22. Evidence for a functional involvement of the four mutations affecting ATRX (p.1761M4T), PQBP1 (p.155R4X), and SLC6A8 (p.390P4L and p.477S4L), in the etiology of intellectual disability. PMID: 21267006
23. symptoms of the creatine transporter defect (mental retardation, learning difficulties, and constipation) can be present in female SLC6A8 heterozygotes PMID: 20528887
24. SLC6A8 genes may not be directly involved in human male infertility PMID: 21190923

27. Guanidinoacetate is transported from AGAT- to GAMT-expressing cells through SLC6A8 to allow creatine synthesis, thereby explaining creatine deficiency in SLC6A8-deficient CNS. PMID: 19879361
