The Clinical Manifestation of Homozygous Huntington's Disease
ABSTRACT Huntington's disease is an incurable neurodegenerative disease with deficits in many areas including cognitive, psychiatric, and most notably, motor. It is autosomal dominant, meaning one affected allele is enough to express the condition.

Spatiotemporal dynamics of the postnatal developing primate brain transcriptome. [PDF]
Developmental changes in the temporal and spatial regulation of gene expression drive the emergence of normal mature brain function, while disruptions in these processes underlie many neurodevelopmental abnormalities.

Epigenetics and triplet-repeat neurological diseases [PDF]
The term ‘junk DNA’ has been reconsidered following the delineation of the functional significance of repetitive DNA regions. Typically associated with centromeres and telomeres, DNA repeats are found in nearly all organisms throughout their genomes ...

Inhibition of the NLRP3 Inflammasome With MCC950 Improves Gut Health in Huntington's Disease Mice
The NLRP3 inflammasome in HD (Huntington's disease) peripheral pathology (in gastrointestinal complications) is vastly unexplored. In this preclinical study, non‐invasive readouts of gut function assessment revealed that inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome by chronic administration of MCC950 by oral route softened the faecal pellets, improved faecal output ...

Role of mitochondrial raft-like microdomains in the regulation of cell apoptosis [PDF]
Lipid rafts are envisaged as lateral assemblies of specific lipids and proteins that dissociate and associate rapidly and form functional clusters in cell membranes.

Childhood-onset (Juvenile) Huntington's disease: A rare case report
Huntington′s disease (HD) is a rare dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disorder characterized clinically by a combination of abnormal involuntary (choreic) movements, neuropsychiatric manifestations, and dementia.

Background There is a pressing need to improve the accuracy of rare disease clinical study endpoints. Neutral theory, first described here, can be used to assess the accuracy of endpoints and improve their selection in rare disease clinical studies ...

The psychosocial impacts of Huntington's disease include disintegration with society, emotional and psychological burdens, an interplay of extrinsic stressors and recalibration of the family system. This thematic synthesis highlights the need for holistic, systemic support to address these pervasive challenges for all members of the affected family ...
