Definitions

• the present invention rel ates generally to methods of determining the response to metadoxine therapy for the treatment of Fragile X Syndrome and other cognitive disorders.
• the invention also relates to identifying individuals that will be responsive to metadoxine therapy.
• Fragile X Syndrome is associated with a fragile site expressed as an isochromatid gap in the metaphase chromosome at map position Xq 27.3
• Fragile X syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the S'-untranslated region of the fragile mental retardation 1 (FMRl) gene, located on the X chromosome.
• the mutation that causes FXS is associated with a CGG repeat in the fragile X mental retardation gene FMRl. In most healthy individuals, the total number of CGG repeats ranges from less than 10 to 40, with an average of about 29. In fragile X syndrome, the CGG sequence is repeated from 200 to more than 1 ,000 times.
• Premutation expansions (55-200 CGG repeats) of the FMRl gene are frequent in the general population, with estimated prevalences of 1 per 259 females and 1 per 812 males.
• Carriers of the premutation typically have normal IQ, although emotional problems such as anxiety are common.
• Older male carriers of the premutation (50 years and older) develop progressive intention tremor and ataxia.
• These movement disorders are frequently accompanied by progressive cognitive and behavioral difficulties, including memory loss, anxiety, and deficits of executive function, reclusive or irritable behavior, and dementia.
• This disorder has been designated fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS). Magnetic resonance imaging in subjects with FXTAS reveals increases in T2- weighted signal intensity in the middle cerebellar peduncles and adjacent cerebel lar white matter.
• FXS segregates as an X-linked dominant disorder with reduced penetrance. Either sex when carrying the fragile X mutation may exhibit intellectual disability, which is variable in severity. Children and adults with FXS have varying degrees of intellectual disability or learning disabilities and behavioral and emotional problems, including autistic-like features and tendencies. Young children with FXS often have delays in developmental milestones, such as learning how to sit, walk and talk. Affected children may have frequent tantrums, difficulties in paying attention, frequent seizures (e.g., temporal lobe seizures), are often highly anxious, easi ly overwhelmed, can have sensory hyperarousal disorder, gastrointestinal disorders, and may have speech problems and unusual behaviors, such as hand flapping and hand biting.
• FXS can be diagnosed by an established genetic test performed on a sample (e.g., blood sample, buccal sample) f om the subject. The test determines whether a mutation or premutation is present in the FMR1 gene of the subject based upon the number of CGG repeats.
• a sample e.g., blood sample, buccal sample
• Subjects with FXS can also have autism. About 5% of all children diagnosed with autism have a mutation in the FMR1 gene and also have fragi le X syndrome (FXS). Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is seen in approximately 30% of males and 20% of females with FXS, and an additional 30% of FXS individuals display autistic symptoms without having the ASD diagnosis. Although intellectual disability is a hallmark feature of FXS, subjects with FXS often display autistic features ranging from shyness, poor eye contact, and social anxiety in mild cases to hand flapping, hand biting and perseverafive speech in the severely affected. Subjects with FXS display other symptoms associated with autism such as attention deficit and hyperactivity, seizures, hypersensitivity to sensory stimuli obsessive-compulsive behavior and altered

• mice are a social species that engage in easily scored social behaviors including approaching, following, sniffing, grooming, aggressive encounters, sexual interactions, parental behaviors, nesting, and sleeping in a group huddle. Social approach in mice was evaluated by sniffing duration directed to a novel mouse.
• [0008S] Mi ce were placed in a test arena/cage of the same order of magnitude in size as the adult's home cage (40 x 23 x 12 cm cage, with a Perspex lid to facilitate viewing the mice) with fresh wood chippings on the floor.
• a background mouse odor was created by putting in some non-experimental mice into the apparatus prior to testing. Mice were transferred to the experimental room 10-15 min prior to testing.
• a test subject and a juvenile were placed simultaneously into the test cage. The total duration and number of bouts of social investigation, defined as sniffing and close following ( ⁇ 2 cm from the tail) of the stimulus juvenile by the tested mouse, was assessed for 3 min. 30 min later, the test was repeated using the same stimulus juvenile.
• Y-Maze Water Maze A clear Perspex Y-maze was filled with 2 cm of water at 20°C. This motivated the mouse to leave the maze after paddling to an exit tube at the distal end of one arm. The maze was placed in the middle of a room surrounded by prominent visual cues.
