Some childhood experiences stay with us, quietly shaping how we feel as adults. For those raised in families with Huntington’s disease, this new study helps make sense of those feelings, and reminds ...

Huntington’s disease doesn’t just damage the brain, it also breaks down muscles and fat, and disrupts nutrition early on. New work suggests there’s a hidden physical decline in early HD, so monitoring ...

Time-restricted eating (TRE) is a form of intermittent fasting. Instead of focusing on how much you eat, TRE focuses on when you eat. A typical schedule might allow meals only between 12 PM and 8 PM ...

July’s HD research roundup: Brain scans, gene editing, glial cells, and even smartphones reveal new ways to track and treat Huntington’s. From sleep to cell power, science is zooming in and bringing ...

Casgevy is the first CRISPR-based drug to make its way through the approval process, all but curing Sickle Cell Disease and it’s paving the way for similar drugs targeting other diseases. Is ...

The HDBuzz editorial team had a virtual sit-down with HDBuzz founder, editor emeritus, Huntington’s disease (HD) researcher, and neurologist Professor Ed Wild. We laughed, we cried… actually we just ...

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 ...

For people at risk of Huntington’s disease, having a baby who might inherit HD can make decisions around planning a family extremely difficult. This article explains the options available, and how ...

Welcome to Day 2 of the Hereditary Disease Foundation (HDF) conference! The morning was spent listening to an interview between a neurologist and their patient living with HD. All HDF meetings begin ...

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 ...

Researchers have detected early changes in brain scans and biomarkers in young people with the Huntington’s disease gene, 20 years before symptoms are predicted to appear. These findings could help ...

Exciting new findings using 3D human lab-grown mini brains inform ongoing HTT-lowering trials and suggest that stem cell transplants for HD may improve cell-to-cell communication and reduce disease ...
