Alterations of central serotonergic neurotransmission, particularly changes in the presynaptically located serotonin transporter (SERT) availability, are thought to be one of the major pathomechanisms of neuropsychiatric symptoms. Modern neuroimaging techniques such as single-photon emission compute
## Abstract Extrapyramidal features may occur in spinocerebellar ataxias consistent with neuropathological evidence of nigrostriatal involvement. Recently, striatal dopaminergic neurotransmission was found to be abnormal in the uncommon parkinsonian presentation of spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SC
