Huntington’s Disease: Pathogenic Mechanisms and Implications for Therapeutics

Editat de X. William Yang, Myriam Heiman, Leslie M. Thompson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 feb 2024
Huntington's disease (HD) is one of the most common dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disorders, characterized by a clinical triad of movement disorder, cognitive deficits, and psychiatric symptoms. Huntington’s Disease: Pathogenic Mechanisms and Implications for Therapeutics reviews the most up-do-date content on HD pathogenic mechanisms and cutting-edge thinking on therapeutic strategies for HD. Chapters explore areas that include the clinical features and genetic studies of HD, the cellular and molecular biology of normal huntingtin, a range of HD models, the diverse pathogenic mechanisms linked to mutant huntingtin, new approaches to HD pathogenesis, as well as emerging preclinical therapeutic approaches and clinical programs in the field.


  • Reviews the clinical course and genetics of HD
  • Reviews the biology of human huntingtin and HD-relevant cell types
  • Reviews the wide range of pathobiology associated with mutant huntingtin
  • Reviews genetic studies of HD and how these studies are informing the development of new therapeutic approaches
  • Reviews new tools and model systems for basic and translational research in HD, including new human-derived model systems, as well as systems biology and artificial intelligence–driven approaches
  • Provides an overview of new therapeutic approaches and current clinical programs in HD

Recenzii

"Written by prominent leaders in the field, this is not only a must-read for clinicians and researchers of Huntington's disease, but also a highly valuable reference for people in neurodegenerative diseases field in general. The authors did an amazing job, with breadth and depth, in covering a wide range of critical aspects including genetics, molecular and cellular mechanisms of pathogenesis, pathology, patient symptoms and animal model phenotypes, and clinical trials. The literatures covered in this book include historical milestone discoveries as well as the most updated advances in research and therapeutic development. It is truly an indispensable resource for us." -- Chenjian Li, Research Fellow, Hoover Institution, Stanford University
