Endosomal dysfunction contributes to cerebellar deficits in spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 [PDF]
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6) is a rare disease that is characterized by cerebellar dysfunction. Patients have progressive motor coordination impairment, and postmortem brain tissue reveals degeneration of cerebellar Purkinje cells and a reduced ...

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 in eastern India: Some new observations [PDF]
Introduction: Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are hereditary, autosomal dominant progressive neurodegenerative disorders showing clinical and genetic heterogeneity. They are usually manifested clinically in the third to fifth decade of life although there

Impaired Spatio-Temporal Predictive Motor Timing Associated with Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 6. [PDF]
Many daily life activities demand precise integration of spatial and temporal information of sensory inputs followed by appropriate motor actions. This type of integration is carried out in part by the cerebellum, which has been postulated to play a ...

Polyglutamine length-dependent toxicity from α1ACT in Drosophila models of spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 [PDF]
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6) is a neurodegenerative disease that results from abnormal expansion of a polyglutamine (polyQ) repeat. SCA6 is caused by CAG triplet repeat expansion in the gene CACNA1A, resulting in a polyQ tract of 19-33 in ...

Biallelic VPS41 Variants in Autosomal Recessive Spinocerebellar Ataxia 29 Resolved by Long-Read Sequencing and RNA Analysis. [PDF]
Long‐read sequencing phased multiple VPS41 variants and established the biallelic configuration in a patient with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia 29. Transcript analysis revealed distinct allele‐specific splicing abnormalities, while the patient also showed clinical features beyond the typical phenotype.
