Proteomic analysis of X-linked dystonia parkinsonism disease striatal neurons reveals altered RNA metabolism and splicing [PDF]

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease
Summary: X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP) is a rare neurodegenerative disease endemic to the Philippines. The genetic cause for XDP is an insertion of a SINE-VNTR-Alu (SVA)-type retrotransposon within intron 32 of TATA-binding protein associated ...

Validation of a Questionnaire for Distinguishing X-Linked Dystonia Parkinsonism From Its Mimics [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
Objectives: X-linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP) is a neurodegenerative movement disorder endemic to the island of Panay in the Philippines. We undertook a population-based prevalence study to enumerate all cases of XDP in Panay.

Establishing a natural history of X-linked dystonia parkinsonism. [PDF]

open access: yesBrain Commun, 2023
Abstract X-linked dystonia parkinsonism is a neurodegenerative movement disorder that affects men whose mothers originate from the island of Panay, Philippines. Current evidence indicates that the most likely cause is an expansion in the TAF1 gene that may be amenable to treatment. To prepare for clinical trials of therapeutic candidates

Transcriptional Alterations in X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism Caused by the SVA Retrotransposon. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci, 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 ...

X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism: over and above a repeat disorder. [PDF]

open access: yesMed Genet, 2021
Abstract X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP) is an adult-onset neurodegenerative movement disorder, caused by a founder retrotransposon insertion in an intron of the TAF1 gene. This insertion contains a polymorphic hexanucleotide repeat (CCCTCT)n, the length of which inversely correlates with the age at disease onset (AAO) and other ...

X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism: recent advances. [PDF]

open access: yesCurr Opin Neurol, 2019
Purpose of review Our understanding of X-Linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (XDP) has advanced considerably in recent years because of a wealth of new data describing its genetic basis, cellular phenotypes, neuroimaging features, and response to deep brain stimulation (DBS). This review provides a concise summary of these studies.
