FXTAS Presents With Upregulation of the Cytokines IL12 and TNFα [PDF]

open access: yesParkinsonism and Related Disorders, 2021
Fragile X Tremor and Ataxia Syndrome is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that develops in some FMR1 premutation carriers. The objective of this study is to characterize how cytokine levels are altered in the FXTAS brain.Fresh frozen cerebellar tissue from FXTAS cases and controls was homogenized and analyzed for 12 different cytokines using a ...

The Emerging Molecular Mechanisms for Mitochondrial Dysfunctions in FXTAS

open access: yesBiochimica Et Biophysica Acta - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2020
Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is an inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expansion of 55-200 CGG repeats at 5UTR of FMR1 gene, known as premutation. The main clinical and neuropathological features of FXTAS include progressive intention tremor, gait ataxia, neuronal cell loss and presence of ubiquitin-positive ...

FXTAS

Neurology, 2012
Fragile X-associated tremor ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is defined by FMR1 premutation, cerebellar ataxia, intentional tremor, and middle cerebellar peduncle (MCP) hyperintensities. We delineate the clinical, neurophysiologic, and morphologic characteristics of FXTAS.Clinical, morphologic (brain MRI, (123)I-ioflupane SPECT), and neurophysiologic (tremor ...

The Epidemiology of FXTAS

2010
Recent epidemiological studies in the United States estimate the prevalence of the FMR1 premutation as ranging from 1/148 to 1/209 in women and from 1/290 to 1/468 in men, with greater variability in prevalence reported in studies internationally. Population studies investigating the prevalence of FXTAS in the general population have not been conducted

The variable phenotype of FXTAS

Neurology, 2005
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common inherited cause of mental retardation. It is caused by an expansion of a CGG trinucleotide repeat in the 5′ untranslated region of the fragile X mental retardation gene, the FMR1 gene, on the X chromosome to more than 200 repeats (full mutation).

Parkinsonism, FXTAS, and FMR1 premutations

Movement Disorders, 2004
AbstractThe presence of late‐onset neurological symptoms in male carriers of premutation expansions of the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene has been described recently. One of the clinical symptoms in this fragile X–associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is parkinsonism.
