Vascular innervation and blood-brain barrier dysfunction in Huntington’s disease using human iPSC-derived vascularized brain organoids.
Aperçu du projet
"Vascular pathology, such as loss of neurovascular coupling and disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), has been documented in Huntington’s disease (HD). Loss of BBB integrity could lead to altered brain homeostasis and exacerbated neuroinflammation, which would aggravate neurodegenerative processes occurring over the course of HD onset and progression. Therefore,…

Aperçu du projet
"Background:Within the realm of neurodegenerative diseases, there is still a lack of effective disease-modifying treatments. Huntington’s Disease (HD) is no less immune to this issue, with only symptomatic treatment options being available for patients. In other neurodegenerative diseases, a Dual Leucine Zipper Kinase (DLK) has been identified as a novel…

Aperçu du projet
"Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) are synthetic single-stranded DNA/RNA that are useful in the targeting of mRNA sequences. Their versatility allows them to enhance potency, longevity and bioavailability, making them a popular therapeutic for neurodegenerative diseases and a leading approach in clinical trials for Huntington disease (HD). However, the blood-brain barrier…

Aperçu du projet
"Huntington’s disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive motor impairment and cognitive decline. Mitochondrial dysfunction is a central feature of HD pathophysiology, contributing significantly to neuronal death. Heritable mutant huntingtin protein disrupts mitochondrial dynamics, impairs oxidative phosphorylation and leads to bioenergetic deficits. A key component of…
