Petersén Å, Chase K, Puschban Z, DiFiglia M, Brundin P and Aronin N.Experimental Neurology 175: 297-300 (2002)AbstractA transgenic mouse model of Huntington's disease (R6/1 and R6/2 lines) expressing exon 1 of the HD gene with 115-150 CAG repeats resisted striatal damage following injection of quinolinic acid and other neurotoxins. We examined whether excitotoxin resistance characterizes mice with

Petersén Å and Brundin P.International Review of Neurobiology 53: 315-339 (2002) SummaryThe Huntington's disease (HD) has stimulated novel clinical drug trials based on the ideas about mechanisms of cell death in the disorder. A recent study investigated the effects of remacemide and coenzyme Q on progression of symptoms in HD. These drugs are an N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) antagonist and a mitoch

Petersén Å, Larsen KE, Behr GG, Romero N, Przedborski S, Brundin P and Sulzer D.Human Molecular Genetics 10: 1243-1254 (2001)AbstractHuntington's disease (HD) is caused by an expanded CAG repeat in exon 1 of the gene coding for the huntingtin protein. The cellular pathway by which this mutation induces HD remains unknown, although alterations in protein degradation are involved. To study intrinsic
