et al.

Abstract: BackgroundFriedreich ataxia (FRDA) is an autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expanded GAA repeat in the first intron of the FXN gene.ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to analyze leukocyte telomeres length (LTL) in FRDA to verify the possible relationships between LTL and disease progression. We investigated LTL in a cohort of FRDA biallelic patients (n = 61), heterozygous (n = 29), and age‐matched healthy subjects (n = 87).MethodsLTL was measured by real‐time polymerase chain reaction … Show more
