<p>Spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs) comprise a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorders. Despite the recognized role of specialized cerebellar glia in cerebellar development and dysfunction, immune activation and non-immune glial responses remain understudied in SCAs. This narrative review compiles evidence from cellular, animal, and human models on the cerebellar immune landscape and the specific pathways that drive homeostatic failure and neuroinflammatory cascades across SCA subtypes. Microgliosis emerges consistently—and often early— as a generalized feature across the SCA spectrum, preceding neurodegeneration in several subtypes. Concurrently, reactive astrogliosis extends broadly, reflecting widespread macroglial surveillance and metabolic stress regulation throughout histologically preserved gray matter, with specialized homeostatic failure of Bergmann glia in SCA1, SCA2, and SCA7. Peripheral inflammation, manifests as early as the prodromal stage and correlates with the cognitive–affective deficits in SCA2 and associates with the mutation size in SCA3, positioning it as integral to pathogenesis rather than epiphenomenal. Diverse, partially shared signaling pathways converge on multi-lineage glial breakdown and reciprocal neuroimmune crosstalk. These mechanisms involve NF-κB (SCA1,3,17), cGAS-STING (SCA2), TLR/MyD88 (SCA6), and JNK/c-Jun (SCA1,2,7). This review establishes abnormal reciprocal immune/non-immune glia crosstalk as a core pathogenic principle across SCAs, revealing novel therapeutic opportunities. In fact, targeting convergent signaling nodes such as NF-κB, or JNK pathways, holds disease-modifying potential across multiple subtypes. Future research should prioritize standardized comparative studies, longitudinal analyses linking both inflammation and non-immune glial pathology to clinical progression, and clinical trials evaluating targeted immunomodulatory and glial homeostatic-supportive agents.</p>
