Abstract

We screened the RFC1 intronic AAGGG repeat expansions in late-onset ataxia cases, MSA patients and controls. The data suggested that no biallelic repeat expansion carrier was found in our cohort and the heterozygous intronic AAGGG repeat expansions may not lead to an increased risk of late-onset ataxia or MSA.<br />Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest None.<br /> (Copyright © 2020.
