High levels of frataxin overexpression leads to mitochondrial and cardiac toxicity in mouse models
2020-04-01
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Friedreich ataxia (FA) is currently an incurable inherited mitochondrial disease caused by reduced levels of frataxin (FXN). Cardiac dysfunction is the main cause of premature death in FA. AAV-mediated gene therapy constitutes a promising approach for FA, as demonstrated in cardiac and neurological mouse models. While the minimal therapeutic level of FXN protein to be restored and biodistributio...
