Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Previous studies suggest a link between CAG repeat number in the HTT gene and non-Huntington neurodegenerative diseases. OBJECTIVE: The aim is to analyze whether expanded HTT CAG alleles and/or their size are associated with the risk for developing α-synucleinopathies or their behavior as modulators of the phenotype. METHODS: We genotyped the HTT gene CAG repeat number and APOE-Ɛ isoforms in a...
