Death of neuronal clusters contributes to variance of age at onset in Huntington's disease.

Neurogenetics - 1 Mar 2006

Cajavec Branka, Herzel Hanspeter, Bernard Samuel

Abstract excerpt

Huntington's disease (HD) is a fatal neurodegenerative disease caused by an expanded polyglutamine (polyQ) repeat in the protein huntingtin. Due to selective neuronal loss in the cortex and striatum, HD patients develop various movement disturbances, psychological changes, and dementia. Symptoms...
