The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in Huntington's disease. [PDF]
The accumulation of mutant protein is a common feature of neurodegenerative disease. In Huntington's disease, a polyglutamine expansion in the huntingtin protein triggers neuronal toxicity.

ABSTRACT Background Huntington's disease has a disruptive effect on entire families. While previous reviews have examined lived experiences of individuals with Huntington's Disease, their informal caregivers, or their offspring, none have provided a comprehensive overview that integrates these three perspectives. Design A scoping review. Aims Providing

ABSTRACT Assessing variation in social behaviors of group‐living animals may provide insight into the impacts of population stressors. Using very high resolution (VHR) satellite imagery acquired over 3 years, we compared social group size and composition, as well as spatial and social cohesion in three beluga (Delphinapterus leucas) populations that ...

ABSTRACT The number of inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) in newborn screening (NBS) programs has increased significantly in the past decades. For some of the IMDs included in NBS (e.g., tyrosinemia type I), there are clear and substantial health benefits of NBS, while for others (e.g., very long chain acyl CoA dehydrogenase deficiency and 3 ...

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.

IKK phosphorylates Huntingtin and targets it for degradation by the proteasome and lysosome [PDF]
Expansion of the polyglutamine repeat within the protein Huntingtin (Htt) causes Huntington's disease, a neurodegenerative disease associated with aging and the accumulation of mutant Htt in diseased neurons.

Abstract Background Africans are underrepresented in Huntington's disease (HD) research. A European ancestor was postulated to have introduced the mutant Huntingtin (mHtt) gene to the continent; however, recent work has shown the existence of a unique Htt haplotype in South‐Africa specific to indigenous Africans.
