Genetic Etiologies of Dystonia with Anarthria/Aphonia
Abstract Background Dystonia with anarthria and/or aphonia (DAnAp) represents a distinctive phenotype manifesting across lifespan. Frequently associated with genetic disorders, early recognition is critical for diagnosis and management. Objectives To provide practical recommendations for the clinical evaluation of patients with DAnAp, enhancing ...

Cognitive dysfunction in spinocerebellar ataxias [PDF]
Abstract Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) comprise a heterogeneous group of complex neurodegenerative diseases, characterized by the presence of progressive cerebellar ataxia, associated or otherwise with ophthalmoplegia, pyramidal signs, extrapyramidal features, pigmentary retinopathy, peripheral neuropathy, cognitive dysfunction and dementia ...

Biomarkers in Spinocerebellar Ataxias
Abstract Biomarkers are defined as measures that indicate biological processes and responses to interventions. Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are autosomal dominantly inherited, progressive diseases. As targeted therapies for SCAs are being developed, there is a great need for biomarkers for use in clinical trials. Molecular genetic tests are

Expanded ATXN3 CAG Repeat is Stable in Human Purkinje Cells
Abstract Background Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by an abnormally long polyglutamine‐encoding CAG repeat in the ATXN3 gene. Objectives We aimed to determine whether somatic expansion of the mutant ATXN3 (mATXN3) CAG repeat is present in the output cell of the cerebellar cortex, the Purkinje cell (PC), in ...
