Alcohol induces sensitization to gluten in genetically susceptible individuals: a case control study. [PDF]
BackgroundThe mechanisms of cerebellar degeneration attributed to prolonged and excessive alcohol intake remain unclear. Additional or even alternative causes of cerebellar degeneration are often overlooked in suspected cases of alcohol-related ataxia ...

Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 2 [PDF]
1. Introduction: The autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxias (ADCA) are a clinically, pathologically and genetically heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative disorders caused by degeneration of cerebellum and its afferent and efferent connections.

Ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 2: clinical, biological and genotype/phenotype correlation study of a cohort of 90 patients [PDF]
Ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 2 (AOA2) is an autosomal recessive disease due to mutations in the senataxin gene, causing progressive cerebellar ataxia with peripheral neuropathy, cerebellar atrophy, occasional oculomotor apraxia and elevated alpha ...

Cerebellar cognitive disorder parallels cerebellar motor symptoms in Friedreich ataxia
Dentate nuclei (DN) are involved in cerebellar modulation of motor and cognitive functions, whose impairment causes ataxia and cerebellar cognitive affective syndrome (CCAS).

Inferior cerebellar hypoplasia resembling a Dandy-Walker-like malformation in purebred Eurasier dogs with familial non-progressive ataxia: a retrospective and prospective clinical cohort study. [PDF]
Cerebellar malformations can be inherited or caused by insults during cerebellar development. To date, only sporadic cases of cerebellar malformations have been reported in dogs, and the genetic background has remained obscure.

Sensorimotor processing for balance in spinocerebellar ataxia type 6. [PDF]
We investigated whether balance impairments caused by cerebellar disease are associated with specific sensorimotor processing deficits that generalize across all sensory modalities.

Downbeat nystagmus: aetiology and comorbidity in 117 patients [PDF]
Objectives: Downbeat nystagmus (DBN) is the most common form of acquired involuntary ocular oscillation overriding fixation. According to previous studies, the cause of DBN is unsolved in up to 44% of cases.

Cerebellar glutamatergic system impacts spontaneous motor recovery by regulating Gria1 expression
Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) often results in spontaneous motor recovery; however, how disrupted cerebellar circuitry affects PNI-associated motor recovery is unknown.

Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated plays an important role in cerebellar integrity and functionality
Accumulating evidence indicates that ataxia-telangiectasia mutated kinase is critical for maintaining cellular homeostasis and that it has both nuclear and cytoplasmic functions. However, the functions of ataxia-telangiectasia mutated that when lost lead
