Parkinsonian phenotype in Machado-Joseph disease (MJD/SCA3): a two-case report [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2011
Background Machado-Joseph disease (MJD), or spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3), is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder of late onset, which is caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the coding region of the ATXN3 gene.

Analysis of the GGGGCC Repeat Expansions of the C9orf72 Gene in SCA3/MJD Patients from China.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Neurodegenerative disorders are a heterogeneous group of chronic progressive diseases and have pathological mechanisms in common. A certain causative gene identified for a particular disease may be found to play roles in more than one neurodegenerative ...

Ribosomal frameshifting on MJD-1 transcripts with long CAG tracts [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2005
The expanded CAG tract diseases are a heterogeneous group of late-onset neurodegenerative disorders characterized by the accumulation of insoluble protein material and premature neuronal cell death. Recent work has provided support for several mechanisms that may account for neurodegeneration, but no unifying mechanism has emerged.

The longitudinal progression of MRI changes in pre-ataxic carriers of SCA3/MJD

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, 2023
The natural history of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in pre-ataxic stages of spinocerebellar ataxia type 3/Machado-Joseph disease (SCA3/MJD) is not well known. We report cross-sectional and longitudinal data obtained at this stage.Baseline (follow-up) observations included 32 (17) pre-ataxic carriers (SARA

Two novel SNPs in ATXN3 3' UTR may decrease age at onset of SCA3/MJD in Chinese patients. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3), or Machado-Joseph disease (MJD), is an autosomal dominantly-inherited disease that produces progressive problems with movement. It is caused by the expansion of an area of CAG repeats in a coding region of ATXN3. The

Is the High Frequency of Machado-Joseph Disease in China Due to New Mutational Origins?

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
Machado-Joseph disease (MJD, also known as spinocerebellar ataxia 3 or SCA3) is the most common dominant ataxia worldwide, with an overall average prevalence of 1–5/100,000. To this date, two major ancestral lineages have been found throughout the world.

Trehalose alleviates the phenotype of Machado–Joseph disease mouse models

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2020
Background Machado–Joseph disease (MJD), also known as spinocerebellar ataxia type 3, is the most common of the dominantly inherited ataxias worldwide and is characterized by mutant ataxin-3 aggregation and neuronal degeneration.
