ABSTRACT
Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) is a group of autosomal dominant hereditary diseases. Based on their inheritance pattern, they can be divided into SCAs caused by expansion of microsatellite repeats or point mutations. Although SCAs may be diagnosed based on their clinical characteristics and results of genetic testing, their treatment still remains as a challenge. So far no drug has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration or the European Medicines Agency. Strict preclinical trials are critical for the development of disease-modifying drugs.
