Progression of motor subtypes in Huntington’s disease. a 6-year follow-up study [PDF]
The objective of this study is to investigate the progression of predominantly choreatic and hypokinetic-rigid signs in Huntington's disease (HD) and their relationship with cognitive and general functioning over time.

Cortical circuit alterations precede motor impairments in Huntington's disease mice [PDF]
Huntington's disease (HD) is a devastating hereditary movement disorder, characterized by degeneration of neurons in the striatum and cortex. Studies in human patients and mouse HD models suggest that disturbances of neuronal function in the neocortex ...

Novel Nut and Bolt Task Quantifies Motor Deficits in Premanifest and Manifest Huntington’s Disease
We investigated the use of a simple novel nut and bolt task in premanifest and manifest Huntington's disease (HD) patients to detect and quantify motor impairments at all stages of the disease.Premanifest HD (n=24), manifest HD (n=27) and control (n=32) participants were asked to screw a nut onto a bolt in one direction, using three different sized ...

Neural Stem Cells as a Model to Study Huntington’s Disease
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a heritable neurodegenerative disorder that affects muscle coordination and diminishes cognitive abilities, by affecting the medium spiny neurons in the brain. In HD patients, neurons are damaged and destroyed because of the toxicity of the mutant Huntington protein (mHtt).

Neuropathological investigations of three murine models of Huntington’s disease [PDF]
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a purely genetic neurodegenerative disorder affecting approximately 1 in 10,000 people. It is most commonly associated with excessive involuntary movement, or chorea, combined with varying degrees of other motor ...
