Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the genetic distribution of spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) subtypes in a Peruvian mestizo population, specifically looking at the CAG repeat in genes ATXN1, ATXN3, and CACNA1A to understand their correlation with disease prevalence.
- - Researchers genotyped 213 healthy individuals and found no link between the frequency of large normal (LN) alleles in ATXN1 and ATXN3 and the prevalence of SCA1 and MJD/SCA3.
- - While a correlation was found between CACNA1A LN alleles and SCA6 frequency in different populations, the study concludes that the low prevalence of SCA1 and MJD/SCA3
