Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To identify various subtypes of spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) among autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia (ADCA) patients referred to our research center, SCA1, SCA2, SCA3/MJD (Machado-Joseph disease), SCA6, SCA7, SCA8 and SCA12 loci were assessed for expansion of trinucleotide repeats. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 211 ADCA patients, including 202 patients with dominantly inherited ataxia from 81...
