Exploring the structural relationship between interviewer and self-rated affective symptoms in Huntington’s disease [PDF]
This study explores the structural relationship between self-report and interview measures of affect in Huntington’s disease. The findings suggest continued use of both to recognize the multidimensionality within a single common consideration of ...

Huntington’s disease (HD) is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder, caused by a CAG/polyglutamine repeat expansion, that results in the aggregation of the huntingtin protein, culminating in the deposition of inclusion bodies in HD patient brains.

Background A major challenge in neurodegenerative diseases concerns identifying biological disease signatures that track with disease progression or respond to an intervention. Several clinical trials in Huntington disease (HD), an inherited, progressive

Clinical and genetic analysis of 29 Brazilian patients with Huntington’s disease-like phenotype [PDF]
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by chorea, behavioral disturbances and dementia, caused by a pathological expansion of the CAG trinucleotide in the HTT gene. Several patients have been recognized with the typical

We have previously shown that the incomplete splicing of exon 1 to exon 2 of the HTT gene results in the production of a small polyadenylated transcript (Httexon1) that encodes the highly pathogenic exon 1 HTT protein.

The personal experience of parenting a child with Juvenile Huntington’s Disease: perceptions across Europe [PDF]
The study reported here presents a detailed description of what it is like to parent a child with juvenile Huntington’s disease in families across four European countries. Its primary aim was to develop and extend findings from a previous UK study.

Gene suppression approaches to neurodegeneration
Gene suppression approaches have emerged over the last 20 years as a novel therapeutic approach for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. These include RNA interference and anti-sense oligonucleotides, both of which act at the post-transcriptional

Huntington’s disease (HD) is a late onset, inherited neurodegenerative disorder for which early pathogenic events remain poorly understood. Here we show that mutant exon 1 HTT proteins are recruited to a subset of cytoplasmic aggregates in the cell ...

Comprehensive behavioral testing in the R6/2 mouse model of Huntington's disease shows no benefit from CoQ10 or minocycline [PDF]
Previous studies of the effects of coenzyme Q10 and minocycline on mouse models of Huntington’s disease have produced conflicting results regarding their efficacy in behavioral tests.

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 ...
