Nonneurological Involvement in Late-Onset Friedreich Ataxia (LOFA): Exploring the Phenotypes.

Friedreich's ataxia (FDRA) is the most common inherited ataxia worldwide, caused by homozygous GAA expansions in the FXN gene. Patients usually have early onset ataxia, areflexia, Babinski sign, scoliosis and pes cavus, but at least 25 % of cases have atypical phenotypes. Disease begins after the age of 25 in occasional patients (late-onset Friedreich ataxia (LOFA)).

Genetic causes of intellectual disability in a birth cohort: a population-based study.

Intellectual disability affects approximately 1-3% of the population and can be caused by genetic and environmental factors.

The role of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase in acute lymphoblastic leukemia in a Brazilian mixed population.

The polymorphisms in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene are associated with leukemogenesis. In order to investigate the influence of two polymorphisms in the MTHFR gene, 677C>T and 1298A>C, on the risk of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) we performed a case-control study in children from different Brazilians' regions. Genotyping of 176 ALL and 199 unselected healthy subjects was performed using PCR-RFLP assay.
