The fragile-X syndrome is the most common cause of familial intellectual disability. Recently, the gene related to the fragile-X syndrome [the 'fragile-X mental retardation'-1 (FMR-1) gene] has been isolated. In this review, clinical and molecular aspects of the fragile-X syndrome, current benefits and future prospects are discussed.
脆性X综合征是家族性智力残疾最常见的病因。最近,与脆性X综合征相关的基因(“脆性X智力低下”-1基因,即FMR-1基因)已被分离出来。在这篇综述中,将讨论脆性X综合征的临床和分子方面、当前的益处以及未来的前景。
