Disturbed Calcium Signaling May Play A Critical Role In Brain Cell Degeneration

Disturbed Calcium Signaling May Play A Critical Role In Brain Cell Degeneration

University of Utah School of Medicine researchers and their colleagues at University of Texas (UT) Southwestern Medical Center have found strong evidence that abnormal calcium signaling in neurons may play an important role in the development of spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2), a disorder causing progressive loss of coordination, speech difficulty, and abnormal eye movements. Their findings are published in the July 27, 2009 issue of Journal of Neuroscience.
