Allele-specific RNA silencing of mutant ataxin-3 mediates neuroprotection in a rat model of Machado-Joseph disease. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Recent studies have demonstrated that RNAi is a promising approach for treating autosomal dominant disorders. However, discrimination between wild-type and mutant transcripts is essential, to preserve wild-type expression and function.

Dysregulation of the endocannabinoid signaling system in the cerebellum and brainstem in a transgenic mouse model of spinocerebellar ataxia type-3. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Spinocerebellar ataxia type-3 (SCA-3) is a rare disease but it is the most frequent type within the autosomal dominant inherited ataxias. The disease lacks an effective treatment to alleviate major symptoms and to modify disease progression.

Decoding the Oncogenic Role of USP22 Through Pan‐Cancer Genomic and Epigenetic Analysis

open access: yesCancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Ubiquitin‐specific protease 22, an important catalytic component of the human SAGA (Spt‐Ada‐GcN5 Acetyltransferase) complex, regulates the deubiquitination and methylation of histones, which in turn influences gene expression. Its overexpression alters gene regulation, transcription, cancer progression, and therapy resistance.

Structural insights into the activity and regulation of human Josephin-2

open access: yesJournal of Structural Biology: X, 2019
The MJD family of human deubiquitinating enzymes contains four members: Ataxin-3, the ataxin-3-like protein (AT3L), Josephin-1, and Josephin-2. All share a conserved catalytic unit known as the Josephin domain.

Monocyte LOXHD1 and RHOB Expression Predictive of Progressive Systemic Sclerosis–Associated Interstitial Lung Disease

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Volume 78, Issue 4, Page 456-468, April 2026.
Objective A leading cause of death among patients with scleroderma (SSc), interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains challenging to prognosticate. The discovery of biomarkers that accurately determine which patients would benefit from close monitoring and aggressive therapy would be an essential clinical tool.

Antisense Oligonucleotide-Mediated Removal of the Polyglutamine Repeat in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3 Mice

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2017
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a currently incurable neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG triplet expansion in exon 10 of the ATXN3 gene.

Association Between Cerebellar Metabolic Markers and Activities of Daily Living in Patients With Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Significant correlations were found between cerebellar metabolite ratios and Activities of Daily Living (ADL) in SCA3 patients. These findings suggest that cerebellar metabolite ratios may serve as potential neuroimaging biomarkers to predict functional disability in SCA3.

Limited effect of chronic valproic acid treatment in a mouse model of Machado-Joseph disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Machado-Joseph disease (MJD) is an inherited neurodegenerative disease, caused by a CAG repeat expansion within the coding region of ATXN3 gene, and which currently lacks effective treatment.
