The cholesterol 24-hydroxylase activates autophagy and decreases mutant huntingtin build-up in a neuroblastoma culture model of Huntington’s disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Objective Compromised brain cholesterol turnover and altered regulation of brain cholesterol metabolism have been allied with some neurodegenerative diseases, including Huntington’s disease (HD).

Huntingtin in health and disease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2003
After linkage of the Huntington disease (HD) gene was found in 1983, it took ten years of work by an international group to identify the mutation in the gene interesting transcript 15 (IT15) that causes the disease (1, 2). HD is an autosomal dominant inherited neurodegenerative disease that becomes manifest in midlife and causes progressive motor ...

Metabolic and transcriptomic analysis of Huntington's disease model reveal changes in intracellular glucose levels and related genes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Huntington's Disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expansion in a CAG-tri-nucleotide repeat that introduces a poly-glutamine stretch into the huntingtin protein (mHTT).

The Huntington's disease mutation impairs Huntingtin's role in the transport of NF-κB from the synapse to the nucleus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Expansion of a polyglutamine (polyQ) tract in the Huntingtin (Htt) protein causes Huntington's disease (HD), a fatal inherited neurodegenerative disorder.

IKK phosphorylates Huntingtin and targets it for degradation by the proteasome and lysosome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Expansion of the polyglutamine repeat within the protein Huntingtin (Htt) causes Huntington's disease, a neurodegenerative disease associated with aging and the accumulation of mutant Htt in diseased neurons.

The localization and interactions of huntingtin [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1999
Huntingtin was localized by using a series of antibodies that detected different areas of the protein from the immediate N–terminus to the C–terminal region of the protein. The more C–terminal antibodies gave a cytoplasmic localization in neurons of the brain in controls and cases of Huntington'sdisease (HD).

Stimulation of NeuroD activity by huntingtin and huntingtin-associated proteins HAP1 and MLK2 [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2003
NeuroD (ND) is a basic helix–loop–helix transcription factor important for neuronal development and survival. By using a yeast two-hybrid screen, we identified two proteins that interact with ND, huntingtin-associated protein 1 (HAP1) and mixed-lineage kinase 2 (MLK2), both of which are known to interact with huntingtin (Htt).

Mutant Huntingtin Promotes the Fibrillogenesis of Wild-type Huntingtin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2003
Aggregation of huntingtin (htt) in neuronal inclusions is associated with the development of Huntington's disease (HD). Previously, we have shown that mutant htt fragments with polyglutamine (polyQ) tracts in the pathological range (>37 glutamines) form SDS-resistant aggregates with a fibrillar morphology, whereas wild-type htt fragments with normal ...

Systematic interaction network filtering identifies CRMP1 as a novel suppressor of huntingtin misfolding and neurotoxicity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Assemblies of huntingtin (HTT) fragments with expanded polyglutamine (polyQ) tracts are a pathological hallmark of Huntington's disease (HD). The molecular mechanisms by which these structures are formed and cause neuronal dysfunction and toxicity are ...
