pubmed:abstractText
Ataxia-telangiectasia is caused by mutations in the ATM gene, the protein product of which is essential for effective response to double-stranded DNA breaks. Loss of ATM function explains most aspects of the disease, but not the cerebellar neurodegeneration characteristic of the disease. Mice lacking ATM provide an excellent model of the human disorder. In addition to deficient response to DNA damage, these mice exhibit oxidative stress, which we hypothesized is the cause of cerebellar dysfunction. We show that treatment with a catalytic antioxidant corrects the neurobehavioral deficit in these mice.
