Neuroprotective effects of <scp>PPAR</scp>‐γ agonist rosiglitazone in N171‐82Q mouse model of Huntington's disease
4 Feb 2013
Abstract excerpt
Huntington's disease (HD) is a devastating genetic neurodegenerative disease caused by CAG trinucleotide expansion in the exon-1 region of the huntingtin gene. Currently, no cure is available. It is becoming increasingly apparent that mutant Huntingtin (HTT) impairs metabolic homeostasis and causes transcriptional dysregulation. The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) is a transcriptional...
