Insights into RNA‐mediated pathology in new mouse models of Huntington's disease
The behavioral and molecular characterization was performed for Huntington's disease mouse models expressing a fragment of the human HTT gene, with mutation of ~100 CAG repeats, in the nontranslated version (HD/100CAG) and the translated version (HD/100Q). Abstract Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative polyglutamine (polyQ) disease resulting
