Abstract excerpt

Some kindreds with familial parkinsonism exhibit genetic anticipation, suggesting possible involvement of trinucleotide repeat expansion. Recent reports have shown trinucleotide repeat expansions in the spinocerebellar ataxia 2 (SCA2) gene in patients with levodopa-responsive parkinsonism. We tested 136 unrelated patients with familial parkinsonism for SCA2 mutations. Two probands had borderline mutations; the...
