CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts ‒ For decades it's been one of the defining mysteries of Huntington's disease. Why does the terrible devastation of mind and body start earlier in some people who ...

Huntington's disease, a fatal hereditary brain disorder, is linked to a genetic mutation that remains harmless for decades before expanding and producing toxic proteins that kill brain cells.

The team found that although functions such as movement, thinking or behavior remained normal for a long time before the onset of symptoms in Huntington's disease, subtle changes to the brain were ...
