Age-related axonal swellings precede other neuropathological hallmarks in a knock-in mouse model of Huntington's disease
9 May 2014
Abstract excerpt
Axon degeneration precedes cell body death in many age-related neurodegenerative disorders, often determining symptom onset and progression. A sensitive method for revealing axon pathology could indicate whether this is the case also in Huntington's disease (HD), a fatal, devastating neurodegenerative disorder causing progressive deterioration of both physical and mental abilities, and which brain region is...