• the apparatus consisted of four successive, linearly arranged, increasingly anxiogenic alleys (each succeeding alley was painted a lighter color, had lower walls and/or was narrower than the previous alley) made of painted wood. Each section or alley was 25 cm long. Alley 1 had 25 cm high walls, was 8.5 cm wide, and was painted black. A 0.5 cm step down led to alley 2, which was again 8.5 cm wide, but had 1.3 cm high walls and was grey. A 1.0 cm step down led to alley 3, which was 3.5 cm wide, had 0.8 cm high walls, and was white. A 0.4 cm step led down to alley 4, which was also white, but had 1.2 cm wide and 0.2 cm high walls.
• the apparatus was elevated by anchoring the back of alley 1 to a stand, 50 cm high. Padding was provided under arms 3 and 4 in case a mouse fell off. Each mouse was placed at the closed end of alley 1 facing the wall. Timers were started 1) for the overall length of the test (5 min) + the latency to enter each arm, and 2) for the time spent in alley 1. When the mouse placed all 4 feet on to the next alley, it was considered to have entered the al ley. Total time spent in each alley (all four feet) was recorded.
• mice were placed into a novel environment (dark chamber) and received pairings of a cue and electric footshock (0.2 mA for 1 sec (Study 1) or 0.7 mA for 0.5 sec (Study 2)). Subsequently, when tested in the original training context, mice displayed a natural defensive response termed freezing
• Freezing time was defined as the time that the mice spent in immobile behavior, except for respiration. The data was expressed as the percentage of the test period. 24 hours after a training session, mice were tested for 5 min in the training chamber with no shock presentation and observed for freezing behavior.
• Phosphorylated ERK and Akt The Ras-Mek-ER and PI3K-Akt-mToR signaling pathways are involved in mediating activity dependent alterations in gene transcription underlying changes in synaptic plasticity ( lann and Dever, 2004). Phosphorylated ERK and Akt protein expression was measured by western blot analysis as previously described by Lopez Verri lli (Lopez Verriili et al., 2009). The antibodies employed were anti-phosphospecific antibodies against Akt (1/1000) and kinase (ERK) 1/2 (1/2000) (Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA).
• the antibody against phospho-ERK detects phosphorylation at phospho- ER l/2 (Thr202/Tyr204) whereas the antibody against phospho-Akt detects phosphorylation at phospho-Akt (Thr308).
• Total Akt and ERK 1/2 protein content and phosphorylated ERK and Akt were evaluated by blotting membranes with antiphospho-Akt (1 /1000) and antiphospho- ERK antibodies (1/2000) (Ceil Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA). Akt or ERK phosphorylation was normalized to protein content in the same sample and expressed as % of change with respect to basal conditions, considering basal levels as 100%.
• Protein loading was evaluated by stripping and re-b lotting membranes with ⁇ -actin antibody (1/1000) (Sigma- Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA). Phosphorylated ERK. and Akt protein expression in blood lymphocytes was measured by flow cytometry.
• a FACStar plus Bee ton Dickinson was used with the excitation laser tuned at 488 nm and green fluorescence from FITC (GST) was collected through a 515-545 nm bandpass filter.
• the mean FITC fluorescence Intensity was calculated in relation to the fluorescence of reference cells.
• the mean cellular fluorescence intensity (MFI) is directly proportional to the mean number of Ab molecules bound per cell.
• Neuronal morphology ippocampal cell cultures were prepared from wild type and Fmrl KO fetal mice at embryonic day of gestation 17.5 (El 7.5). Mice were killed by cervical dislocation and dissociated hippocampal cells were plated in 15 mm multi well vessels (Falcon Primaria). After 5d in vitro, green fluorescent protein (GFP) was transfected to facilitate monitoring dendritic spine morphogenesis after drug treatment (Ethell and Yamagucbi, 1999; Ethell et ai., 2001 , Henkemeyer et al., 2003). Dendritic spines were formed at around 16 days in vitro (DIV). Cultures were treated with metadoxine at 300 uM concentration at day 17 in vitro for 5 hrs.
• GFP green fluorescent protein
• Filopodia density of GFP transfected neurons was quantified by performing Sholl analyses of stacked Zeiss confocal generated images (40 x objective, stack of 20 ⁇ 0.2 ⁇ ). With Metamorph software, concentric equally spaced circles (every 20um) were drawn around the cell soma of each neuron and subsequently, the amount of filopodia was counted per circle.
