Hyperglycemic Hyperosmolar State as the Initial Presentation of Wolfram Syndrome: A Common Complication Revealing a Rare Disease—A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
MRI brain revealing features consistent with central diabetes insipidus (Figure A), pontine atrophy (Figure B), and bilateral optic nerve atrophy (Figure C) in a young, non‐autoimmune diabetic patient: imaging clue to Wolfram syndrome. ABSTRACT Wolfram syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by diabetes insipidus, diabetes ...

No association of mutations and mRNA expression of WFS1/wolframin with bipolar disorder in humans

open access: yesNeuroscience Letters, 2003
Association of WFS1 (wolframin) and bipolar disorder has been suggested by psychiatric manifestations in patients or non-symptomatic carriers of Wolfram disease and linkage of bipolar disorder with 4p16, the locus of WFS1. Five studies of WFS1 in bipolar disorder did not support this association, although possible association of several missense ...

Multiomic analysis on human cell model of wolfram syndrome reveals changes in mitochondrial morphology and function

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2021
Background Wolfram syndrome (WFS) is a rare autosomal recessive syndrome in which diabetes mellitus and neurodegenerative disorders occur as a result of Wolframin deficiency and increased ER stress.

Autosomal Recessive Cerebellar Ataxias: Translating Genes to Therapies

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 448-470, September 2025.
[Color figure can be viewed at www.annalsofneurology.org] Autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxias are disabling neurodegenerative genetic conditions affecting balance and coordination. Advancements in genomic testing have improved diagnosis, leading to a new focus on the development of targeted precision therapeutics addressing cellular, biochemical ...

Wolframin-1-expressing neurons in the entorhinal cortex propagate tau to CA1 neurons and impair hippocampal memory in mice

open access: yes, 2021
Abnormally phosphorylated tau, an early neuropathologic marker of Alzheimer’s disease (AD), first occurs in the brain’s entorhinal cortex layer II (ECII) and then spreads to the CA1 field of the hippocampus.

Structural development and dorsoventral maturation of the medial entorhinal cortex

open access: yeseLife, 2016
We investigated the structural development of superficial-layers of medial entorhinal cortex and parasubiculum in rats. The grid-layout and cholinergic-innervation of calbindin-positive pyramidal-cells in layer-2 emerged around birth while reelin ...

Compound genetic etiology in a patient with a syndrome including diabetes, intellectual deficiency and distichiasis

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2022
Background We studied a young woman with atypical diabetes associated with mild intellectual disability, lymphedema distichiasis syndrome (LDS) and polymalformative syndrome including distichiasis.

Could R‐Ketamine and Wolfram Syndrome Inform Understanding of Depression and Suicidality? A Sigma‐1 Receptor‐Based Perspective

open access: yesHuman Psychopharmacology: Clinical and Experimental, Volume 40, Issue 5, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Loss of function mutations in the WFS1 gene cause Wolfram syndrome, which is characterized by juvenile‐onset diabetes mellitus, diabetes insipidus, neurodegeneration, hearing loss and optic nerve atrophy. Psychiatric symptoms, including major depression and suicidal behavior, are common in this disorder.

The role of Wolframin in the pathogenesis of Wolfram or Didmoad syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The Wolfram Syndrome (WS) is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder characterised by insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and bilateral progressive optic atrophy. Manifestations in neural and neuroendocrine tissues generally arise, but are not a requirement for diagnosis.

A mutant wfs1 zebrafish model of Wolfram syndrome manifesting visual dysfunction and developmental delay

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Wolfram syndrome (WS) is an ultra-rare progressive neurodegenerative disorder defined by early-onset diabetes mellitus and optic atrophy. The majority of patients harbour recessive mutations in the WFS1 gene, which encodes for Wolframin, a transmembrane ...
