NEW YORK, Aug. 19 -- The Huntington's Disease Society of America issued the following news:
The effect of the HD genetic expansion on brain development has been a hot topic in HD research. A team of researchers led by Dr. Sandrine Humbert at the Grenoble Institut Neurosciences, examined human fetal tissue to show that the mutant HD gene causes very early changes in the patterns of early brain development. But what type of influence do these changes in development actually have? Peop . . .
