The preclinical stage of spinocerebellar ataxias
The autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) are a heterogeneous group of degenerative diseases of the cerebellum and connected regions. The discovery of various SCA genes and the subsequent possibility of predictive testing currently allow a genetic diagnosis to be established years or even decades before the actual appearance of ataxia ...

Autophagy at the Crossroads of Protein and RNA Toxicity in Repeat Expansion Cerebellar Ataxias
Repeat expansion cerebellar ataxias comprise a genetically and mechanistically heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative disorders unified by the pathological expansion of short tandem repeats (STRs) beyond a disease-causing threshold.

GAA‐FGF14 Ataxia Is a Frequently Overlooked Cause of Sporadic Adult‐Onset Ataxia
GAA‐FGF14 ataxia is a frequent cause of both familial and sporadic cerebellar ataxia. If symptoms are consistent, targeted testing of the FGF14 locus should be considered as a first‐line approach, as the diagnostic yield is up to 50%. ABSTRACT GAA‐FGF14 ataxia (spinocerebellar ataxia 27B, SCA27B), identified in 2023, is a major cause of adult‐onset ...

Astrocytes in Genetic Epilepsies: Supporting Actor or Key Player?
Astrocytes contribute to the pathophysiology of acquired epilepsy. However, less is known about their contribution to genetic epilepsy syndromes which often exhibit frequent comorbidity with neurodevelopmental and psychiatric disorders. Epileptic seizures are also frequently present in neurodevelopmental disorders.

Ca2+ signaling and spinocerebellar ataxia
Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) is a neural disorder, which is caused by degenerative changes in the cerebellum. SCA is primarily characterized by gait ataxia, and additional clinical features include nystagmus, dysarthria, tremors and cerebellar atrophy. Forty-four hereditary SCAs have been identified to date, along with >35 SCA-associated genes. Despite

Oral E171 exposure (2 mg/kg body weight/day) in a randomized cross‐over study of 31 healthy adults increased fecal titanium and blood superoxide while altering the colon transcriptome and enriching 73 pathways linked to oxidative stress, metabolism, and colorectal cancer.

Roots of Progress: Uncovering Cerebellar Ataxias Using iPSC Models
The inaccessibility of human cerebellar tissue and the complexity of its development have historically hindered the study of cerebellar ataxias, a genetically diverse group of neurodegenerative disorders.

Spinocerebellar ataxia-21 in a Turkish child
Hereditary cerebellar ataxias are genetically heterogeneous disorders. Autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia-21 (SCAR21) is a neurologic disorder characterized by the onset of cerebellar ataxia, recurrent episodes of liver failure, peripheral ...
