Striatal Pre-Enkephalin Overexpression Improves Huntington’s Disease Symptoms in the R6/2 Mouse Model of Huntington’s Disease

The reduction of pre-enkephalin (pENK) mRNA expression might be an early sign of striatal neuronal dysfunction in Huntington’s disease (HD), due to mutated huntingtin protein. Indeed, striatopallidal (pENK-containing) neurodegeneration occurs at earlier stage of the disease, compare to the loss of s...
