formic acid and Akinetic-Rigid Variant of Huntington Disease

formic acid has been researched along with Akinetic-Rigid Variant of Huntington Disease in 3 studies

formic acid: RN given refers to parent cpd
formic acid : The simplest carboxylic acid, containing a single carbon. Occurs naturally in various sources including the venom of bee and ant stings, and is a useful organic synthetic reagent. Principally used as a preservative and antibacterial agent in livestock feed. Induces severe metabolic acidosis and ocular injury in human subjects.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Fragmentation of expanded huntingtin in Huntington's disease must result from the operation of multiple proteolytic activities with little specificity and not from that of a specific endopeptidase; subsequent aggregation of the fragments by covalent and non-covalent bonds leads to the formation of the inclusions."1.33Purification of neuronal inclusions of patients with Huntington's disease reveals a broad range of N-terminal fragments of expanded huntingtin and insoluble polymers. ( Djian, P; Hoffner, G; Island, ML, 2005)
" Here we have report that, although expression of Huntingtin derivatives with a pathological poly(Q) expansion are innocuous in yeast, deletion of the flanking proline-rich region alters the shape and number of poly(Q) inclusions and unmasks toxic properties."1.33Critical role of the proline-rich region in Huntingtin for aggregation and cytotoxicity in yeast. ( Bertolotti, A; Dehay, B, 2006)
