Last month, we relayed positive news from uniQure’s trial testing AMT-130, a gene therapy delivered via brain surgery to lower huntingtin (HTT). Data released by uniQure in June suggested AMT-130 was ...

We’re proud to announce Jenna Hanrahan as a 2025 HDBuzz Prize winner! People with HD may be unaware of their symptoms, not out of denial but due to real changes in the brain. MRI scans give new clues ...

Prilenia has publicly shared the data from the PROOF-HD study over the course of the last few years, at HD conferences and other research events. This recent paper reiterates the main points – overall ...

SKY-0515, an oral drug, safely lowers huntingtin in people with HD and may also reduce PMS1. This could offer a possible ...

We’re proud to announce Nicolo Zarotti as a 2025 HDBuzz Prize winner! A new case study shows Acceptance & Commitment Therapy ...

For Huntington’s disease (HD), a lot of attention goes to the genetic change that causes HD, but new research is shining a light on something else – our epigenome. The word literally means, “above” ...

HDBuzz: 2024 was a big year for HD research, particularly in the clinical space. Which breakthroughs or advances in HD research from the past year are you particularly excited about? HDBuzz Editors-in ...

A new study led by researchers from the University of California Irvine gives us new clues as to how genetic message molecules are edited differently in the context of Huntington’s disease (HD). Let’s ...

While HD and dementia may have different root causes, underlying factors that are beneficial for one will be beneficial for the other. Dementia is a general term for a reduced cognitive ability – the ...

A 14-year study tracking NfL levels in people with the HD gene shows this tiny protein can signal disease progression many years before symptoms start. The longest follow-up study yet adds weight to ...

In two recent studies, researchers looked at how different parts of the brain are affected by CAG expansions in Huntington’s disease (HD) at the level of individual brain cells. The scientists looked ...
