CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE SCA2 should be considered as a cause of typical Parkinson's disease phenotype even in the absence of cerebellar ataxia. 28462804 2017
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Ataxin-2 (ATXN2) polyglutamine domain expansions of large size result in an autosomal dominantly inherited multi-system-atrophy of the nervous system named spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2), while expansions of intermediate size act as polygenic risk factors for motor neuron disease (ALS and FTLD) and perhaps also for Levodopa-responsive Parkinson's disease (PD). 27597528 2016
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE In conclusion, the transcriptome data do not exclude the role of ATXN2 mutated alleles in PD but its decrease protein expression in both SCA2c and SCA2p patients suggest a potential involvement of this gene in PD. 27663142 2016
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE We aim to clarify the pathogenic role of intermediate size repeat expansions of SCA2, SCA3, SCA6, and SCA17 as risk factors for idiopathic Parkinson disease (PD). 26354989 2015
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE Both levodopa responsive Parkinson disease (PD) like phenotype and atypical parkinsonism have been described especially in SCA2, SCA3, and SCA17 with geographic differences in prevalence. 25866756 2015
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE The single RING finger type E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase PARK2 is mutated in a Parkinson's disease (PD) variant and was found to interact with ATXN2, a protein where polyglutamine expansions cause Spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2) or increase the risk for Levodopa-responsive PD and for the motor neuron disease Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). 25790475 2015
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Pathogenic CAG (cytosine-adenine-guanine) expansions beyond certain thresholds in the ataxin-2 (ATXN2) gene cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2) and were shown to contribute to Parkinson disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and frontotemporal lobar degeneration. 22037902 2012
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE The study of 1490 patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) showed an enrichment of ATXN2 alleles 27/28 in a subgroup with familial cases, but the overall risk of sporadic PD was unchanged. 21889984 2012
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE The SCA2 cases confirmed an association between PD and interrupted expansions, as well as PD intrafamilial phenotypic homogeneity. 18990604 2009
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE These findings suggest that a mutation in SCA2 or SCA3/MJD may be one of the genetic causes of PD. 19672991 2009
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Thus, mutations of SCA2 or SCA3 did not play a major role in familial or early-onset PD in our study cohort. 17440947 2007
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 Biomarker disease LHGDN Importance of low-range CAG expansion and CAA interruption in SCA2 Parkinsonism. 17923635 2007

0.100 GeneticVariation disease LHGDN Thus, mutations of SCA2 or SCA3 did not play a major role in familial or early-onset PD in our study cohort. 17440947 2007
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE In the available patients with parkin, PINK1, SCA2 and SCA3, the dopamine transporter (DAT) scan revealed that the reduction of uptake was primarily observed in the bilateral putamen, basically sharing a similar pattern with that in idiopathic Parkinson's disease. 17017535 2006
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE We identified one positive case of SCA2 in an early-onset sporadic PD patient who had CAG 36 repeats, yielding a prevalence of 2.2% in early-onset sporadic PD patients and less than 1.0% in our study PD population. 16687213 2006
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE In order to define if mutation at these loci is a common cause of clinically defined parkinsonism we typed the SCA-2 and SCA-3 repeats for expansion in a series of 280 patients diagnosed with PD or parkinsonism. 15911147 2005
CUI: C0030567
Disease: Parkinson Disease
Parkinson Disease
0.100 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Although it is not possible to confirm if this patient has a de novo mutation of the SCA2 gene, this genetic defect seems to be contributing to his parkinsonian features and further supports the concept that apparently sporadic, late-onset, levodopa-responsive Parkinson's disease may have multiple causes. 15378681 2004

Parkinson Disease
0.100 Biomarker disease BEFREE We have previously shown in several pedigrees that SCA-2 and SCA-3 can cause both parkinsonism and typical Parkinson's disease in the absence of prominent ataxia; a finding which has been confirmed by others. 12853230 2003