• Transverse hippocampal slices 400 ⁇ im were obtained from 6-week-old Fmrl knockout and WT mice.
• a protein synthesis assay was performed as previously described using the nonradioactive fluorescence-activated cell sorting- based assay, surface sensing of translation (SU SET) method, which allows the monitoring and quantification of global protein synthesis in individual mammalian cells and in heterogeneous cell populations. (Hoeffer, 2011). The concentration of metadoxme used in this study was 300 ⁇ ,
• EXAMPLE 2 THE EFFECT OF METADOXINE (100 to 200 mg/kg) TREATMENT ON LEARNING AND MEMORY DEFICITS AND BIOCHEMICAL ABNORMALITIES IN THE Fmrl KNOCKOUT MOUSE MODEL OF FRAGILE X SYNDROME (Study 1)
• Metadoxme administration reversed the learning deficit effect in / ⁇ ' /;/,' ⁇ / knockout mice, this reversal being partial such that metadoxme-treated animals differed from the metadoxine-treated WT animals (p ⁇ 0.05).
• metadoxine produced a reversal of the deficit in Fmrl knockout mice (P ⁇ 0.05) but this was a partial reversal since metadoxine-treated Fmrl knockout mice differed from the metadoxine-treated Wild Type mice (p ⁇ 0.0001).
• the learning deficit seen in Fmrl knockout mice was completely reversed following treatment with 200 mg/kg i.p, metadoxme (treated Fmrl mice differed from vehicle-treated Fmrl knockout mice (P ⁇ 0.0001) but did not differ from metadoxine-treated WT mice), Metadoxine treatment had no effect on WT mice in either experiment (Fig, 1, Panels A-C).
• Vehicle-treated Fmrl knockout mice showed less spontaneous alternation than vehicle treated WT mice (pO.OGOl).
• Metadoxine treatment increased spontaneous alternation compared to vehicle treatment in Fmrl knockout mice (pO.0001), although metadoxine-treated Fmrl knockout mice showed a deficit compared to metadoxine-treated WT mice (p ⁇ 0.01 ). Metadoxine therefore produced a partial reversal of the deficit seen in Fmrl knockout mice.
• Vehicle-treated Fmrl knockout mice made less appropriate arm entries than vehicle-treated WT mice (p ⁇ 0.0001).
• Metadoxine treatment reduced this deficit (p ⁇ 0.0001) compared to vehicle-treated / ⁇ ;;>/ ⁇ / knockout mice, such that metadoxine-treated Fmrl knockout mice did not differ from metadoxine-treated WT mice.
• Metadoxme treatment had no effect on WT mice.
• the successive alleys test effectively measured anxiety (latency to enter the Alley 1) and hyperactivity (Alleys 2 to 4). Progression from Alley 1 through the successive Alleys 2, 3, and 4 was associated with exposure to an increasingly brightly colored environment with increasingly lower walls and narrower, more exposed open arms. Time spent on, and entries into, the open arms indicated anxiety; conversely, increasing time spent in more open arms reflected hyperactivity. These factors allowed for a sensitive test bracketing a range of anxietylike behaviors together with hyperactivity.
• Alley 1 The Fmrl knockout mice showed more anxiety than WT mice (pO.QOl). Fmrl knockout mice treated with metadoxine showed an amelioration in anxiety compared with the vehicle treated Fmrl knockout mice (pO.001), such that complete normalization occurred. There was no difference between the metadoxine-treated Fmrl knockout and metadoxine-treated WT mice. Also, metadoxine treatment had no effect on WT mice.
• Alley 2 WT mice showed less activity in Alley 2 when compared with the Fmrl knockout mice (p ⁇ 0.0001). Treatment with metadoxme reduced hyperactivity in the Fmrl knockout mice (p ⁇ 0.001), although this reversal of hyperactivity was partial since metadoxine- treated Fmrl knockout and WT mice differed (p ⁇ 0.001 ). Metadoxine treatment had no effect on WT mice. [8(50187] Alley 3: Fmrl knockout mice showed hyperactivity compared to WT mice (p ⁇ Q.0001). This hyperactivity was not reversed by metadoxme, since metadoxine-treated Fmrl knockout mice did not differ from vehicle-treated Fmrl knockout mice. Metadoxine treatment had no effect on WT mice.
• Metadoxine treatment reduced this anxiety and hyperactivity in the Fmrl knockout mice whilst leaving WT mice unaffected.

