Neuronal Targets of Mutant Huntingtin Genetic Reduction to Ameliorate Huntington’s Disease Pathogenesis in Mice

Huntington’s disease (HD) is a fatal dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG repeat expansion leading to an elongated polyglutamine stretch in Huntingtin1. Mutant Huntingtin (mHTT) is ubiquitously expressed but elicits selective cortical and striatal neurodegeneration in HD2....
