Spinocerebellar ataxias

2018
There are over 40 autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) now identified. In this chapter we delineate the phenotypes of SCAs 1-44 and dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) and highlight the clinical and genetic features of the well characterised SCAs in detail in the main section of the chapter, along with their frequency and age at ...

The Spinocerebellar Ataxias

Clinical Neuropharmacology, 2000
The spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are diseases characterized by the progressive degeneration and subsequent loss of neurons accompanied by reactive gliosis, degeneration of fibers from the deteriorating neurons, and clinical symptoms reflecting the locations of the lost neurons.

The pathogenesis of spinocerebellar ataxia

The Cerebellum, 2005
Six forms of spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) are caused by pathological cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG) trinucleotide repeat expansions in the coding region of the mutated genes. The translated proteins contain abnormally long polyglutamine stretches, and SCA-1, SCA-2, SCA-3/Machado-Joseph disease (MJD), SCA-6, SCA-7, and SCA-17 are "polyglutamine diseases"

Brain pathology of spinocerebellar ataxias

Acta Neuropathologica, 2012
The autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxias (ADCAs) represent a heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative diseases with progressive ataxia and cerebellar degeneration. The current classification of this disease group is based on the underlying genetic defects and their typical disease courses.

The hereditary spinocerebellar ataxias in Japan

Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 2003
In Japan, multiple system atrophy (MSA) accounts for 40% of all spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) and hereditary disorders account for 30%. Among the latter, autosomal dominant disorders are common and recessive ataxias are rare. Although the frequency of SCA genotypes differs between geographic regions throughout Japan, SCA6, SCA3/MJD, and DRPLA are the ...

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 1

2012
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 1 (SCA1) is one out of nine polyglutamine diseases, a group of late-onset neurodegenerative diseases present only in humans. SCA1, the first autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia (ADCA) to be genetically characterized, is caused by the expansion of a CAG triplet repeat located in the N-terminal coding region of the disease ...

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 6

2012
The autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxias (SCA) are a genetically heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by progressive motor incoordination, in some cases with ataxia alone and in others in association with additional progressive neurological deficits.

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 7

2012
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7) is associated with progressive blindness, dominant transmission, and marked anticipation. SCA7 represents one of the polyglutamine expansion diseases with increase of CAG repeats. The gene maps to chromosome 3p12-p21.1. Normal values of CAG repeats range from 4 to 18.