• the effect of 150 and 300 mg/kg oral metadoxine in Fmrl knockout mice did not differ from the effect of 150 mg/kg ip metadoxme. In each case, the reversal was complete since metadoxine-treated Fmrl knockout mice did not differ from metadoxine-treated WT mice.
• Figure 1 1 shows the effect of administration of once daily metadoxine at doses of 150 mg/kg ip or 150 and 300 mg/kg orally for seven days on social approach and social memory in Fmrl knockout and WT mice.
• Panel A shows the effect of vehicle or metadoxine at 150 mg/kg ip or 150 and 300 mg/kg orally on social approach behavior in Fmrl knockout or WT mice.
• the duration of sniffing behavior in Fmrl knockout mice was reduced compared to WT mice (pO.GOOl for each). Metadoxine treatment at any dose was without effect on WT mice.
• metadoxine treatment at 150 mg/kg ip, 150 mg kg, and 300 mg/kg orally produced reversals of the social approach deficit seen in Fmrl knockout mice (p ⁇ Q.0001 for O ⁇ M-pol50 and KQ-M-po300 vs. O-V po, respectively).
• the effect of oral metadoxme was not dose dependent between 150 and 300 mg/kg. This reversal was complete since metadoxme-treated Fmrl knockout mice did not differ from metadoxine-treated WT mice.
• the effect of 150 mg/kg ip metadoxme in Fmrl knockout mice did not differ from the effect of 150 mg/kg oral or 300 mg kg oral metadoxme.

• Panel A shows that vehicle-treated Fmrl knockout mice exhibited increased phosphorylation of lymphocyte Akt (p ⁇ 0.0001 for both ip and oral administration) compared to WT mice receiving equivalent vehicle treatment.
• Panel B shows thai vehicle-treated Fmrl knockout mice showed increased phosphorylation of lymphocyte ERK (p ⁇ 0.G001 for both ip and oral administration) compared to WT mice receiving equivalent vehicle treatment.
• pERK levels were increased in Fmrl knockout mice compared to WT mice in all three brain regions (p ⁇ 0.0001 in all cases).
• pERK levels were decreased in metadoxine-treated Fmrl knockout mice compared to vehicle-treated Fmrl knockout mice (p ⁇ 0.0001 in all cases).
• the effect in pre-frontal cortex was partial, the O-V and KO-M groups remained different (p ⁇ 0.05). Metadoxme was without effect on WT mice.
• Figure 14 shows the effect of administration of 150 mg/kg metadoxine for seven days on pAkt levels in hippocampus, pre-frontal cortex and striatum.
• pAkt levels were increased in Fmrl knockout mice compared to WT mice in all three brain regions (p ⁇ 0.0001 in ail cases).
• pAkt levels were decreased in metadoxine-treated Fmrl knockout mice compared to vehicle- treated Fmrl knockout mice in all three brain regions (p ⁇ 0.0001 in all cases). In all cases, there were no differences between KO-M and WT-M groups, showing complete reversal of activation of Akt, Metadoxme was without effect on WT mice.
• Figure 15 shows the effect of treatment for five hours with 300 ⁇ metadoxine. Dendrites were divided into 10 segments of 10 ⁇ , each based on distance from the soma (proximal to distal, left to right). Spine density was increased in neurons from Fmrl knockout m ce compared to neurons from WT mice in segment 3. Specifically, Figure 15, Panel A shows the density of neuronal filopodia. Primary hippocampal neurons from Fmrl knockout mice displayed an increased density of filopodia (p ⁇ Q.001). Treatment with 300 ⁇ metadoxine reduced the aberrant increase in density of neuronal filopodia in Fmrl knockout mice (p ⁇ 0.001).
• Figure 16 shows the effect of treatment with either vehicle or 300 ⁇ metadoxine on basal de novo protein synthesis in 400 ⁇ hippocampal slices from Fmrl knockout or WT mice. Protein synthesis was higher in vehicle-treated hippocampi from Fmrl knockout mice than vehicle-treated WT control hippocampi (p ⁇ 0.0001 ). Metadoxine treatment reduced protein synthesis rates in Fmrl knockout mouse hippocampi. This effect was partial since hippocampi from Fmrl knockout mice retained higher protein synthesis rates than metadoxine-treated hippocampi from WT mice (p ⁇ 0.001).
