carnitine and Ataxia Telangiectasia

carnitine has been researched along with Ataxia Telangiectasia in 1 studies

Ataxia Telangiectasia: An autosomal recessive inherited disorder characterized by choreoathetosis beginning in childhood, progressive CEREBELLAR ATAXIA; TELANGIECTASIS of CONJUNCTIVA and SKIN; DYSARTHRIA; B- and T-cell immunodeficiency, and RADIOSENSITIVITY to IONIZING RADIATION. Affected individuals are prone to recurrent sinobronchopulmonary infections, lymphoreticular neoplasms, and other malignancies. Serum ALPHA-FETOPROTEINS are usually elevated. (Menkes, Textbook of Child Neurology, 5th ed, p688) The gene for this disorder (ATM) encodes a cell cycle checkpoint protein kinase and has been mapped to chromosome 11 (11q22-q23).

"In this study, the modulating effect of L-carnitine on tert-butyl-hydroperoxide-induced DNA damage was compared with that of mannitol, a well known scavenger of hydroxyl radicals, both in normal and Ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM)-deficient lymphoblastoid cell lines established from A."7.74L-carnitine enhances resistance to oxidative stress by reducing DNA damage in Ataxia telangiectasia cells.
