Abstract

Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) is the most common recessive ataxia caused by reduced expression of frataxin, a nuclear encoded mitochondrial protein. In this study we examined the effects of 3-nitropropionic acid (3-NP) on frataxin expression in FRDA patient and control lymphoblasts and in rat pheochromocytoma cell line (PC12) overexpressing human frataxin. Our studies showed an up-regulation of frataxin expression in both FRDA and control lymphoblasts following exposure to 3-NP. In addition, in transgenic frataxin overexpressing cells 3-NP caused an increase of frataxin protein.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
