The roles of Huntingtin Associated Protein 40 in Huntingtin functions and Huntington’s disease pathogenesis
Objective: Huntington’s disease (HD) is caused by an abnormal expansion of a glutamine tract (polyQ) in huntingtin (HTT), a large scaffold protein with numerous reported…Multimodal characterization of the visual network in Huntington’s disease
Objective: To examine the relationship between structural organization, functional processing and task performance of the visual system in a cohort of Huntington’s disease (HD) gene-mutation…Factors underlying reduced aerobic capacity in Huntington disease
Objective: Examine factors underlying aerobic capacity in prodromal and manifest Huntington disease (HD) and matched controls Background: HD results in motor impairments, weight loss, muscle…Changes in GABAergic transmission of striatal neurons in presymptomatic Huntington’s Disease
Objective: To determine whether parameters of synaptic and extrasynaptic GABAergic inhibition of striatal projection neurons are altered in presymptomatic BACHD mice. Background: One attractive early…Pallidal surgery and physiological mechanism in choreic movements
Objective: To investigate the effect of deep brain stimulation (DBS) or coagulation of the internal globus pallidus (GPi) for choreic movements of various disorders and…Huntington Disease-Like 2: A Case Presentation and Review of the Literature
Objective: To present a case of Huntington Disease-Like 2 (HDL2). HDL2 is rare and phenotypically similar to Huntington’s Disease (HD). However the gene, chromosome, and…Gut problems in Huntington’s disease? Evidence for a leaky gut in the R6/2 mouse model of HD
Objective: This project aims to investigate how leaky the gut is in HD, why the gut is leaky, and how this relates to HD symptoms.…Evaluation of Imidazoline 2 binding sites reflecting astroglia pathology in Huntington’s Disease: An in vivo [11C]BU99008 PET study
Objective: We aimed to evaluate the role of astroglia activation in Huntington’s disease gene expansion carriers (HDGECs) using [11C]BU99008 PET, a novel radioligand with high specificity and…What connectivity tells us about neurodegeneration in Huntington disease? A fMRI study
Objective: Our study investigated the impact of Huntington disease (HD) on brain connectivity, through resting-state (RS) fMRI, among the most critical regions associated with physiopathology.…Neuromelanin MRI detects monoaminergic cell loss in Huntington Disease Expansion Gene Carriers.
Objective: To measure, with NM-MRI, the integrity of neuromelanin-containing monoaminergic cells in the SN and LC in Huntington Disease Gene Expansion Carriers (HDGECs) and compare…
