Multifactorial analysis of the movement and the way in Rett syndrome

by

Reference: 4 Abstract: Rett syndrome (RTT) is a rare and complex factors for multiproblematicit? disabling. One of the main and most serious is the progressive loss of control of locomotor and gait, often affected by the presence of involuntary movements, dystonia, ataxia and spasticity. Only rarely treatment strategies used in the neuromotor pathologies infant may … Read more

Study of synaptic and neuronal physiological alterations in the MeCP2 gene deficient animals models of Rett syndrome

by

Reference: ANRn.a.6-NEURn.a.003 Abstract: PROJECT SUMMARY – Scientific Background and Objectives Mutations in the gene encoding the protein MeCP2, a transcriptional regulator binding methylated DNA, are causing neurological disorders – including Rett syndrome (RTT) – characterized by an apparently brain development normal. The mice with truncated versions of MeCP2 show similar neurological deficits in patients RTT. … Read more

Therapeutic approaches of Rett syndrome: development of human cell models and high-throughput screening of chemical molecules in order to identify new subtsances likely to induce readthrough of a stop codon

by

Reference: ANRn.a.6-MRARn.a.003 Abstract: Rett syndrome (RTT) is a neurodevelopmentale dominant X-linked disease affecting almost exclusively girls. Significant progress was the discovery of mutations in the MECP2 gene in over 90% of RTT patients. In recent years, we have developed a French consortium and determined the spectrum of mutations MECP2. We have shown that the four … Read more

Understand and address the deficits of neuronal transport in MeCP2-pathies

by

Reference: ANR-12n.a.003-BSV1 Abstract: The MeCP2-pathies represent a field of particularly dynamic and competitive research in the field of intellectual disabilities related to the X chromosome Rett syndrome (RTT) is the prototype of these diseases and account for 10% of cases of mental retardation of genetic origin in women. The causative gene is Mecp2 encoding a … Read more
