Patients exhibit a variety of symptoms predominantly linked to the function of FMRP protein in the nervous system like autistic behavior and mild-to-severe intellectual disability.
We identified a de novo frameshift variant (NM_015048.1:c.5644_5647del:p.(Ile1882Serfs*118)) in the last exon of SETD1B in a Japanese patient with autistic behavior, developmental delay, intellectual disability, and myoclonic seizures.
Transplantation of M/LGE progenitors or treatment postnatally with clonazepam, an agonist of the GABAA receptor, rescues the hyperexcitability and the autistic behaviors of TRIM32-/- mice, indicating a causal contribution of GABAergic disinhibition.
When deficient, Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) causes developmental deficits and autistic behaviors while TAR-DNA Binding Protein (TDP-43) dysregulation causes age dependent neuronal degeneration.
In humans, loss of function of Tcf4 leads to the rare neurodevelopmental disorder Pitt-Hopkins syndrome, which is characterized by intellectual disability, developmental delay and autistic behavior.
When deficient, Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) causes developmental deficits and autistic behaviors while TAR-DNA Binding Protein (TDP-43) dysregulation causes age dependent neuronal degeneration.
A de novo 921 Kb microdeletion at 11q13.1 including neurexin 2 in a boy with developmental delay, deficits in speech and language without autistic behaviors.
When deficient, Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein (FMRP) causes developmental deficits and autistic behaviors while TAR-DNA Binding Protein (TDP-43) dysregulation causes age dependent neuronal degeneration.
COG5-CDG (COG5 subunit deficiency) is a multisystem disease with dysmorphic features, intellectual disability of variable degree, seizures, acquired microcephaly, sensory defects and autistic behavior.
