Background: Myoclonus and tremor are common movement disorder phenomenologies in steroid-responsive encephalopathy associated with autoimmune thyroiditis (SREAT). Pure ataxia without encephalopathy has rarely been reported.

Cellular and circuit mechanisms underlying spinocerebellar ataxias [PDF]
Degenerative ataxias are a common form of neurodegenerative disease that affect about 20 individuals per 100,000. The autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are caused by a variety of protein coding mutations (single nucleotide changes ...

The expression of various genes involved in synapse development, stability and/or function was studied in developing mechanosensory neuromasts and electrosensory ampullary organs in sterlet sturgeon. Most were shared, including Slc17a8, Slc1a3 and Nrxn3, but Cbln18 was neuromast‐restricted and Tulp1 was ampullary organ‐restricted.

Computational analysis of calcium signaling and membrane electrophysiology in cerebellar Purkinje neurons associated with ataxia [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Mutations in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (sER) calcium channel Inositol Trisphosphate Receptor type 1 (IP3R1) in humans with the motor function coordination disorders Spinocerebellar Ataxia Types 15 and 16 (SCA15/16) and in a ...

Abstract Background and objective The development of Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is shaped by genetic predisposition and epigenetic regulation. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) risk alleles are major genetic determinants, but the epigenetic landscape in relation to disease onset remains unclear.

Temporal and spatial variability in speakers with Parkinson's Disease and Friedreich's Ataxia [PDF]
Speech variability in groups of speakers with Parkinson's disease (PD) and with Friedreich's ataxia was compared with healthy controls. Speakers repeated the same phrase 20 times at one of two rates (fast or habitual).

Heterozygous missense variants of SPTBN2 are a frequent cause of congenital cerebellar ataxia [PDF]
Heterozygous missense variants in the SPTBN2 gene, encoding the non-erythrocytic beta spectrin 2 subunit (beta-III spectrin), have been identified in autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxia type 5 (SCA5), a rare adult-onset neurodegenerative disorder ...

Paula Coutinho’s outstanding contribution to the definition of Machado-Joseph disease
Machado-Joseph disease, also known as spinocerebellar ataxia type 3, is the most common form of autosomal dominant ataxia in the world. Paula Coutinho, a highly-regarded Portuguese neurologist worldwide, had a seminal participation in the definition of ...

Treatment of Spinocerebellar Ataxia with Mesenchymal Stem Cells: A Phase I/IIa Clinical Study
Ataxia is one of the most devastating symptoms of many neurodegenerative disorders. As of today, there is not any effective treatment to retard its progression. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have shown promise in treating neurodegenerative diseases.
