Cross-Sectional Gender Comparison of Gray Matter Concentration in Prodromal Huntington’s Disease
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by an abnormal repetition of the cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG) trinucleotide in the HTT gene. This polyglutamine mutation causes behavioral, cognitive, and motor abnormalities such as chorea. Additionally, HD is characterized by stria...
