“…They also expand upon limited recent research illustrating a role for Fmr1 following EtOH exposure, albeit one that was, until now, exclusive to the hippocampus (Mulholland et al., ; Spencer et al., ; Wolfe et al., ). Fmr1 is a dynamic epigenetic target that can alter expression of hundreds of transcripts, but that itself may also be regulated by microRNAs (Kenny et al., ; Liu et al., ; Tan et al., ) or its own noncoding antisense RNA Fxr4 (Pastori et al., ; Peschansky et al., ). Given that acute and chronic EtOH alter microRNA and long noncoding RNA networks (Miranda et al., ; Osterndorff‐Kahanek et al., ; Teppen et al., ), future experiments should examine other epigenetic regulations of Fmr1 beyond the histone acetylation examined here in order to further elucidate the role of Fmr1 and its regulatory gene network in the neural response to EtOH, particularly the ataxic effects of EtOH.…”
