From Synaptopathies to System Dysfunction

Reference: Subproject to FZT 103 Abstract: This area of ??research focuses on genetic diseases that result in defects of synapse formation and function, which cause motor and cognitive deficits in Rett syndrome and as the associate autism.ᅠCause of Rett syndrome are encoded spontaneous mutations in X-linked MECP2 gene, the transcriptional regulator methyl-CpG binding protein 2 … Read more

DHPLC analysis of the MECP2 gene in Italian Rett patients

Reference: Abstract: Rett Syndrome (RTT) is an X-linked dominant neurodevelopmental disorder, which almost exclusively affects girls, with an estimated prevalence of one in 10,000-15,000 female births. Mutations in the methyl CpG binding protein 2 gene (MECP2) have been identified in roughly 75% of classical Rett girls. The vast majority of Rett cases (99%) are sporadic … Read more
