Pathological cell-cell interactions are necessary for striatal pathogenesis in a conditional mouse model of Huntington's disease
A critical issue in understanding Huntington's disease (HD) pathogenesis is how the ubiquitously expressed mutant huntingtin (mhtt) with an expanded polyglutamine repeat can cause selective toxicity of striatal and cortical neurons. Two potential cellular models may contribute to such specifici...
