Activation of mTOR Ameliorates Fragile X Premutation rCGG Repeat-Mediated Neurodegeneration

Fragile X associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a late onset neurodegenerative disorder caused by aberrant expansion of CGG repeats in 5′ UTR of FMR1 gene. The elevated mRNA confers a toxic gain-of-function thought to be the critical event of pathogenesis. Expressing rCGG(90) repeats of the h...
