Retrotransposon: an insight into neurological disorders from perspectives of neurodevelopment and aging

open access: yesTranslational Neurodegeneration
Neurological disorders present considerable challenges in diagnosis and treatment due to their complex and diverse etiology. Retrotransposons are a type of mobile genetic element that are increasingly revealed to play a role in these diseases.

Phenotypic comparison between combined dystonia-parkinsonism and idiopathic adult-onset dystonia

open access: yes
The clinical characteristics of dystonia occurring in association with sporadic neurodegenerative parkinsonism have not been systematically explored or compared with those of idiopathic adult-onset dystonia.

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 ...

Network mechanisms in rapid-onset dystonia-parkinsonism [PDF]

open access: yes
Rapid-onset dystonia-parkinsonism (RDP) is a rare neurological disorder caused by mutations in the ATP1A3 gene. Symptoms are characterized by a dystonia-parkinsonism.

Myelin pathology is a key feature of X-linked Dystonia Parkinsonism

open access: yes
X-linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (XDP) is a progressive, adult-onset neurodegenerative movement disorder that predominantly affects males of Filipino descent 1-3 . The disease is caused by the insertion of a SINE-VNTR-Alu subfamily F (SVA_F) retrotransposon within an intron of the TATA-box binding ...

Tau isoform imbalance and aggregation are pathological hallmarks of X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism

open access: yes
Tauopathies encompass diverse neurodegenerative diseases unified by aberrant patterns of tau deposition in brain. Although most appear sporadic, some are linked to genetic etiologies that offer unique mechanistic insights.

Patterns and biomarkers of X-linked dystonia parkinsonism disease progression [PDF]

open access: yes
2024X-linked dystonia parkinsonism is a neurodegenerative movement disorder that originate from the island of Panay, Philippines. Though this is a relatively novel disease, efforts have been directed towards solving the etiology, which currently points ...

The genetics of primary dystonias and related disorders.

open access: yes, 2002
Dystonias are a heterogeneous group of disorders which are known to have a strong inherited basis. This review details recent advances in our understanding of the genetic basis of dystonias, including the primary dystonias, the 'dystonia-plus' syndromes ...

Mosaic divergent repeat interruptions of motif length and sequence, mDRILS, of XDP-linked repeats affect formation of DNA/RNA triplexes & quadruplexes.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
An inserted SINE-VNTR-Alu(AGAGGG)n repeat into the TAF1 gene is the cause of X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism. Mosaic divergent repeat interruptions affecting both motif length and sequence (mDRILS) of the canonical repeat (AGAGGG)n arise and can diminish ...
