Testicular degeneration in Huntington disease
Huntington disease (HD) is an adult onset, neurodegenerative disorder that results from CAG expansion in the HD gene. Recent work has demonstrated testicular degeneration in mouse models of HD and alterations in the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal (HPG ...

NMDA receptor gene variations as modifiers in Huntington disease: a replication study. [PDF]
Several candidate modifier genes which, in addition to the pathogenic CAG repeat expansion, influence the age at onset (AO) in Huntington disease (HD) have already been described.

Observing Huntington's disease: the European Huntington's Disease Network's REGISTRY
BACKGROUND: Huntington's disease (HD) is a rare triplet repeat (CAG) disorder. Advanced, multi-centre, multi-national research frameworks are needed to study simultaneously multiple complementary aspects of HD. This includes the natural history of HD, its management and the collection of clinical information and biosamples for research. METHODS:

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

Astrocytes and Huntington’s Disease
In this Viewpoint, we summarize and discuss the recent serendipitous discovery of an astrocyte Kir4.1 potassium channel dysfunction in two mouse models of Huntington's disease (HD). Restoration of Kir4.1 channels within astrocytes in vivo attenuated neuronal dysfunction, some aspects of motor dysfunction and increased survival time in a HD mouse model.
