Rapidly Progressing Neurocognitive Disorder in a Male with FXTAS and Alzheimer's Disease. [PDF]
Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a neurodegenerative disorder that usually begins in the early 60s and affects carriers of premutation expansion (55-200 CGG repeats) of the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene.

Dietary and biomarker‐guided strategies as supportive measures in the fragile X syndrome
Abstract The fragile X syndrome (FXS) is an inherited neurodevelopmental disorder that primarily affects males, often resulting in an IQ below 55, while about two‐thirds of females also experience intellectual disability. Physical features may include an elongated face, prominent ears, finger joint laxity, and enlarged testes in males.

Composition of the Intranuclear Inclusions of Fragile X-associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome
Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with a premutation repeat expansion (55–200 CGG repeats) in the 5′ noncoding region of the FMR1 gene. Solitary intranuclear inclusions within FXTAS neurons and

Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder caused by a 55–200 CGG repeat expansion in the 5′ untranslated region of the Fragile X Mental Retardation 1 (FMR1) gene.

When R‐Loops Go Awry: Genome Instability and Neurological Diseases
DNA normally exists as a double helix formed by two complementary strands. During gene transcription, however, one strand of DNA can bind to RNA, causing the other DNA strand to be displaced. This creates a structure called an R‐loop. R‐loops play important roles in normal cellular processes such as gene expression, DNA replication, and transcription ...

Tremor, FXTAS and Klinefelter Syndrome [PDF]
Patients with Klinefelter syndrome have a higher prevalence of postural and action tremor that the general population, but are typically diagnosed before developing tremor. We here report a 68 year old patient diagnosed with Klinefelter syndrome while being tested for FXTAS and review the available literature on this subject.

3′UTR variants of ALS‐linked RNAs modify subcellular and cellular phenotypes
Our study demonstrates that alternative 3′UTR variants of ALS‐linked transcripts modulate subcellular RNA localization and cytoskeletal architecture. NEFH 3′UTR‐Long promotes nuclear RNA clustering, while SOD1 3′UTR‐Long reduces filopodia formation. These results suggest that 3′UTRs, independent of coding sequences, can influence neuronal phenotypes ...

Immune mediated disorders in women with a fragile X expansion and FXTAS [PDF]
Premutation alleles in fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) can cause the late-onset neurodegenerative disorder, fragile X-associated tremor ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) and/or the fragile X-associated primary ovarian insufficiency in approximately 20% of ...

Background and objectivesFragile X–associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a late-onset neurodegenerative disorder that affects carriers of the FMR1 premutation (55–200 CGG repeats). It is characterized by motor and cognitive impairments.
