Cellular Localization of Huntingtin in Striatal and Cortical Neurons in Rats: Lack of Correlation with Neuronal Vulnerability in Huntington’s Disease
15 Feb 1999
Abstract excerpt
Immunohistochemistry and single-cell RT-PCR were used to characterize the localization of huntingtin and/or its mRNA in the major types of striatal neurons and in corticostriatal projection neurons in rats. Single-label immunohistochemical studies revealed that striatum contains scattered large neurons rich in huntingtin and more numerous medium-sized neurons moderate in huntingtin. Double-label...
