Scientists discover a rare genetic quirk that may extend the age of onset in people with Huntington’s disease by boosting ...
To better understand how the MutSβ complex can make the DNA zipper worse, the authors used a technique called cryo-electron ...
A small study from Brazil tested whether stem cells from human dental pulp, the soft tissue inside teeth, could help people with Huntington’s disease (HD). The results hint at small improvements on ...
Huntington’s disease (HD) develops when people have a repetition of the genetic letters C-A-G in their huntingtin gene. People with 40 or more repeats will develop the disease during their lifetime, ...
Data from the HART study of Huntexil for HD symptoms now published, but we still need a new, larger trial ...
People who develop Huntington’s disease (HD) are born with the genetic change that causes the disease. So why does it take decades, usually around 40 to 50 years, for the symptoms of the disease to ...
Last month, we relayed positive news from uniQure’s trial testing AMT-130, a gene therapy delivered via brain surgery to lower huntingtin (HTT). Data released by uniQure in June suggested AMT-130 was ...
We tend to think of DNA as a fixed blueprint, an overarching plan for the biological bricks and bridges that constitute our cells, organs, and bodies. But like any good plan, DNA is actually dynamic ...
The gene MSH3 is getting a lot of attention in HD research lately. New findings suggest MSH3 lowering could halt CAG repeat expansions, offering a new therapeutic avenue. One of the most interesting ...
For those who were following the live tweets from HDBuzz about the CHDI HD Therapeutics Conference or tuned in to the HDSA Convention, we may have caught your attention with the new HD staging system.
