AbstractHuntington's disease is caused by an abnormal CAG expansion within the gene encoding Huntingtin which induces a major cortico-striatal degeneration as well as motor and cognitive impairments. Since the discovery of the present mutation, a number of experimental data have been collected to uncover the physiopathological consequences of mutated Huntingtin expression. Here, we review the therapeutic challenges of Huntington's disease.
