## Abstract The marked atrophy of the striatum seen in Huntington's disease (HD) is largely due to a massive neuronal loss that affects the striatal projection neurons more severely than the local circuit neurons. We recently reported the existence of a new class of interneurons characterized by th
## Abstract Phenocopies of Huntington's disease (HD) are individuals with a family history, clinical symptoms, and occasionally pathological evidence of HD but without an expanded CAG repeat within the HD gene. We report on an HD phenocopy with selective loss of preprotachykinin (PPT) neurons, dysf
