Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3: A Case Report and Literature Review [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neuropathology & Experimental Neurology, 2020
Abstract Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3), also known by the eponym Machado-Joseph disease, is an autosomal dominant CAG trinucleotide (polyglutamine) repeat disease that presents in young- to middle-aged adults. SCA3 was first described in Azorean individuals and has interesting epidemiological patterns.

Fatigue in the Preataxic and Ataxic Stages of Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3. [PDF]

open access: yesEur J Neurol
ABSTRACTObjectiveFatigue is a significant symptom in patients with spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3). This study explores the role of fatigue in SCA3, examining its impact on quality of life and its potential as an indicator of disease progression.MethodsWe prospectively recruited 128 molecularly confirmed SCA3 patients and 125 sex‐, age‐, and ...

Value of MRI Outcomes for Preventive and Early‐Stage Trials in Spinocerebellar Ataxias 1 and 3

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the value of MRI outcomes as endpoints for preventive and early‐stage trials of two polyglutamine spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs). Methods A cohort of 100 participants (23 SCA1, 63 SCA3, median Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) score = 5, 42% preataxic, and 14 gene‐negative controls) was scanned at 3T up ...

Genome-wide screen for modifiers of ataxin-3 neurodegeneration in Drosophila. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2007
Spinocerebellar ataxia type-3 (SCA3) is among the most common dominantly inherited ataxias, and is one of nine devastating human neurodegenerative diseases caused by the expansion of a CAG repeat encoding glutamine within the gene.

Complementarity of Long‐Reads and Optical Mapping in Parkinson's Disease for Structural Variants

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Long‐read sequencing and optical genome mapping technologies have the ability to detect large and complex structural variants. This has led to the discovery of novel pathogenic variants in neurodegenerative movement disorders. Thus, we aimed to systematically compare the SV detection capabilities of OGM and ONT in Parkinson's disease.

ATXN2-CAG42 sequesters PABPC1 into insolubility and induces FBXW8 in cerebellum of old ataxic knock-in mice

open access: yes, 2012
Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 2 (SCA2) is caused by expansion of a polyglutamine encoding triplet repeat in the human ATXN2 gene beyond (CAG)31. This is thought to mediate toxic gain-of-function by protein aggregation and to affect RNA processing ...
