Spinocerebellar ataxia type-12 (SCA-12) is a neurodegenerative disease caused by tandem CAG repeat expansion in the 5-UTR/non-coding region of PPP2R2B. Molecular pathology of SCA12 has not been studied in the context of CAG repeats and no appropriate models exist. We found in human SCA12-iPSC derived neuronal lineage that expanded CAG in PPP2R2B transcript forms nuclear RNA foci and were found to sequester variety of proteins. Further, the ectopic expression of transcript containing varying length of CAG repeats exhibits non-canonical Repeat Associated Non-AUG (RAN) translation in multiple frames in HEK293T cells, which was further validated in patient-derived neural stem cells using specific antibodies. mRNA sequencing of the SCA12 and control neurons have shown a network of crucial transcription factors affecting neural fate, in addition to alteration of various signaling pathways involved in neurodevelopment. Altogether, this study identifies the molecular signatures of spinocerebellar ataxia type-12 disorder using patient-derived neuronal cell lines.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
