Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐Based Therapy for Cerebellar Ataxia: From Bench to Bedside
Allogeneic hMSCs transplanted across LPS, Ara‐C, and SCA2 cerebellar ataxia (CA) models suppress neuroinflammation and restore the neurotrophin axis, collectively preserving Purkinje cell integrity. These preclinical findings are being translated clinically, from a first‐in‐human case report to an ongoing Phase II/III randomized trial (NCT02540655 ...

ABSTRACT Background Early‐onset oral squamous cell carcinoma (EO‐OSCC), commonly defined as occurring in individuals under 50 years of age, is increasingly recognized as a potentially distinct clinical subset with differences in exposure patterns and tumor biology compared with conventional oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).

Ataxin‐1 has been recently implicated in B cell regulation in the context of multiple sclerosis pathology. In this study, we used a multiomics pipeline to profile the B cell transcriptome, epigenome, and proteome in response to encephalitogenic challenges.

Quinazolinone and Phthalazinone Inhibitors of the HDAC6/Ubiquitin Protein–Protein Interaction
Here, we report the validation and expansion of small‐molecule inhibitors targeting the HDAC6 ZnF‐UBD pocket. Following molecular modeling, hits were synthesized, and candidate compounds were tested in fluorescence polarization of ubiquitin C‐terminal peptide displacement.

In spinocerebellar ataxia-7 (SCA7), a polyglutamine (polyQ) expansion in the ataxin-7 protein leads to the formation of neuronal intranuclear inclusions (NIIs) and neurodegeneration.

Blood-brain barrier (BBB) disruption is a common feature in neurodegenerative diseases. However, BBB integrity has not been assessed in spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) such as Machado-Joseph disease/SCA type 3 (MJD/SCA3), a genetic disorder, triggered by ...

The Effect of Protein Tagging on Aggregation and Phase Separation
ABSTRACT Protein tags are widely used for purification, solubilization, detection, and imaging, yet they can substantially alter protein self‐assembly. This interference is particularly significant for intrinsically disordered proteins and low‐complexity domains, whose aggregation and phase separation are mediated by weak multivalent interactions that ...

Ataxin-3 phosphorylation protects neurons [PDF]
![Figure][1] Expanded ataxin-3 causes an extensive loss of neurons (brown) in rat brains (left). But the amount of neurodegeneration is reduced when serine 12 is mutated to aspartate (right).

The CAG expansion in the ataxin-3 (ATXN3) protein is the underlying cause of Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3 (SCA3), a polyglutamine disease. The aggregation of mutant ATXN3 protein is hypothesized to contribute to neuronal dysfunction, neurodegeneration ...

Allosteric regulation of deubiquitylase activity through ubiquitination
Ataxin-3, the protein responsible for spinocerebellar ataxia type-3, is a cysteine protease that specifically cleaves poly-ubiquitin chains and participates in the ubiquitin proteasome pathway.
