WWOX P47T partial loss-of-function mutation induces epilepsy, progressive neuroinflammation, and cerebellar degeneration in mice phenocopying human SCAR12 [PDF]
WWOX gene loss-of-function (LoF) has been associated with neuropathologies resulting in developmental, epileptic, and ataxic phenotypes of varying severity based on the level of WWOX dysfunction. WWOX gene biallelic germline variant p.Pro47Thr (P47T) has been causally associated with a new form of autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia with epilepsy and

Neurological Disorders Associated with WWOX Germline Mutations—A Comprehensive Overview [PDF]
The transcriptional regulator WW domain-containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) is a key player in a number of cellular and biological processes including tumor suppression. Recent evidence has emerged associating WWOX with non-cancer disorders.

Neonatal neuronal WWOX gene therapy rescues Wwox null phenotypes [PDF]
WW domain‐containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) is an emerging neural gene‐regulating homeostasis of the central nervous system. Germline biallelic mutations in WWOX cause WWOX‐related epileptic encephalopathy (WOREE) syndrome and spinocerebellar ataxia and ...

WWOX-Related Neurodevelopmental Disorders: Models and Future Perspectives [PDF]
The WW domain-containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) gene was originally discovered as a putative tumor suppressor spanning the common fragile site FRA16D, but as time has progressed the extent of its pleiotropic function has become apparent.
