Subtle changes in the brain, detectable through advanced imaging, blood and spinal fluid analysis, happen approximately twenty years before a clinical motor diagnosis in people with Huntington's ...

New research shows that the mutation is, surprisingly, harmless for decades. But it quietly grows into a larger mutation — ...

Scientists have discovered a surprising mechanism by which the inherited genetic mutation known to cause Huntington's disease leads to the death of brain cells. The findings change the understanding ...

About 2,000 people in Australia are affected by Huntington's disease, a fatal and incurable condition that affects the ...

New genetic research shows why some people develop deadly Huntington's disease earlier than others. The findings could lead ...

A study reveals subtle neurodegenerative changes in people with Huntington’s disease gene expansion up to 20 years before ...

Scientists at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard, Harvard Medical School, and McLean Hospital have discovered a surprising mechanism by which the inherited genetic mutation known to cause ...

Recent findings uncover how Huntington's disease develops over time, revealing the mutation's delayed effects on brain cells.

Scientists uncover how a genetic mutation linked to Huntington's disease stays harmless for years before expanding and causing cell death. The study discovers that DNA repeats must exceed 150 CAGs to ...
