An Optimized Diagnostic Approach for Adults With Suspected Inherited Metabolic Disorders

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 5, September 2026.
A multidisciplinary strategy that integrates deep phenotyping with expert genetic interpretation substantially increases the likelihood of reaching a diagnosis in adults suspected of having an IMD. ABSTRACT Inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) arise from defects in metabolic pathways essential for normal biochemical function.

X-Linked Mental Retardation with Seizures and Carrier Manifestations Is Caused by a Mutation in the Creatine-Transporter Gene (SLC6A8) Located in Xq28 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A family with X-linked mental retardation characterized by severe mental retardation, speech and behavioral abnormalities, and seizures in affected male patients has been found to have a G1141C transversion in the creatine-transporter gene SLC6A8.

Epigenetic‐Based Evidence for Distinct Effects of Age, Sex, and Experience in Developmental Critical Period Learning

open access: yesDevelopmental Neurobiology, Volume 86, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Although much is known about the encoding of experience, how the brain organizes neural circuits capable of learning and memory formation is largely unstudied. Canonical critical periods emerge from a convergence of maturation‐ and experience‐dependent processes.

Creatine transporter deficiency: Novel mutations and functional studies

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2016
X-linked cerebral creatine deficiency (MIM 300036) is caused by deficiency of the creatine transporter encoded by the SLC6A8 gene. Here we report three patients with this condition from Israel.

Conservation Status of Two Italian Local Poultry Breeds: Faraona Camosciata and Oca Padovana

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The present study aimed to assess the conservation status and characterize the phenotypic and genomic diversity of two endangered Italian poultry genetic resources to guide their conservation plans. Blood samples and morphometric data were collected on 50 Faraona Camosciata (FAC, Numida meleagris) and 50 Oca Padovana (OPD, Anser anser) adult ...

Endogenously generated Dutch‐type Aβ non‐fibrillar aggregates dysregulate presynaptic neurotransmission in the absence of detectable inflammation

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND APPE693Q (“Dutch”) transgenic mice develop aging‐related learning deficits and accumulate endogenously generated non‐fibrillar aggregates (NFAs) of amyloid beta (Aβ) and amyloid precursor protein α‐carboxy terminal fragments. NFA‐Aβ correlates with synaptic loss and memory deficits more closely than does fibrillar Aβ.

Characterization of novel SLC6A8 variants with the use of splice-site analysis tool and implementation of a newly developed LOVD database [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The X-linked creatine transporter defect is caused by mutations in the SLC6A8 gene. Until now, 66 synonymous and intronic variants in SLC6A8 were detected in our laboratory.

Carrier screening in the reproductive setting—Are there medical implications for the heterozygote?—A guide for clinicians

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

AGAT, GAMT and SLC6A8 distribution in the central nervous system, in relation to creatine deficiency syndromes: A review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Summary: Creatine deficiency syndromes, either due to AGAT, GAMT or SLC6A8 deficiencies, lead to a complete absence, or a very strong decrease, of creatine within the brain, as measured by magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Spatial metabolomics highlights metabolic reprogramming in acute myeloid leukemia mice through creatine pathway

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is recognized as an aggressive cancer that is characterized by significant metabolic reprogramming. Here, we applied spatial metabolomics to achieve high-throughput, in situ identification of metabolites within the liver ...
