Cell Reprogramming to Model Huntington’s Disease: A Comprehensive Review

Abstract: Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the progressive decline of motor, cognitive, and psychiatric functions. HD results from an autosomal dominant mutation that causes a trinucleotide CAG repeat expansion and the production of mutant Huntingtin protein (mHTT). This results in the initial selective and progressive loss of medium spiny neurons (MSNs) in the striatum before progressing to involve the whole brain. There are currently no effective treatments to prevent or delay… Show more

“…Human data from HD patients derive mainly from post-mortem samples, taken mainly for histochemistry studies, thus representing the end stage of the disease. In recent years, it has become possible to generate human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC), and this capacity of reprogramming human fibroblast into neurons in vitro has aided in the study of HD [ 239 ]. Regarding glial cells, there are a few studies that have used hiPSC to generate these cells.…”
