Development of Frataxin Gene Expression Measures for the Evaluation of Experimental Treatments in Friedreich’s Ataxia

BACKGROUND: Friedreich ataxia is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder caused by GAA triplet repeat expansions or point mutations in the FXN gene and, ultimately, a deficiency in the levels of functional frataxin protein. Heterozygous carriers of the expansion express approximately 50% of normal...
