Cell Type-Specific Transcriptomics Reveals that Mutant Huntingtin Leads to Mitochondrial RNA Release and Neuronal Innate Immune Activation

Lee, Fenster, et al. conduct striatal cell type-specific transcriptomics in mouse models of HD and human HD. Their findings reveal that mutant huntingtin leads to the release of mitochondrial RNAs and activation of innate immune signaling in neurons in a manner that correlates with striatal cell vul...
