In silico designing of putative peptides for targeting pathological protein Htt in Huntington's disease

open access: yesHeliyon, 2021
Huntington's disease is a neurodegenerative disease caused by CAG repeat in the first exon of HTT (Huntingtin) gene, leading to abnormal form of Htt protein containing enlarged polyglutamine strands of variable length that stick together to form ...

Novel methods and therapeutic approaches of diagnosis and treatment of Huntington's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Huntington’s Disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor dysfunction, emotional disturbance, dementia and weight loss. The disorder is caused by an autosomal dominant expansion of a CAG repeat encoding for a polyglutamine stretch in ...

Silencing Huntington's chorea: Is RNA Interference a Potential Cure? [PDF]

open access: yesImpulse: The Premier Undergraduate Neuroscience Journal, 2006
In 1872, George Huntington described Huntington's disease as characterized by motor, cognitive and psychiatric impairments. Huntington's disease is a dominant and autosomal mutation on chromosome 4 featuring the insertion of numerous CAG repeats.

Combined use of a double-lumen tube and Fogarty catheter to prevent the endobronchial spread of infection: a case report [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2016
Huntington's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder with an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. Patients with Huntington's disease show an increased risk of aspiration pneumonia when the pharyngeal muscle is invaded.

Disease stage, but not sex, predicts depression and psychological distress in Huntington's disease. A European population study

open access: yes, 2016
Objective: Depression and anxiety significantly affect morbidity in Huntington's disease. Mice.models of Huntington's disease have identified sex differences in mood-like behaviours that vary across disease lifespan, but this interaction has not ...

Analysis of White Adipose Tissue Gene Expression Reveals CREB1 Pathway Altered in Huntington's Disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In addition to classical neurological symptoms, Huntington's disease (HD) is complicated by peripheral pathology and both the mutant gene and the protein are found in cells and tissues throughout the body.

Metformin treatment reduces motor and neuropsychiatric phenotypes in the zQ175 mouse model of Huntington disease

open access: yesExperimental and Molecular Medicine, 2019
Huntington’s disease: Diabetes drug limits disease-related degeneration in mice Metformin, an existing drug for diabetes, shows promise in alleviating symptoms of early Huntington’s disease in mouse models. Huntington’s disease is a genetic disorder that

Innovative approaches to monitor mutant huntingtin and to facilitate its degradation in Huntington's disease models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a dominant genetic neurodegenerative disease caused by a mutation in the exon 1 of the huntingtin gene. The clinical symptoms, such as motor disturbances (chorea), cognitive decline and psychiatric impairments are usually ...

Age-related and disease locus-specific mechanisms contribute to early remodelling of chromatin structure in Huntington’s disease mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
The dynamics of chromatin and transcriptional changes underlying Huntington’s disease remain poorly understood. Here the authors use a Huntington’s mouse model to profile the striatal chromatin landscape, finding that the Huntington’s mutation ...
