English summary Non-motor symptoms and signs such as metabolic and psychiatric disturbances have been reported to occur early in Huntington's disease (HD), a fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expanded CAG repeat in the huntingtin gene.However, there is a lack of understanding of the underlying neurobiological mechanisms responsible for the early non-motor features.The hypothalamus has

English summary Huntington’s disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by an expansion of the CAG repeat in the huntingtin gene. Non-motor symptoms and signs such as psychiatric disturbances and metabolic dysfunction are also part of the disease manifestation. These symptoms often precede the motor symptoms by decades. The hypothalamus is an area in the brain involved in the regulation o

English summary Huntington’s disease (HD) is caused by a CAG trinucleotide repeat expansion in the huntingtin (HTT) gene. HD is an inherited progressive neurodegenerative disorder manifested by the wide array of motor dysfunctions, as well as non-motor symptoms. The latter include metabolic dysfunction and psychiatric deficits, such as depression and anxiety, are often observed in patients and ani
