Clinical and genetic analysis of ataxic patients with CACNA1A mutations in Taiwan
Objective: To study the clinical presentation of ataxic patients with CACNA1A mutations in a Taiwanese cohort. Background: Mutations of CACNA1A gene is the genetic cause…Genotype-Phenotype correlations and expansion of the molecular spectrum of AP4M1-related Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia
Objective: To identify possible novel variants in a HSP family from Greece. Background: Autosomal recessive hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) due to AP4M1 mutations is a…Predominant motor neuron involvement in autosomal recessive SYNE1 ataxia
Objective: We here report on a novel SYNE1 mutation in an Austrian family extending the classical clinical phenotype in SYNE1 ataxia. Background: SYNE1 codes for…Co-occurrence of two triplet repeat associated SCA mutations: A dilemma in clinical diagnosis, prognosis and genetic counselling and clinical significance
Objective: To report clinical and genetic outcomes of rare combinatiorial triplet repeat expansion(TRE), SCA mutations in patients. Background: The presence of more than one TRE-SCA…Novel variants in the SACS gene in a first Central-Eastern European family with autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay (ARSACS)
Objective: To present genetics, clinical description and natural history of the disease in four members of a Polish family with novel variants in the SACS…Expanding the spectrum of PEX10-related peroxisomal biogenesis disorders: Slowly progressive recessive ataxia
Objective: Our objective was to report 3 patients with ataxia and unusually prolonged survival caused by missense mutations in the Zinc finger region of PEX10.…Autosomal recessive ataxia due to ANO10 mutations; full and novel phenotypic data in an Irish pedigree
Objective: We report on a family with ataxia due to mutations in the ANO10 gene to provide comprehensive clinical and cognitive data on the associated…A novel phenotype associated with GRN mutations: Spastic ataxia
Objective: We report a patient with Spastic Ataxia caused by new homozygous mutations in the GRN gene. Background: The gene GRN located on chromosome 17…CAG repeats number of ATXN7 in SCA7 patients and normal population in Japan
Objective: Patients with spinocerebellar ataxia type 7 (SCA7) have progressive ataxia associated with pigmental macular degeneration, pyramidal and extrapyramidal signs and some of them have…Do mutations in the TGM6 (SCA35) gene cause early-onset Parkinson’s disease?
Objective: To identify the genetic cause of early-onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD) in a Serbian family. Background: Hereditary EOPD is a genetically heterogeneous neurodegenerative disorder, characterized…
