Abstract excerpt
Aggregation of mutant huntingtin (mHTT) is a neurologic hallmark of Huntington disease (HD), a neurodegenerative disorder caused by the expansion of a cytosine-adenine-guanine repeat tract in the huntingtin gene (HTT). With a considerable number of candidate therapeutic interventions aimed at lowering mHTT expression under investigation, noninvasive monitoring of changes in mHTT aggregate levels in the brain...
