What cells are damaged in huntington's disease and where in the brain are they located?
In Huntington's disease, the primary cells that are damaged are neurons, particularly in the basal ganglia, with a significant focus on the striatum, which includes the caudate nucleus and putamen. These areas of the brain are crucial for movement control and coordination. The degeneration of these neurons leads to the characteristic motor, cognitive, and psychiatric symptoms associated with the disease. Additionally, there is also some involvement of other brain regions, including the cerebral cortex.
What is huntingtons disorder?
Huntington's disease is a genetic disorder that causes the progressive breakdown of nerve cells in the brain. It leads to various physical and mental symptoms, including involuntary movements, cognitive impairment, and psychiatric issues. There is currently no cure for Huntington's disease.
Do cells cause diseases?
Cells can cause disease, but can also prevent disease.
What are some type of disease that have to do with blood cells?
important disease with blood cells
Is there are cure for huntingtons disease?
No, there is currently no cure for Huntingtons, but a neurologist is able to prescribe medication to patients with Huntingtons to help the suppress the symptoms. Researchers are currently looking into stem cell research for a cure.
What are prokaryotic cells that cause disease and decay?
Bacteria are prokaryotic cells that cause disease and decay.
How are the cells affected by this disease?
Your question is incomplete. What disease
What cells that fight disease?
White blood cells
What causes a vaccine to prevent a certain disease?
a vaccination is a dead or deactivated virus. the body treats the vaccine as a threat to the body, so it fights the disease. it leaves you with memory T (killer cells) and B (cells that create antibodies). when the actual disease comes, the memory B cells make antibodies that stick to the disease cells antigens, and the memory T cells kill the disease, to end the disease before it can start.
Is there a disease where your cells are prokaryotic?
no
What is an infectious disease caused by a virus that attacks disease fighting cells in the blood?
HIV infection or AIDS is the disease, which you have infection by HIV virus, that attacks disease fighting cells in the blood.
What is the infectious disease caused by a virus that attacks the disease fighting cells?
AIDS is caused by the HIV virus, which attacks disease-fighting cells.
