Huntington's disease is an inherited, autosomal dominant, neurodegenerative disease. It manifests in adults through motor, cognitive, and psychiatric symptoms, typically leading to death in approximately 20 year
Huntington's disease is inherited and caused by the mutated HTT gene, which instructs the brain to make a protein named huntingtin. Huntingtin sustains the function of brain cells and helps contribute to their functions. It's also found in bodily tissue, but its most extensive occurrence is in...
