ATXN2 and its neighbouring gene SH2B3 are associated with increased ALS risk in the Turkish population

open access: yes, 2012
Expansions of the polyglutamine (polyQ) domain (≥34) in Ataxin-2 (ATXN2) are the primary cause of spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2). Recent studies reported that intermediate-length (27–33) expansions increase the risk of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Cerebellar ataxias and functional movement disorders: navigating clinical overlap

open access: yesBMJ Neurology Open
Background Functional movement disorders (FMDs) are commonly classified along canonical non-ataxic movement disorder patterns, creating a potential blind spot for frequently observed ataxia-like presentations. At the same time, normal diagnostic findings

Cognitive and motor reserve in Parkinson's disease: Two sides of the same coin?

open access: yesJournal of Neuropsychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cognitive reserve (CR) and motor reserve (MR) are constructs that can explain why some people are more resilient than others to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease (PD). However, it is unclear whether these reserves exert domain‐specific or cross‐domain influences.

MRI Signal Abnormalities of the Inferior Olivary Nuclei in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 2

open access: yesCase Reports in Neurology, 2017
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2) is an autosomal dominant spinocerebellar degeneration, associated with extended repeats of the trinucleotide CAG in the ATXN2 gene on the long arm of chromosome 12.

Ca2+ signaling and spinocerebellar ataxia

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2018
Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) is a neural disorder, which is caused by degenerative changes in the cerebellum. SCA is primarily characterized by gait ataxia, and additional clinical features include nystagmus, dysarthria, tremors and cerebellar atrophy. Forty-four hereditary SCAs have been identified to date, along with >35 SCA-associated genes. Despite

Technologies for engineering repetitive DNA

open access: yesQuantitative Biology, Volume 14, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Repetitive DNA, a fundamental architectural element of genomes, is widespread across organisms and comprises about 54% of the human genome. With advances in long‐read sequencing and bioinformatics approaches, highly repetitive sequences can now be characterized in depth.

Development of a SCA7 patient-derived lymphoblast cell model for testing RNAi knock-down of the disease-causing gene

open access: yes, 2011
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 106-116).Spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7) is an inherited neurodegenerative disease caused by the expansion of a CAG repeat within the ataxin-7 gene. The South African SCA7 population has been shown to have

Aqueous extract of Glycyrrhiza inflata inhibits aggregation by upregulating PPARGC1A and NFE2L2-ARE pathways in cell models of spinocerebellar ataxia 3

open access: yes, 2017
Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) types 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, and 17 and dentatorubropallidoluysian atrophy, as well as Huntington disease, are a group of neurodegenerative disorders caused by a CAG triplet-repeat expansion encoding a long polyglutamine (polyQ ...
