It has been observed that 5-hydroxytryptophan, serotonin precursor, is more effective than placebo improving neurological symptoms in patients with Friedreich ataxia (FA). FA is an autosomal recessive genetic illness responsible for progressive damage to the nervous system in the spinal cord, in particular of sensory neurons basal for leading muscle motion of the arms and legs via link with the cerebellum.
