Correlation of inter-locus polyglutamine toxicity with CAG•CTG triplet repeat expandability and flanking genomic DNA GC content [PDF]
Dynamic expansions of toxic polyglutamine (polyQ)-encoding CAG repeats in ubiquitously expressed, but otherwise unrelated, genes cause a number of late-onset progressive neurodegenerative disorders, including Huntington disease and the spinocerebellar ...

Deranged calcium signaling and neurodegeneration in spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 [PDF]
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3), also known as Machado-Joseph disease (MJD), is an autosomal-dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by a polyglutamine expansion in ataxin-3 (SCA3, MJD1) protein.

Ataxic Gait in Essential Tremor: A Disease-Associated Feature?
Background: While accumulating evidence suggests that balance and gait impairments are commonly seen in patients with essential tremor (ET), questions remain regarding their prevalence, their relationship with normal aging, whether they are similar to ...

A Small Trinucleotide Expansion in the TBP Gene Gives Rise to a Sporadic Case of SCA17 with Abnormal Putaminal Findings on MRI [PDF]
A Japanese woman developed gait disturbances at 25 years of age, and subsequently underwent gradual changes in her personality. By the age of 42, she showed clear signs of dementia and cerebellar ataxia, and displayed behavioral abnormalities, choreic ...

Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 27B (SCA27B): A Hereditary Ataxia in Portugal
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 27B (SCA27B) is a recently discovered hereditary disease caused by (GAA)≥250 repeat expansion in the fibroblast growth factor 14 (FGF14) gene, and multiple studies have recognized it as one of the most common causes of ...
