Identification of Novel Therapeutic Targets for Polyglutamine Diseases That Target Mitochondrial Fragmentation

Huntington’s disease (HD) is one of at least nine polyglutamine diseases caused by a trinucleotide CAG repeat expansion, all of which lead to age-onset neurodegeneration. Mitochondrial dynamics and function are disrupted in HD and other polyglutamine diseases. While multiple studies have found benef...
