Brief Summary
Hereditary cerebellar ataxia is a type of autosomal dominant genetic disease, lesions mainly involving the cerebellum, but the spinal cord and cranial nerves may also be some involvement. A total of 20 molecularly diagnosed SCA1 patients divided in two groups. One group accepted for the treatment of stem cell transplantation,the other group will be the control. Purpose of this project to prove that allogeneic umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells are applied to clinical safely, and in the treatment of hereditary cerebellar ataxia is valid.

Study Arms (2)
Control group
NO INTERVENTIONTen patients in the group only receive nerve functional evaluation and electrophysiology examination before and 1,3,6,12 months after recruit. They will not accept cell therapy.
Stem cell transplantation
EXPERIMENTAL10 patients in the group accept stem cell transplantation.
Interventions
The patients accepted 4 times stem cell transplantations through lumbar puncture, the time is 3-5days between two treatments and the dose is about 2 ml(including 1×10'7 cells).
