Effects of Clarified Açaí Supplementation and Photobiomodulation on the Parotid Glands of Rats Submitted to Chemotherapy

open access: yesJournal of Oral Pathology &Medicine, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 120-132, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The antineoplastic drugs used in anticancer treatment regimens can induce changes in normal tissues, including salivary glands. This study evaluated the effects of clarified açaí and photobiomodulation (PBM) on the oxidative biochemistry and microstructure of the parotid glands of rats with oral mucositis. Methods Male rats (n = 54)

Insights into the effects of Friedreich ataxia on the left ventricle using T1 mapping and late gadolinium enhancement.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
BackgroundThe left ventricular (LV) changes which occur in Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) are incompletely understood.MethodsCardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging was performed using a 1.5T scanner in subjects with FRDA who are homozygous for an expansion ...

Clinical data and characterization of the liver conditional mouse model exclude neoplasia as a non-neurological manifestation associated with Friedreich’s ataxia

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2012
SUMMARY Friedreich’s ataxia (FRDA) is the most common hereditary ataxia in the caucasian population and is characterized by a mixed spinocerebellar and sensory ataxia, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and increased incidence of diabetes.

Somatic instability of the expanded GAA repeats in Friedreich's ataxia.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) is a genetic neurodegenerative disorder caused by transcriptional silencing of the frataxin gene (FXN) due to expansions of GAA repeats in intron 1.

Anatomical and functional analysis of the corticospinal tract in an FRDA mouse model

open access: yes
Abstract Friedreich’s ataxia (FRDA) is one of the most common hereditary ataxias. It is caused by a GAA repeat in the first intron of the FXN gene, which encodes an essential mitochondrial protein. Patients suffer from progressive motor dysfunction due to the degeneration of mechanoreceptive and proprioceptive neurons in dorsal root ...

Measuring peripheral nerve involvement in Friedreich’s ataxia

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2019
Objective Experimental therapies under development for Friedreich’s Ataxia (FRDA) require validated biomarkers. In‐vivo reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) of skin is a noninvasive way to quantify Meissner’s corpuscle (MC) density and has emerged as a ...

Progressive mitochondrial protein lysine acetylation and heart failure in a model of Friedreich's ataxia cardiomyopathy.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
IntroductionThe childhood heart disease of Friedreich's Ataxia (FRDA) is characterized by hypertrophy and failure. It is caused by loss of frataxin (FXN), a mitochondrial protein involved in energy homeostasis.

Mapping the Friedreich ataxia locus (FRDA) by linkage disequilibrium analysis with highly polymorphic microsatellites

open access: yesBiomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, 1994
The Friedreich's ataxia locus (FRDA) is tightly linked to markers D9S5 and D9S15 located in 9q13-q21. Cumulated maximum lod scores between FRDA and D9S5 and between FRDA and D9S15 are above 36 and 61, respectively, at a recombination fraction of 0, indicating that recombination events needed to orient the search of the gene are very difficult to ...
