Any preventive or disease-modifying therapies are not available so far. Symptomatic treatment can only affect symptoms and it is not satisfying. Several approaches using RNAi to lower the expression of mutant huntingtin (mHTT) have been developed to date. In order to monitor the success of therapy efficacy in the pre-manifest stages of HD it is important to identify robust biomarkers of the onset and disease progression. The primary pathology of HD results inter alia from massive degeneration of neurons in the basal ganglia and thalamus. However, the expression of mutant huntingtin was detected in all examined tissues. Studies on HD demonstrated altered immune response in HD gene carriers indicating that cytokines may have a significant role in disease development. Therefore, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood serum may provide insight into pathology of HD, new prospective biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets. Additionally, microglia and monocytes could also serve as possible cellular source of candidate biomarkers to monitor HD progression.
