Atypical manifestation of Huntington's disease (HD) could inform ongoing research into HD genetic modifiers not present in the primarily European populations studied to date. This work demonstrates that expanding HD genetic testing into under-resourced healthcare settings can benefit both local communities and ongoing research into HD etiology and new therapies.
亨廷顿舞蹈症(HD)的非典型表现可为目前对HD基因修饰因子的研究提供信息,这些修饰因子在迄今为止主要研究的欧洲人群中并不存在。这项工作表明,将HD基因检测扩展到资源不足的医疗环境中,既能使当地社区受益,也能推动目前对HD病因和新疗法的研究。
