scope
Astrocyte-specific N-terminal mutant huntingtin transgenic mice
claim_text

Using primers that specifically amplify transgenic human htt transcript, we found that the transcription level of htt-160Q is lower than in htt-23Q and N171-82Q mouse brains, as well as lower than in HD KI mouse brains, which express mutant htt at the endogenous level (Fig. 1D).
