HD is triggered by an expanded polyglutamine tract (glutamine repeats) in the huntingtin protein, leading to misfolding of the protein and subsequent accumulation of mutant huntingtin (mHtt) in the nuclei of different types of neurons. In contrast, in PD, dopamine (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) degenerate; moreover, th... VO - IS - SP - OP - KW - pharmacy N1 - PP - ER -
