[NFS-01]Neuroscience Frontier Symposium 01 Discovery of new repeat expansions unveils the diverse pathogenesis of spinocerebellar ataxias
2025年5月21日(水) 13:20 〜 15:20
第05会場(大阪国際会議場10F 会議室1009)
座長：Andreas Puschmann（Neurology, Lund University, Sweden）, 永井 義隆（近畿大学医学部 脳神経内科）
Recent progress in the whole genome sequencing technology leads to discovery of various repeat expansion mutations either in protein-coding and non-coding regions in spinocerebellar ataxias. These repeat expansions could trigger either loss of function or gain of function at RNA and protein levels. Especially, discovery of repeat-associated non-AUG (RAN) translation tremendously expands our understanding of the pathomechanisms, implying their convergence between coding and non-coding repeat expansion disorders. In this symposium, distinguished scientists will present their cutting-edge researches, and we will discuss the diverse pathogenesis unveiled by new repeat expansions in spinocerebellar ataxias.
