The proposal is predicated on preliminary findings that short-term memory deficits precede motor deficits by at least three months. We will also explore whether small-molecule drugs currently in development for the treatment of Alzheimer\u2019s disease rescue cognitive deficits in <em>Sacs<\/em> KO mice. Together with drugs that halt or delay degeneration of the cerebellum, we hope that these \u201ccognitive enhancers\u201d will improve quality of life of families afflicted with ARSACS and similar disorders.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Subvention : $100 000<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Dur\u00e9e : un an<\/p>\n<p>Contact :<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/arsacs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Strack.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Dr Stefan Strack, D\u00e9partement des neurosciences et de pharmacologie<\/p>\n<p>Facult\u00e9 de m\u00e9decine Carver de l'Universit\u00e9 de l'Iowa<\/p>\n<p>2-452 BSB, 51 Newton Rd., Iowa City, IA 52242<br \/><span class=\"gI\"><span class=\"qu\" tabindex=\"-1\" role=\"gridcell\" translate=\"no\"><span class=\"go\">stefan-strack@uiowa.edu<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The cerebellum is critical for the coordination of movements and thought processes.
