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.

X-Linked Parkinsonism: Phenotypic and Genetic Heterogeneity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
X-linked parkinsonism encompasses rare heterogeneous disorders mainly inherited as a recessive trait, therefore being more prevalent in males. Recent developments have revealed a complex underlying panorama, including a spectrum of disorders in which ...

Targeting Myeloperoxidase to Reduce Neuroinflammation in X-Linked Dystonia Parkinsonism. [PDF]

open access: yesCNS Neurosci Ther
ABSTRACT Aims Although the genetic locus of X‐linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP), a neurodegenerative disease endemic in the Philippines, is well‐characterized, the exact mechanisms leading to neuronal loss are not yet fully understood.

The Effect of Glucocorticoids on TAF1 Gene Transcription in X-linked Dystonia Parkinsonism. [PDF]

open access: yesJ ASEAN Fed Endocr Soc, 2023
X-linked Dystonia Parkinsonism (XDP) is associated with a SINE-VNTR- Alu (SVA) retrotransposon insertion in an intron of the TAF1 gene that alters gene transcription and splicing. In this study, we determined if the SVA insertion introduces glucocorticoid (GC)-responsive cis-regulatory elements that may contribute to dysregulated TAF1 transcription and

Neuroinflammation and histone H3 citrullination are increased in X-linked Dystonia Parkinsonism post-mortem prefrontal cortex

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2020
Neuroinflammation plays a pathogenic role in neurodegenerative diseases and recent findings suggest that it may also be involved in X-linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (XDP) pathogenesis.

Oral diadochokinetic markers of X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism. [PDF]

open access: yesParkinsonism Relat Disord
X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP) is a neurodegenerative disorder that may result in severe speech impairment. The literature suggests that there are differences in the speech of individuals with XDP and healthy controls. This study aims to examine the motor speech characteristics of the mixed dystonia-parkinsonism phase of XDP.We extracted acoustic

Decreased N-TAF1 expression in X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism patient-specific neural stem cells

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2016
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

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2017
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 ...
