Behavioral abnormalities precede neuropathological markers in rats transgenic for Huntington's disease
19 Sept 2006
Abstract excerpt
Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by an expanded CAG repeat leading to the synthesis of an aberrant protein and to the formation of polyglutamine (polyQ)-containing inclusions and aggregates. Limited information is available concerning the association of neuropathological markers with the development of behavioral markers in HD. Using a previously generated transgenic rat model of HD (tgHD rat), we performed...
