fragile X-associated tremor-ataxia syndrome (FXTAS ...

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.
