Challenges and advances for huntingtin detection in cerebrospinal fluid: in support of relative quantification
2024-09-27
Abstract excerpt
Huntington disease (HD) is a progressive and devastating neurodegenerative disease caused by expansion of a glutamine-coding CAG tract in the huntingtin ( HTT ) gene above a critical threshold of ∼35 repeats resulting in expression of mutant HTT (mHTT). A promising treatment approach being tested in clinical trials is HTT lowering, which aims to reduce levels of the mHTT protein. Target engagement of these therap...
