My husband has HD. He was in the clinical trial which recently ended abruptly. It is heartbreaking to watch him decline. Thank you for this video and your studies.
I'm sorry about your husband. My wife's mother had HD and it was gut wrenching to watch the decline. I met her but never knew her because she was already so detached from reality.
My father has it and I was tested not too long ago and the results terrified me. I'm 36 years old and not looking forward to this taking over my mind and body as I get older.
I feel you It's runs on My mom side of the family. My uncle died of it years ago very early. But all 3 of my aunts died in the last year. Now my mom is in the hospital with a week left. They removed her feeding tubes. She is not able to move anything but her eyes. She is in a weird comma were she appears to be a sleep. She is snoring and everything but her eyes still open. Her body won't let her wake up fully. 😢 The whole family went to say there good Byes. She actually had tears running down her face. Now 1 my brother has it and 1 of my cousins so far. The rest haven't been tested. It's been a dark cloud hanging over my family😂
I just wanted to say thank you, I started looking into this after Huntington’s took my twin sisters life at the age 21 and a half....you’re video helped me better understand the disease that took my sisters life.....honestly to this day I have never been to the doctors to see if I had it myself mainly for being to scared to know if I have it....but trying to build up the courage to hopefully go in for the test
Have you gone for the test yet? Trust me from someone who knows, knowing is better than not. It’s hard to find out, but once that moment is over you can enjoy your life no matter how much time you have left.
My father got diagnosed with HD two days ago at age 55. Sadly he got diagnosed pretty late. He's already in a stage where he is barely able to get out his bed. I am 26 years old, in the prime of my life and all of a sudden I am scared. I'm unable to sleep because of this and I don't know if I want to do that test.
My grandmother had it and died because of the disease.My aunt also unfortunately has this horrible disease.It skipped my mother who is older than my aunt and my uncle,who is younger then my aunt.I hope that one day they can cure this horrible disease.Prayers goes out to all that has this and their familys. 🙏🙏❤❤
My brother has Huntington's Disease - this video is a big help in understanding this disease - thank you for your efforts in the research of this disease and good luck with your work.

I feel very fortunate that my mother doesn't carry the gene for it. Watching my grandmother's siblings and my cousins suffer has been awful. Side note, the side of my family who carries Huntington's disease emigrated to the U.S. from northern Ireland. I just thought that was interesting.
Yea, that is interesting! I think there is a lot of cases in N. Ireland compared to the size of the population but it isn't well studied or resourced there.
Just lost my father-in-law at age 48 to this disease. Due to the lack of study we were not able to get him help in time and I am scared my husband has the gene.
Thank you for this great information! We have HD in my family and I am going to get myself testet in the comming weeks. This video gives a great explenation of the disease and how Forms.

Heat-shock Proteins may be a key focus in the understatement of htt. HSP70 is a chaperon and sometimes will not recognize the htt protein meaning if we can use CRISPR to modify this gene we can and will understand this gene and find medical intervention
I’m very sorry for you’re loss. ❤ I’m here today because I’m learning about it at med school. I hope they come up with a cure one day so that no one has to go through this. Once again, I am very sorry sir.
One of my aunts on my father's side of the family has HD. And when I found out that it is genetic in my father's side of the family. I got tested for the gene and it came back negative. But I am always keeping myself up to date with what is new in treatments for HD. But for my aunt, the effects of the HD have started to take effect on her.

Recent research is showing that certain parts of the body has unstable CAG repeats where they tend to increase more parts of the brain most affected in HD. The CAG repeat people get from their genetic test tends to be from blood or salvia and these tend to be more stable and not change much over a lifetime. They can also be unstable when passing from one parent to the child. They tend to be more unstable when it comes from the father which is the only big gender difference in HD. There are regions of the world with higher prevalence. It is more common in Caucasian populations. There are also clusters of extremely higher prevalence in parts of Latin America.
My mum, brother and myself have HD which was inherited from my mum my sister doesn’t have it . Both my brother and mum got hit with CAG repeats of 17/41 and myself 17/44.

What about the relationship of Huntington's disease and neurotoxins like aluminum, acetaminophen, flouride, mercury, lead...etc... or even the correlation between the gut microbiome and the countless toxins found in processed foods like GMOs, pesticides, food additives, colorings, synthetic vitamins, antibiotics, neurotoxic psychiatric medications being taken while pregnant, the neurotoxins found in vaccines.... or the relationship with vitamin deficiencies like fat soluble vitamins A, D, and K2? Or the Omega-3 deficiencies in the diet? What if changing the "chemical, emotional and environmental stressors" played a major role in the gene expression? What about cholesterol deficient dietary pregnant women along with a lack of fat soluble vitamins while pregnant? Our brains need cholesterol and healthy fats like Omega 3 to properly form and mature? Have you studied any of these as possible solutions?
Dear Brian, thank you for your interest in our studies related to Huntington's disease. We kindly advise you to contact medinfo.roche.com/ if you wish to receive more information. We wish you all the best, Your Roche TH-cam team
Agree, especially since this condition came about a little after the industrial revolution, same thing with heart disease appearing after vegetable/corn/cottonseed oils were replacing animal fats in cooking.
If the mechanism that causes Huntington's disease is the formation of stop codons after cytosines are transformed in thymines due to inadvertent methylation of said cytosines, then maybe existing drugs inhibitors of cytosine methyltransferase, could slow down the damage in neurons. The presence of truncated proteins in neurons could point to the formation of stop codons TAG replacing CAG.
There is an aberrant splice site in the non coding region between exon 1 and 2 that is linked with more extreme CAG repeat lengths. This results in the truncated htt exon 1 fragment which is very pathogenic. To my knowledge, there is no evidence for stop codons forming within the CAG repeat tract itself.

Hi Kohmelo, Great question. Alzheimer's is the most common type of dementia, affecting ~50 million people worldwide. It is a progressive brain disease characterised by a decline in memory, language and other thinking skills, as well as changes in mood and behaviour. Huntington's disease is a rare, genetic, neurodegenerative disease, which severely affects a person’s everyday functions, such as moving and thinking. Huntington's is caused by a change (mutation) in a single huntingtin gene (HTT), which triggers the formation of toxic (mutant) huntingtin protein (mHTT). If you'd like further information, we'd encourage you to reach out to your local patient advocacy organisation, which for Huntington's can be found here: huntington-disease.org/findyournationalorganization/ and for Alzheimer's here: www.alz.co.uk/associations

EXACTLY!!! They need to be looking for the root cause, not how to make millions off pharmaceuticals for it.
yes indeed, i have no doubt that all those things cause HD. it is like for example: Alzheimer is caused by gluten...(and this is a fact...)
That is true. Need to look at the environment. So many toxins in our everyday lives that can be detrimental to our health.
Agree, especially since this condition came about a little after the industrial revolution, same thing with heart disease appearing after vegetable/corn/cottonseed oils were replacing animal fats in cooking.
Stay safe

How does this differ from Alzheimers? Do Huntingtons's disease cause memory loss?
Hi Kohmelo,
Great question.
Alzheimer's is the most common type of dementia, affecting ~50 million people worldwide. It is a progressive brain disease characterised by a decline in memory, language and other thinking skills, as well as changes in mood and behaviour.
Huntington's disease is a rare, genetic, neurodegenerative disease, which severely affects a person’s everyday functions, such as moving and thinking. Huntington's is caused by a change (mutation) in a single huntingtin gene (HTT), which triggers the formation of toxic (mutant) huntingtin protein (mHTT).
