A 12-year study reveals how disrupted sleep may predict Huntington’s disease onset, could link to changes in thinking and ...

Pridopidine (previously called huntexil) is an experimental oral drug being developed primarily for Huntington’s disease (HD) ...

New research maps Huntington’s disease progression like a symphony unraveling. The brain first overcommunicates, then loses sync, and finally falls silent, each stage driven by different biological ...

The Huntington’s disease mutation worsens over time like a dangerous snowball. By harnessing the power of the gene editing tool CRISPR, scientists may have found a way to interrupt the HD mutation and ...

This is a bit like a detective catching a villain earlier in a mystery, before they cause more havoc. The HDDMS gives doctors and researchers a sharper magnifying glass to track the disease’s subtle ...

Transplanting healthy human glial cells into HD mouse brains improved movement, memory, and survival. Even more strikingly, the glia coaxed diseased neurons to behave more like healthy ones, offering ...

The HDBuzz editorial team had a virtual sit-down with HDBuzz founder, editor emeritus, Huntington’s disease (HD) researcher, and neurologist Professor Ed Wild. We laughed, we cried… actually we just ...

After receiving a high dose of uniQure’s gene therapy for Huntington’s disease, a few patients experienced serious side effects, but are now recovering. HDBuzz explores what this means for the ...

A highly-anticipated scientific paper has landed! This new work challenges current theories in Huntington’s disease research, uncovering how runaway CAG repeats erode cell identity in certain types of ...

Roche gave an update this week about GENERATION HD2, testing the HTT-lowering drug tominersen in people with HD. The trial is continuing, but only the higher dose will move forward. What does this ...

Hello from Palm Springs! The HDBuzz team are here and ready to report on all of the exciting science that we are going to hear over the next 3 days from HD experts who have travelled from all over the ...

The Huntington Study Group holds an annual conference, taking place in Cincinnati in 2024. This meeting includes two days geared toward researchers, clinicians, and industry that focuses on science ...
