UCI is a leading center for research on Huntington's disease and other related neurodegenerative disorders. Its scientists have helped identify mechanisms underlying HD and are actively pursuing the creation of novel therapies. Earlier this year, study contributor Leslie Thompson of UCI's Sue & Bill ...
Huntington's disease (HD) is a monogenic neurodegenerative disorder resulting from a mutation in thegene. This leads to the expression of the mutant huntingtin protein (mHTT) which provokes pathological changes in both the central nervous system (CNS) and periphery. Accumulating evidence suggests ...
To evaluate the potential for refinement, as well as its implementation in research, we analysed papers on murine models of Huntington's disease (HD) published between 1999 and 2009 (n = 233). Each study was classified according to a four-level severity scale, in terms of the disease stage...
Although our study is focused on Huntington's disease, it will help us learn aboutbrain trainingmore generally, too. We already know that the more often you play a game, the better you get at it. If you play the card game Snap!, for example, you might get much quicker at pairing the...
How many? How big? How fast? These were the only questions that mattered. Ditching school on Friday continued into the winter. Alpine starts. Three hours north to Mount Washington in New Hampshire. Ice climb Huntington’s. Ski Tuckerman’s. All day. Then back to Boston. ...
Thank you for the relevant article on medical marijuana in Missouri. I’ve not researched the law that is going into effect but this gave me the information I needed as a starting point and I can prepare myself for my August doctor’s appointment. ...
Cost |It is believed that virtual cards will cost $40, whereas physical cards will cost $50. It is likely that the card will be valid for up to 12 months. Medical Conditions | Include, but are not limited to:Autism Spectrum Disorder, PTSD, Depression, Crohn’s Disease, Terminal Illness...
A hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases like Huntington's is the progressive death of nerve cells in the brain. The cells don't die quickly, though. They first start to disconnect from each other because their neurites—long finger-like extensions that make connections all through the brain—bec...
Pruning roses is not as complicated as it may seem, though it’s important to follow the right technique based on the type of rose you have. Here’s how—and when—to prune the roses in your garden! Sure, pruning roses can be a chore, but your efforts will be rewarded by a healthie...
