Modulation of energy deficiency in Huntington's disease via activation of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma.

Human Molecular Genetics, Aug 06, 2010

Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disease caused by the expansion of a CAG trinucleotide repeat in exon 1 of the huntingtin (HTT) gene. Here, we report that the transcript of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ, a transcription factor that is critical for energy homeostasis, was markedly downregulated in multiple tissues of a mouse model (R6/2) of HD and in lymphocytes of HD patients.
