Tissue-specific and repeat length-dependent somatic instability of the X-linked dystonia parkinsonism-associated CCCTCT repeat

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2022
X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP) is a progressive adult-onset neurodegenerative disorder caused by insertion of a SINE-VNTR-Alu (SVA) retrotransposon in the TAF1 gene.

Development of parkinsonism after long-standing cervical dystonia – A cohort [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
INTRODUCTION: Dystonia occurring in the context of parkinsonism is well-known, e.g. as foot dystonia in young-onset Parkinson's disease (PD), anterocollis in multisystem atrophy (MSA) or blepharospasm (levator inhibition) in progressive supranuclear ...

Transcriptional Alterations in X-Linked Dystonia–Parkinsonism Caused by the SVA Retrotransposon

open access: yes, 2022
X-linked dystonia–parkinsonism (XDP) is a severe neurodegenerative disorder that manifests as adult-onset dystonia combined with parkinsonism. A SINE-VNTR-Alu (SVA) retrotransposon inserted in an intron of the TAF1 gene reduces its expression and ...

Cost-Analysis of the Different Treatment Modalities in X-Linked Dystonia–Parkinsonism

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
Background: X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP) is a debilitating disease endemic in the Philippines. Several oral medications as well as botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) injection and deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery appear to be the cornerstone of ...

Phenomenology of "Lubag" or X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism

open access: yes, 2002
X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP), or Lubag syndrome, is known to cause progressive dystonia, with or without parkinsonism, among Filipino male adults with maternal roots from the Philippine island of Panay.

Depression in X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism: A case-control study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP), also known as lubag, was originally described as endemic to Panay, Philippines [ [1] ]. XDP demonstrates a primary and progressive neuronal degeneration of the striatum and is characterized by an adult-onset movement

Psychomotor impairments and therapeutic implications revealed by a mutation associated with infantile Parkinsonism-Dystonia

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Parkinson disease (PD) is a progressive, neurodegenerative disorder affecting over 6.1 million people worldwide. Although the cause of PD remains unclear, studies of highly penetrant mutations identified in early-onset familial parkinsonism have ...

Differential Response of Dystonia and Parkinsonism following Globus Pallidus Internus Deep Brain Stimulation in X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (Lubag)

open access: yes, 2010
<i>Background:</i> X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP; DYT3; Lubag) is an adult-onset hereditary progressive dystonia/parkinsonism which is typically minimally responsive to pharmacological treatment.

Non-invasive detection of allele-specific CRISPR-SaCas9-KKH disruption of TOR1A DYT1 allele in a xenograft mouse model

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids
DYT1 dystonia is a neurological movement disorder characterized by a dominant 3-base pair deletion (ΔGAG) in the TOR1A gene. This study demonstrates a gene-editing approach that selectively targets the ΔGAG mutation in the TOR1A DYT1 allele while ...
