Abstract
A marked decrease of the antioxidant response has been previously reported in SCA2 patients. We suggest that an unbalance of transitional elements in the blood may reflect altered antioxidant homeostasis in SCA2 patients and could constitute a future peripheral biomarker for this disease. In addition, we suggest a possible role of vanadium in the altered lipid metabolism of SCA2 patients.
