Ascorbate treatment attenuates the Huntington behavioral phenotype in mice.

Neuroreport - 1 Jul 2003

Rebec George V, Barton Scott J, Marseilles Ann M, Collins Kristin

Abstract excerpt

The R6/2 mouse line expresses exon 1 of the human gene for Huntington disease (HD) and shows behavioral symptoms as early as 6 weeks of age. In the striatum, a forebrain target of HD, these animals show a behavior-related deficit in extracellular ascorbate, the deprotonated form of vitamin C. We...
