                                  "Recently, treatment of a C. elegans model of SCA3 (spinocerebellar ataxia type 3; also known as Machado-Joseph disease) with 17-(allylamino)-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG), an HSP90 inhibitor, successfully decreased the mutant ATXN3 aggregation and improved locomotor activity [XREF_BIBR]."

                                  "We conclude that insertion of PAS upstream of expanded CAG repeats using CRISPR/Cas9 is a viable way to eliminate ataxin-3 aggregates and rescue the Golgi apparatus phenotype in SCA3.He et al. have shown that CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing technique in SCA3 patient-derived iPSCs can eliminate the production of mutant ataxin-3 protein and correct mitochondrial dysfunction by replacing 74 CAG repeats with 17 CAG repeats  ."
