The new twist in this latest study from Brazil is where the stem cells come from. Researchers used human dental pulp stem cells, collected from the soft tissue inside teeth, to create an experimental ...

October was an insight-rich month in Huntington’s disease research: additional clarity around uniQure’s AMT-130, mapping how and where HD changes the brain, early mechanistic studies targeting DNA ...

Huntington’s disease (HD) develops when people have a repetition of the genetic letters C-A-G in their huntingtin gene. People with 40 or more repeats will develop the disease during their lifetime, ...

Not every news source put out a headline that exaggerated the results. Some of the more level-headed articles underscored ...

This month, HDBuzz is attending the first Huntington’s Disease (HD) Clinical Research Congress in Nashville, Tennessee. Gathered at this meeting are hundreds of scientists, doctors, and industry ...

A new study in mouse models reveals how Huntington’s disease (HD) disrupts brain development over time, even long before symptoms appear. Using advanced sequencing tools and spatial transcriptomics, a ...

We’re back for Day 2 of Huntington’s Disease (HD) Clinical Research Congress in Nashville, Tennessee! Daniel Claassen from HSG and Cristina Sampaio from CHDI kick off the meeting with an overview of ...

Huntington’s disease (HD) is caused by repeating C-A-G letters of genetic code that are too long. Everyone who develops HD is born with 36 or more CAG repeats, but not everyone with 36 or more CAG ...
