Glutamine Repeats and Neurodegeneration

Zoghbi, Huda Y., Orr, Harry T.·2000·Annual Review of Neuroscience

Abstract

A growing number of neurodegenerative diseases have been found to result from the expansion of an unstable trinucleotide repeat. Over the past 6 years, researchers have focused on identifying the mechanism by which the expanded polyglutamine tract renders a protein toxic to a subset of vulnerable neurons. In this review, we summarize the clinicopathologic features of these disorders (spinobulbar muscular atrophy, Huntington disease, and the spinocerebellar ataxias, including dentatorubropallidoluysian atrophy), describe the genes involved and what is known about their products, and discuss the model systems that have lent insight into pathogenesis. The review concludes with a model for pathogenesis that illuminates the unifying features of these polyglutamine disorders. This model may prove relevant to other neurodegenerative disorders as well.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
