They focused on the Huntington’s mutation, which involves a stretch of DNA in a particular gene where a three-letter sequence – CAG – is repeated at least 40 times. In people without the disease this sequence is repeated just 15 to 35 times. They dis...

Huntington’s disease is passed down from generation to generation in an autosomal dominant manner, meaning that people with a mutation in only one of the two copies of the HTT gene will likely develop the condition. When a person with Huntington’s has children, each child has a one in tw...

What is Huntingtons Disease? Huntington's Disease is a devastating, hereditary, degenerative brain disorder for which there is, at present, no cure and only one FDA-approved treatment (Xenazine) for a symptom of HD.. HD slowly diminishes the affected ind
5 Stages of Huntington’s Disease HD Stage 1: Preclinical stage The preclinical stage is when mild symptoms start appearing, but the doctor has not diagnosed the person to have Huntington’s disease (HD). Symptoms of HD most commonly start between 40 and 60 years of life, but they can app...

This was an unexpected discovery because researchers have previously found PAR levels to be elevated in patients with other neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson's and Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Huntington disease is a genetic disorder that affects the brain and causes the gradual deteriora...
Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by the expansion of a CAG repeat in exon 1 of the gene encoding the huntingtin protein. The abnormal protein contains an expanded polyglutamine tract and is expressed in the brains of HD patients. Intr... NH Taylor,Ikuru Yazawa,Ichiro Kanazawa - 《Interna...
