Huntington's disease (HD) is a progressive neurodegenerative genetic disorder which leads to motor, cognitive and psychiatric disturbances. The primary neuropathological hallmark is atrophy of the striatum. Cannabinoid CB1 receptors (CB1Rs) are particularly enriched in the striatum and previous works indicate their early loss of expression in HD, even before symptom occurrence. However, pathophysiological...
We have evaluated the neuroprotective effects of citicoline in relevant phenotypic models of Huntington's disease induced by either the mitochondrial inhibitor 3-nitropropionic acid or the N-methyl-d-aspartate agonist quinolinic acid, which, respectively, reproduce the metabolic defect or the excitotoxicity seen in the disease. We found that citicoline failed to reverse behavioural and histological...
