London, Nov 1 : Scientists at the University of California, Irvine, have claimed that they have found a way to improve and even restore cognitive function in people suffering from fragile X, the most commonly inherited form of learning disability.
Fragile X is caused by mutation of a gene called FMRl on the X chromosome.
The mutation prevents the brain from developing properly, leading to a form of mental retardation that has long been considered untreatable.
However, researchers, led by Julie Lauterborn, have now devised a new way to improve and even restore cognitive function not only in people suffering from fragile X, but in people with other cognitive impairments as well.
