In order to identify signatures that represent mechanisms that are common in HD blood and brain tissue we used the annotated modules from each network (blood, caudate

Intracerebral administration of AAV5 vectors delivering the miHTT candidates for total HTT knock-down or the miSNP50T and miSNP67T candidates for an allele-selective approach

Indeed, a study by our group amongst breast cancer survivors showed that pharmaceutically treated anxiety prior to cancer diagnosis increases the risk of incident CVD, while

RESULTS: We show that loss of corticostriatal, interhemispheric, and intrahemispheric white matter connections at baseline and over 24 months in premanifest Huntington ’s disease

Maximal respiration, spare capacity, and respiration dependent on complex II activity, and indices of mitochondrial respiration were significantly lower in patients with

To further establish mechanistic efficiency, safety, as well as allele selectivity in vivo, we generated AAV5-miHTT-451 and AAV5- miSNP50T-451 vectors and co-injected them bilaterally

This increased risk at very low free protein S levels corresponds to some extent with findings from family studies of protein S deficiency on venous thrombosis
