TAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — For the first time, scientists have successfully treated someone suffering from Huntington’s disease, a fatal genetic illness with no cure. The Mayo Clinic reports that the ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — A decade ago, University at Buffalo researchers shed some light on an enduring neuroscience mystery: How exactly does a mutated huntingtin protein (HTT) cause Huntington’s disease?

Huntington’s disease is a brain disorder that can affect various functions, including the ability to swallow — particularly as the disease progresses. Huntington’s disease is a neurogenerative ...

A new discovery offers hope for Huntington’s disease. This discovery provides hope that a DNA repair process may help slow or stop disease progression. Research has identified a critical DNA repair ...

Scientists may have discovered the first therapy for Huntington’s disease, a brain disorder that until now has had no effective treatments. Researchers at the University of College London (UCL) ...

While Huntington’s disease is progressive and worsens over time, understanding what is to come can help someone with this condition plan for the road ahead. Huntington’s disease is a neurodegenerative ...

Preliminary results from a small trial offer the clearest evidence yet that the brain disease’s progression can be slowed. A one-time gene therapy can markedly slow the progression of Huntington’s ...

Huntington’s disease is a neurological (brain) condition that causes involuntary movement, changes to emotions, behavior, and thinking. Huntington’s is a genetic disease that worsens over time.
