Genetic Neurodegenerative Diseases

This cluster of papers explores the molecular mechanisms underlying neurodegenerative diseases such as Huntington's disease, myotonic dystrophy, and ataxias. It focuses on protein aggregation, polyglutamine toxicity, mitochondrial dysfunction, RNA-mediated disorders, chaperone function, gene expression dysregulation, and the role of trinucleotide repeats in neuronal degeneration.
