Transcriptional profiling of brain tissues from a Q130 Long Evans Knock-in rat model of Huntington’s disease at 2-, 6- and 12-months of age


ABSTRACT: Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder that is characterized by motor, cognitive, and psychiatric alterations. The mutation responsible for this disease is an abnormally expanded and unstable CAG repeat within the coding region of the gene encoding huntingtin (Htt). A collaboration between the CHDI Foundation and Dr. H.P. Nguyen (huu.nguyen-r7w@ruhr-uni-bochum.de) at Universitat Bochum focused on generating a knock-in rat model of HD that contains expanded CAG repeats inserted within the rat huntingtin gene (Hdh) in order to provide a genetic reconstruction of the human causative mutation within the rat model. The goal of this study is RNA expression profiling by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) in brain tissues of 2-, 6- and 12-month-old heterozygous knock-in rats with uninterrupted CAG length approaching 130 along with littermate control wild-type animals.
