Autophagy in Spinocerebellar ataxia type 2, a dysregulated pathway, and a target for therapy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of autophagy in SCA2 pathogenesis and its suitability as a target for therapeutic intervention was investigated, and the authors developed and characterized a new striatal lentiviral mouse model that resembles several neuropathological hallmarks observed in scinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2) including formation of aggregates, neuronal marker loss, cell death and neuroinflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Eye movement changes in autosomal dominant spinocerebellar ataxias.

TL;DR: Overall, the findings reported indicate that oculomotor analysis could be of help in differential diagnosis among SCAs and contribute to clarify the role of brain structures, particularly the cerebellum, in oculumotor control.

Movement disorders in the tropics

TL;DR: Taking into account the diverse etiologies of movement disorders in the tropics, movement disorders with a nutritional basis such as the infantile tremor syndrome, seasonal ataxia and tropical ataxic neuropathy, and manganese neurotoxicity are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical profile and genetic correlation of patients with spinocerebellar ataxia: A study from a tertiary care centre in Eastern India.

TL;DR: A cross-sectional study conducted at Bangur Institute of Neurosciences, Kolkata showed SCA-2 is the most common variety of SCA and genotypic-phenotypic correlation was observed inSCA-1,2,6 and 12 patients.

Eye Movement Abnormalities in Spinocerebellar Ataxias

TL;DR: The worldwide prevalence of SCAs is estimated near to 5-7 cases per 100 000 inhabitants but it can be higher in some regions due to foundational effects such as SCA2 in Holguin, Cuba and SCA3 in Azores islands, Portugal.
