Pediatric Neurology, 2003
Friedreich's ataxia, the most common hereditary ataxia, is caused by expansion of a GAA triplet located within the first intron of the frataxin gene on chromosome 9q13. There is a clear correlation between size of the expanded repeat and severity of the phenotype. Frataxin is a mitochondrial protein that plays a role in iron homeostasis.

Pharmacotherapy for Friedreich Ataxia
CNS Drugs, 2009Friedreich ataxia (FA) is a progressive genetic neurological disorder associated with degeneration of the dorsal columns, spinocerebellar tracts and other regions of the nervous system. The disorder results from mutations in the gene referred to as FXN.

Pediatric Neurology
With the introduction of potential new therapy for Friedreich ataxia, the disorder has taken on a new importance in the world of pediatric neurology. Originally described more than 150 years ago, large scale clinical studies have defined diagnostic criteria and the underlying mutation as a biallelic, unstable expansion of an intronic guanine adenine ...

Idebenone in Friedreich's ataxia
Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2008Friedreich's ataxia is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disease where impaired mitochondrial function and excessive production of free radicals play a central pathogenetic role. Idebenone, a synthetic analogue of coenzyme Q, is a powerful antioxidant that was first administrated to Friedreich's ataxia patients less than 10 years ago.The aim of ...

Mortality in Friedreich Ataxia
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2011Although cardiac dysfunction is widely accepted as the most common cause of mortality in Friedreich ataxia (FRDA), no studies have evaluated this since the advent of specific clinical and genetic diagnostic criteria.We performed a retrospective study of FRDA patients to determine cause of death followed by a case-control analysis comparing ...
