Huntington\u2019s disease (HD)<\/strong>\u00a0is a\u00a0hereditary neurodegenerative disorder<\/strong>\u00a0caused by a\u00a0mutation in the HTT gene<\/strong>, leading to the production of a\u00a0toxic huntingtin protein<\/strong>\u00a0that progressively damages nerve cells in the brain. HD is characterized by\u00a0uncontrolled movements (chorea), cognitive decline, and psychiatric symptoms.<\/strong>

Germany is at the\u00a0forefront of HD research and treatment<\/strong>, offering\u00a0advanced diagnostics, disease-modifying drugs, gene therapy, stem cell therapy, and specialized neurorehabilitation programs<\/strong>\u00a0to slow disease progression and improve quality of life.
