"If HD chorea requires treatment, clinicians should prescribe tetrabenazine (up to 100 mg/day), amantadine (300-400 mg/day), or riluzole (200 mg/day) (Level B) for varying degrees of expected benefit."3.78Evidence-based guideline: pharmacologic treatment of chorea in Huntington disease: report of the guideline development subcommittee of the American Academy of Neurology. ( Armstrong, MJ; Miyasaki, JM, 2012)
"Riluzole was well tolerated."2.70Riluzole in Huntington's disease (HD): an open label study with one year follow up. ( Benke, T; Bodner, T; Brandauer, E; Mueller, J; Poewe, W; Seppi, K; Weirich-Schwaiger, H; Wenning, GK, 2001)
"A wide variety of models of Huntington's disease have been developed including yeast, Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster and mouse."2.42Experimental therapeutics in Huntington's disease: are models useful for therapeutic trials? ( Bates, GP; Hockly, E, 2003)
"The neurodegenerative disorders (Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's dementia, Huntington's disease, cerebellar degeneration) are common medical and social problems."2.40[Neurodegeneration: aging and dementia.

"Patient 2 showed persecution paranoia and motor impersistence at the age of 42."1.34Monozygotic twins suffering from Huntington's disease show different cognitive and behavioural symptoms. ( Garamendi, I; Gómez-Esteban, JC; Lezcano, E; Pérez, T; Tijero, B; Velasco, F; Zarranz, JJ, 2007)
"Riluzole is a substance with glutamate antagonistic properties that is used for neuroprotective treatment in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and which is currently tested in clinical trials for treatment of HD."1.31Riluzole prolongs survival time and alters nuclear inclusion formation in a transgenic mouse model of Huntington's disease.
