Mutant huntingtin fragmentation in immune cells tracks Huntington's disease progression. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Huntington's disease (HD) is a fatal, inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expanded CAG repeat in the gene encoding huntingtin (HTT). Therapeutic approaches to lower mutant HTT (mHTT) levels are expected to proceed to human trials, but ...

Visual system integrity and cognition in early Huntington's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Posterior cortical volume changes and abnormal visuomotor performance are present in patients with Huntington's disease (HD). However, it is unclear whether posterior cortical volume loss contributes to abnormal neural activity, and whether activity ...

Clinical presentation of juvenile Huntington disease [PDF]

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2006
OBJECTIVE: To describe the clinical presentation a group of patients with juvenile onset of Huntington disease. METHOD: All patients were interviewed following a structured clinical questioner. Patients were genotyped for the trinucleotide cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG) repeat in the Huntington Disease gene.

“Ectopic” theta oscillations and interictal activity during slow-wave state in the R6/1 mouse model of Huntington's disease

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2012
The pathophysiology of Huntington's disease (HD) is primarily associated with striatal degeneration and a number of behavioral symptoms such as involuntary movements, cognitive decline, psychiatric disorders, and in the most juvenile-onset cases with ...

Brain microvascular endothelial cell dysfunction in an isogenic juvenile iPSC model of Huntington’s disease

open access: yesFluids and Barriers of the CNS, 2022
Huntington’s disease (HD) is an inherited neurodegenerative disease caused by expansion of cytosine–adenine–guanine (CAG) repeats in the huntingtin gene, which leads to neuronal loss and decline in cognitive and motor function.

Juvenile‐Onset Huntington Disease Pathophysiology and Neurodevelopment: A Review [PDF]

open access: yesMovement Disorders, 2021
ABSTRACTHuntington disease is an autosomal dominant inherited brain disorder that typically becomes manifest in adulthood. Juvenile‐onset Huntington disease refers to approximately 5% of patients with symptom onset before the age of 21 years. The causal factor is a pathologically expanded CAG repeat in the Huntingtin gene.

The Association between CAG Repeat Length and Age of Onset of Juvenile-Onset Huntington’s Disease

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2020
There is a known negative association between cytosine–adenine–guanine (CAG) repeat length and the age of motor onset (AMO) in adult-onset Huntington’s Disease (AOHD).

Short-interval observational data to inform clinical trial design in Huntington's disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate candidate outcomes for disease-modifying trials in Huntington's disease (HD) over 6-month, 9-month and 15-month intervals, across multiple domains.

Postnatal Foxp2 regulates early psychiatric-like phenotypes and associated molecular alterations in the R6/1 transgenic mouse model of Huntington's disease

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2022
Huntington's Disease (HD) is a devastating disorder characterized by a triad of motor, psychiatric and cognitive manifestations. Psychiatric and emotional symptoms appear at early stages of the disease which are consistently described by patients and ...

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

open access: yes, 2016
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 ...
