A Critical Review of White Matter Changes in Huntington’s Disease
Huntington’s disease is a genetic neurodegenerative disorder. White matter alterations have recently been identified as a relevant pathophysiological feature of Huntington’s disease, but their etiology and role in disease pathogenesis and progression ...

Effect of post-mortem delay on N-terminal huntingtin protein fragments in human control and Huntington disease brain lysates. [PDF]
Huntington disease is associated with elongation of a CAG repeat in the HTT gene that results in a mutant huntingtin protein. Several studies have implicated N-terminal huntingtin protein fragments in Huntington disease pathogenesis.
