<i>Ficd</i> loss rescues motor impairments and reverses oligodendrocyte maturation deficits in a mouse model of spinocerebellar ataxia type 3
2026-08-10
Abstract excerpt
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is an inherited, fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by a pathological CAG repeat expansion in the ATXN3 gene, resulting in the selective degeneration of vulnerable neuronal populations. Recent work has identified impairments in oligodendrocyte maturation as a novel and robust feature of SCA3 pathogenesis. Oligodendrocytes synthesize myelin structural components through the...
