Retinal hypoplasia and degeneration result in vision loss in Friedreich ataxia

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2023
Objective Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) is an inherited condition caused by a GAA triplet repeat (GAA‐TR) expansion in the FXN gene. Clinical features of FRDA include ataxia, cardiomyopathy, and in some, vision loss. In this study, we characterize features of

Cerebral compensation during motor function in Friedreich ataxia: The IMAGE‐FRDA study [PDF]

open access: yesMovement Disorders, 2017
ABSTRACTBackground: Friedreich ataxia is characterized by progressive motor incoordination that is linked to peripheral, spinal, and cerebellar neuropathology. Cerebral abnormalities are also reported in Friedreich ataxia, but their role in disease expression remains unclear.Methods: In this cross‐sectional functional magnetic resonance imaging study ...

Presentation_2_A new FRDA mouse model [Fxnnull:YG8s(GAA) > 800] with more than 800 GAA repeats.PPTX

open access: yes, 2023
IntroductionFriedreich’s ataxia (FRDA) is an inherited recessive neurodegenerative disorder caused by a homozygous guanine-adenine-adenine (GAA) repeat expansion within intron 1 of the FXN gene, which encodes the essential mitochondrial protein frataxin.

Clinical and molecular studies in five Brazilian cases of Friedreich ataxia Avaliação clínica e molecular de cinco pacientes brasileiros com ataxia de Friedreich

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 1999
Friedreich ataxia (FRDA), the most common autosomal recessive ataxia, is caused in 94% of cases by homozygous expansions of an unstable GAA repeat localised in intron 1 of the X25 gene.

GAA repeat expansion mutation mouse models of Friedreich ataxia exhibit oxidative stress leading to progressive neuronal and cardiac pathology

open access: yes, 2006
Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by an unstable GAA repeat expansion mutation within intron 1 of the FXN gene. However, the origins of the GAA repeat expansion, its unstable dynamics within different cells and tissues, and ...

An Overview of the Ferroptosis Hallmarks in Friedreich’s Ataxia

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Background: Friedreich’s ataxia (FRDA) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by early mortality due to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. FRDA is caused by reduced levels of frataxin (FXN), a mitochondrial protein involved in the synthesis of iron ...

BER capacity of the normal and FRDA patient lymphoblasts.

open access: yes, 2014
BER capacity of the normal and FRDA patient lymphoblasts was measured by incubating a random DNA sequence substrate containing an abasic site (a THF residue) with cell extracts of the normal and FRDA patient lymphoblasts under the conditions described in
