Anxiety disorders in fragile X premutation carriers: Preliminary characterization of probands and non-probands [PDF]
A very high proportion of individuals with fragile X syndrome (FXS) (FMR1 full mutation, > 200 CGG repeats) experience clinically significant anxiety.

Premutation Females with preFXTAS
Fragile-X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder associated with the FMR1 gene premutation, characterized by the presence of 55 to 200 CGG triplet repeat expansions. Although the initial symptoms of FXTAS typically manifest in males around the age of 60 with motor symptoms and cognitive deficits, the ...

The high frequency of the fragile X premutation in the general population and its emerging neurocognitive implications highlight the need to investigate the effects of the premutation on lifespan cognitive development.

Conversion disorder in women with the FMR1 premutation [PDF]
AbstractWomen with fragile X mental retardation (FMR1) gene premutations (55–200 CGG repeats) were until recently believed to be unaffected. It is now known that up to 8% of older female FMR1 premutation carriers develop fragile X‐associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS). Female carriers may also develop primary ovarian insufficiency, thyroid disease,

BC RNA Mislocalization in the Fragile X Premutation [PDF]
AbstractFragile X premutation disorder is caused by CGG triplet repeat expansions in the 5′ untranslated region of FMR1 mRNA. The question of how expanded CGG repeats cause disease is a subject of continuing debate. Our work indicates that CGG-repeat structures compete with regulatory BC1 RNA for access to RNA transport factor hnRNP A2.

The role of AGG interruptions in the transcription of FMR1 premutation alleles.
Fragile X associated disorders are caused by a premutation allele in the fragile X mental retardation 1 gene (FMR1) and are hypothesized to result from the toxic effect of elevated levels of expanded FMR1 transcripts.

Evaluation of the role of FMR1 CGG repeat allele in Parkinson’s disease from the Chinese population
ObjectiveThere is controversial evidence that FMR1 premutation or “gray zone” (GZ) allele (small CGG expansion, 45–54 repeats) was associated with Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Tophaceous gout of the nose in a male FMR1 premutation carrier
Premutation alleles with 55–200 CGG repeats in FMR1 can lead to fragile X‐associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS). In this case study, we report uncontrolled gout in a 68‐year‐old male with FXTAS with multiple sites of involvement including a rare ...

Abstract Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and early menopause (EM) affect millions of women worldwide. Compared with normal menopause, they confer a longer duration of estrogen deficiency and are associated not only with a shorter lifespan, but with a reduced healthspan, owing to an increased risk of cardiovascular, skeletal, cognitive and ...
