However, compared to the control group, subtle changes were detected in brain scans and spinal fluid biomarkers of those with Huntington's disease gene expansion. This indicates that the ...

Mouse studies demonstrated that newly generated neurons connect with brain networks responsible for motor control.

Feb. 11, 2025 — A new study has discovered in mouse models that genes associated with repairing mismatched DNA are critical in eliciting damages to neurons that are most vulnerable in Huntington ...

New research shows that the adult brain can generate new neurons that integrate into key motor circuits, findings that may ...

Sometimes, other tests, such as blood or brain imaging, are ordered to help rule out other medical conditions. Several therapies can help manage the symptoms of Huntington’s disease. Even with ...

New research shows that the adult brain can generate new neurons that integrate into key motor circuits. The findings demonstrate that stimulating natural brain processes may help repair damaged ...

Caption Shown are MRI scans of a Huntington’s disease (HD) sufferer’s brain (left) and a normal brain (right). In the HD brain, many brain cells have died and fluid (black areas) has filled in ...

a region of the brain devastated by Huntington’s disease. The idea that the adult brain retains the capacity to produce new neurons, called adult neurogenesis, was first described by Goldman and ...
