X-linked recessive ichthyosis with X-linked retinoschisis in two brothers: a case report [PDF]
BackgroundX-linked ichthyosis (XLI) and X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS) are both inherited in an X-linked recessive manner. To date, no prior reports document both conditions’ simultaneous occurrence. This case presents two brothers who were diagnosed with

X chromosome inactivation, X-linked disorders, and cancer [PDF]
X chromosome inactivation is an essential process that compensates for gene dosage differences between men and women. During early embryogenesis, one of the two X chromosomes in females is randomly selected for transcriptional silencing, inactivating ...

Reclassification of the GRIA3 splice-site variant in an X-linked family with intellectual disability and psychiatric symptoms [PDF]
BackgroundThe GRIA3 gene is located on the X chromosome and encodes a subunit (GluR3) of the a-amino-3- hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid receptor (AMPAR). The pathogenic variants of GRIA3 are mostly associated with neurodevelopmental disorders.

Identifying genetic modifiers of age-associated penetrance in X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism
Age at onset of X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism is 50% explained by the length of a repeat in an SVA insert. The authors perform a GWAS for genetic modifiers and discover three more loci, accounting for another 13% of variability in age at onset with the ...

Decreased N-TAF1 expression in X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism patient-specific neural stem cells
X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP) is a hereditary neurodegenerative disorder involving a progressive loss of striatal medium spiny neurons. The mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration are not known, in part because there have been few cellular models ...

X-linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism patient cells exhibit altered signaling via nuclear factor-kappa B
X-linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (XDP) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease involving the loss of medium spiny neurons within the striatum. An XDP-specific haplotype has been identified, consisting of seven sequence variants which cluster around the ...
