Polyglutamine (polyQ) disorders [PDF]

open access: yesNucleus, 2012
Polyglutamine (PolyQ)-related diseases are dominant late-onset genetic disorders that are manifested by progressive neurodegeneration, leading to behavioral and physical impairments. An increased body of evidence suggests that chromatin structure and epigenetic regulation are involved in disease pathology.

Neurotoxicity Pathways in Drosophila Models of the Polyglutamine Disorders

Current Topics in Developmental Biology, 2017
Although polyglutamine expansion diseases are the most common genetically inherited neurodegenerative disorders, the key pathogenic mechanisms that lead to neuronal cell death are unclear. The expansion of a polyglutamine tract in specific proteins is the defining molecular insult, leading to cell-type and region-specific neuronal death.

Role of proteolysis in polyglutamine disorders

Journal of Neuroscience Research, 2003
AbstractTo date, nine polyglutamine disorders have been characterised, including Huntington's disease (HD), spinobulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA), dentatorubral‐pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA), and spinocerebellar ataxias 1, 2, 3, 6, 7 and 17 (SCAs). Although knockout and transgenic mouse experiments suggest that a toxic gain of function is central to ...

Epigenetic profiles in polyglutamine disorders

Epigenomics, 2017
The dominant polyglutamine (polyQ) disorders are a group of progressive and incurable neurodegenerative disorders, which are caused by unstable expanded CAG trinucleotide repeats in the coding regions of their respective causative genes. The most prevalent polyQ disorders worldwide are Huntington's disease and spinocerebellar ataxia type 3.
