Oxidative damage and metabolic dysfunction in Huntington's disease: Selective vulnerability of the basal ganglia
Abstract
The etiology of the selective neuronal death that occurs in Huntington's disease (HD) is unknown. Several lines of evidence implicate the involvement of energetic defects and oxidative damage in the disease process, including a recent study that demonstrated an interaction between huntingtin protein and the glycolytic enzyme glyceraldehyde‐3‐phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). Using spectrophotometric assays in postmortem brain tissue, we found evidence of impaired oxidative phosphorylation enzyme activities restricted to the basal ganglia in HD brain, while enzyme activities were unaltered in three regions relatively spared by HD pathology (frontal cortex, parietal cortex, and cerebellum). Citrate synthase‐corrected complex II‐III activity was markedly reduced in both HD caudate (−29%) and putamen (−67%), and complex IV activity was reduced in HD putamen (−62%). Complex I and GAPDH activities were unaltered in all regions examined. We also measured levels of the oxidative damage product 8‐hydroxydeoxyguanosine (OH 8 dG) in nuclear DNA, and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity. OH 8 dG levels were significantly increased in HD caudate. Cytosolic SOD activity was slightly reduced in HD parietal cortex and cerebellum, whereas particulate SOD activity was unaltered in these regions. These results further support a role for metabolic dysfunction and oxidative damage in the pathogenesis of HD.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
