Is There Any Influence of TBP CAG / CAA Repeats on Huntington's Disease Age at Onset?

2021-07-09

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Huntington's disease (HD) is a genetic neurodegenerative progressive and fatal disease characterized by motor disorder, cognitive impairment and behavioral problems, caused by expanded repeats of CAG trinucleotides in the <italic>HTT </italic>gene. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of <italic>TBP </italic>gene CAG/CAA repeats in conjunction with <italic>HTT</italic>...
