Prevalence of triplet repeat expansion in ataxia patients from Hokkaido, the northernmost island of Japan.

Journal of the neurological sciences - 1 Apr 2000

Sasaki H, Yabe I, Yamashita I, Tashiro K

Abstract excerpt

Approximately 44% of cases of spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) in Hokkaido, the northernmost island of Japan, were estimated to be inherited. To determine the prevalence of triplet repeat expansion in hereditary SCA patients, we genotyped seven genetically defined dominant SCAs in 349 patients, including 266 patients from 77 families, 78 probands from unrelated families with hereditary late-onset SCA, and five...
