Dysregulation of Gene Expression in Primary Neuron Models of Huntington's Disease Shows That Polyglutamine-Related Effects on the Striatal Transcriptome May Not Be Dependent on Brain Circuitry
2008
Journal of Neuroscience
Gene expression changes are a hallmark of the neuropathology of Huntington's disease (HD), but the exact molecular mechanisms of this effect remain uncertain. Here, we report that in vitro models of disease comprised of primary striatal neurons expressing N-terminal fragments of mutant huntingtin (via lentiviral gene delivery) faithfully reproduce the gene expression changes seen in human HD. Neither viral infection nor unrelated (enhanced green fluorescent protein) transgene expression had a
