Perianesthetic Complications in Genetic Mitochondrial Disease: A Review of Case Reports

Pediatric Anesthesia, Volume 36, Issue 10, Page 1217-1230, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Genetic mitochondrial diseases (GMDs) are a large group of genetically and clinically heterogeneous disorders caused by defects in genes encoding mitochondrial components. GMDs are grouped into named syndromes based on clinical presentation, for example, Leigh syndrome (LS).

Iron Storage in Friedreich’s Ataxia

Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 1999
To test the hypothesis that iron is increased in the cerebellum of patients with Friedreich’s ataxia (FA), a multigradient echo magnetic resonance sequence for the three-dimensional imaging of brain iron-induced contrast was used in 12 patients and 23 ...

Mitochondrial dynamics and repair differences in two mouse models of Friedreich's ataxia

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 20, Page 8360-8378, 15 October 2026.
Abstract figure legend Differential mitochondrial remodelling in Friedreich's ataxia (FA)‐associated cardiomyopathy. Schematic summary of mitochondrial alterations in two mouse models of FA exhibiting distinct cardiac phenotypes. In cardiac/skeletal muscle‐specific MCK‐Cre frataxin knockout (FXN‐cKO) mice, which develop heart failure with reduced ...

Early onset development of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in less than 1 year in a patient with familial Friedrich's ataxia: Case report

Radiology Case Reports
Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive ataxia, dysarthria, sensory loss. While neurological symptoms are prominent, cardiac manifestations significantly contribute to mortality. Cardiomyopathy in Friedreich'

Friedreich’s Ataxia: Clinical Presentation of a Compound Heterozygote Child with a Rare Nonsense Mutation and Comparison with Previously Published Cases

Case Reports in Neurological Medicine, 2018
Friedreich’s ataxia is a neurodegenerative disorder associated with a GAA trinucleotide repeat expansion in intron 1 of the frataxin (FXN) gene. It is the most common autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia, with a mean age of onset at 16 years.

Frataxin gene editing rescues Friedreich’s ataxia pathology in dorsal root ganglia organoid-derived sensory neurons

Nature Communications, 2020
Friedreich’s ataxia (FRDA) is an autosomal-recessive disorder. Here the authors describe a DRG organoid from patient derived-neurons and co-culture with muscle cells to mimic the disorder in vitro and demonstrate potential correction of the phenotype by ...

Understanding the genetic and molecular pathogenesis of Friedreich’s ataxia through animal and cellular models

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2012
In 1996, a link was identified between Friedreich’s ataxia (FRDA), the most common inherited ataxia in men, and alterations in the gene encoding frataxin (FXN).

Elevated Bile Acid 3β,5α,6β-Trihydroxycholanoyl Glycine in a Subset of Adult Ataxias Including Niemann–Pick Type C

Antioxidants
Ataxia is a common neurological feature of Niemann–Pick disease type C (NPC). In this disease, unesterified cholesterol accumulates in lysosomes of the central nervous system and hepatic cells.
