Valproate, a mood stabilizer, induces WFS1 expression and modulates its interaction with ER stress protein GRP94. [PDF]
Valproate is a standard treatment for bipolar disorder and a first-line mood stabilizer. The molecular mechanisms underlying its actions in bipolar disorder are unclear.

Candidate gene studies reveal that the WFS1 gene joins the expanding list of novel type 2 diabetes genes [PDF]
Wolfram syndrome, originally described in 1938, is a rare, autosomal recessive disease that is characterised by young onset insulin-dependent diabetes, progressive sensorineural deafness, diabetes insipidus, autonomic nervous system dysfunction and, ultimately, brainstem atrophy and premature death [1]. The Wolfram gene (WFS1), which encodes wolframin,

The Impact of Mutations in Wolframin on Psychiatric Disorders
Wolfram Syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by early-onset diabetes mellitus, neurodegeneration, and psychological disorders. Mutations in the gene WFS1, coding for the protein wolframin, cause Wolfram Syndrome and are associated
