Dissecting the Causal Mechanism of X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism by Integrating Genome and Transcriptome Assembly

open access: yes, 2017
X-linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (XDP) is a Mendelian neurodegenerative disease endemic to the Philippines. We integrated genome and transcriptome assembly with induced pluripotent stem cell-based modeling to identify the XDP causal locus and potential ...

Fibroblast Transcriptomics in Molecular Diagnostics of a Comprehensive Dystonia Cohort

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, Volume 99, Issue 6, Page 1363-1378, June 2026.
Objective Genomic sequencing leaves >50% of dystonia‐affected individuals without a diagnosis. Where DNA‐oriented approaches remain insufficient, integrating multiomics is essential to advance genome interpretation. Herein, we incorporated RNA sequencing (RNA‐seq) data from 167 patients with dystonia across a range of ages and presentations. Methods We

A novel family with an unusual early-onset generalized dystonia.

open access: yes, 2005
We report on an Italian family in which three brothers and their maternal grandfather had a generalized early-onset dystonia with mild parkinsonian signs.

DXS106 and DXS559 flank the X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism syndrome locus (DYT3).

open access: yes, 1994
The locus (DYT3) underlying the X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism syndrome (XDP) was delineated within proximal Xq12-Xq13.1 by analysis of linkage, allelic association, and haplotypes. Short tandem repeat polymorphisms at loci DXS227, DXS559, DXS453, DXS106,

Long-Term Outcomes of Bilateral Pallidal Deep Brain Stimulation for X-Linked Dystonia and Parkinsonism.

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: X-linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP) causes adult-onset progressive dystonia and parkinsonism, which may not respond to pharmacotherapy. OBJECTIVE: Previous case reports have reported beneficial effects from bilateral pallidal (GPi) deep ...

Reduced Neuron-Specific Expression of the TAF1 Gene Is Associated with X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism

open access: yes, 2007
X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP) is a movement disorder endemic to the Philippines. The disease locus, DYT3, has been mapped to Xq13.1. In a search for the causative gene, we performed genomic sequencing analysis, followed by expression analysis of ...

Association of Pallidal Neurostimulation and Outcome Predictors With X-linked Dystonia Parkinsonism. [PDF]

open access: yesJAMA Neurol, 2019
ImportanceAnecdotal evidence suggests that deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the internal globus pallidus (GPi) is effective in ameliorating dystonia in X-linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP), a disease that is usually refractive to medical therapy.ObjectiveTo determine the efficacy of GPi-DBS in a cohort of patients with XDP in a prospective study and ...

The roles of TAF1 in neuroscience and beyond

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science
The transcriptional machinery is essential for gene expression and regulation; dysregulation of transcription can result in a range of pathologies, including neurodegeneration, cancer, developmental disorders and cardiovascular disease.

Differential Effect of Helicobacter pylori Eradication on Time-Trends in Brady/Hypokinesia and Rigidity in Idiopathic Parkinsonism

open access: yes, 2010
Background: We examine the effect of eradicating Helicobacter in idiopathic parkinsonism (IP). Marked deterioration, where eradication-therapy failed, prompted an interim report in the first 20 probands to reach de-blinding.
