Method for diagnosing huntingtons disease and means of treating it |
abstract |
The invention is based on the identification of abnormal behaviour of the adenosine A 2A receptor, both as regards the bond to specific ligands and its coupling to the adenylate cyclase system characteristic of cells genetically predisposed to develop Huntington's Disease and of circulating cells in patients affected by this disease. The present invention uses this abnormal behaviour as a diagnostic marker for early detection of the onset and/or progression of this disease, and as a pharmacological target to inhibit to delay progression of the pathology. The invention consists in an in-vitro method for diagnosing Huntington's disease based on assessment of the increase in the number of A 2A receptors for adenosine and/or of the abnormal activity of adenylate cyclase, and in the use of drugs that inhibit this activity, for the prevention and/or treatment of this disease. |
