"We have previously shown that rapamycin attenuates the phenotype in a mouse model of Huntington disease when administered pre-symptomatically and have recently extended this to demonstrate the effectiveness of rapamycin in a transgenic mouse model of spinocerebellar ataxia type 3, a polyglutamine disorder caused by mutations in the ataxin-3 gene."

"Machado–Joseph disease (MJD, also known as spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 or SCA3) is the most common dominant ataxia in the world and is caused by abnormal expansion of CAG repeats in a coding region of ATXN3, which produces an elongated polyglutamine (polyQ) tract in the Ataxin-3 protein ."

"Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3), also known as Machado-Joseph disease, is a polyglutamine (polyQ) neurodegenerative disorder caused by abnormal (more than 40 repeats) CAG nucleotide repeat expansions in the ataxin-3 (ATXN3) gene, which encodes a protein that is involved in ubiquitin-proteasome system degradation of proteins [XREF_BIBR, XREF_BIBR]."
