We recently reported evidence for disturbed synaptic versus extrasynaptic NMDAR transmission in the early pathogenesis of Huntington's disease (HD), a late-onset neurodegenerative disorder caused by CAG repeat expansion in the gene encoding huntingtin. Studies in glutamatergic cells indicate that synaptic NMDAR transmission increases phosphorylated cyclic-AMP response element binding protein (pCREB)...
Huntington disease (HD) is a dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disease caused by a polyglutamine (polyQ) expansion in the protein huntingtin (htt). Previous studies have shown enhanced N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)-induced excitotoxicity in neuronal models of HD, mediated in part by increased NMDA receptor (NMDAR) GluN2B subunit binding with the postsynaptic density protein-95 (PSD-95). In cultured...
N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) excitotoxicity is implicated in the pathogenesis of Huntington's disease (HD), a late-onset neurodegenerative disorder. However, NMDARs are poor therapeutic targets, due to their essential physiological role. Recent studies demonstrate that synaptic NMDAR transmission drives neuroprotective gene transcription, whereas extrasynaptic NMDAR activation promotes cell...
