Background
Previous studies suggest a link between CAG repeat number in the HTT gene and non‐Huntington neurodegenerative diseases.
Objective
The aim is to analyze whether expanded HTT CAG alleles and/or their size are associated with the risk for developing α‐synucleinopathies or their behavior as modulators of the phenotype.
Methods
We genotyped the HTT gene CAG repeat number and APOE‐Ɛ isoforms...
