Hypothesis 1 of 3

Glial Progenitor Cell Support in Huntington's Disease

Mutant HTT expression in NG2+ glial progenitors impairs their differentiation and homeostatic function, contributing to medium spiny neuron vulnerability. Transplanting wild-type progenitors or enhancing endogenous glial support may protect MSNs, though neuronal mHTT appears sufficient for disease.
