Exploring the structural relationship between interviewer and self-rated affective symptoms in Huntington’s disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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 ...

The heat shock response, determined by QuantiGene multiplex, is impaired in HD mouse models and not caused by HSF1 reduction

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
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.

Abnormal molecular signatures of inflammation, energy metabolism, and vesicle biology in human Huntington disease peripheral tissues

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2022
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]

open access: yes, 2011
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

Silencing Srsf6 does not modulate incomplete splicing of the huntingtin gene in Huntington’s disease models

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
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]

open access: yes, 2013
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

open access: yesAlzheimer’s Research & Therapy, 2017
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

Correlative light and electron microscopy suggests that mutant huntingtin dysregulates the endolysosomal pathway in presymptomatic Huntington’s disease

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2021
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]

open access: yes, 2010
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.

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

open access: yes, 2015
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 ...
