nervous system
• cultured medium spiny neurons are resistant to NMDAR-mediated excitotoxicity compared to wild-type (2.4% apoptotic cells vs 8.6% in wild-type cultures)
• in vivo, quinolinic acid-induced lesion volume is less than that observed in wild-type mice
• medium spiny neurons exposed to staurosporine show less cell death than wild-type neurons in culture (20% apoptotic cells vs 36.8% in wild-type cultures)

• transgenic mice show no neuronal loss or neuronal excitoxicity compared to wild-type controls, and in contrast to Tg(YAC128)53Hay mice at 12 months of age
• mice perform as well as wild-type mice in rotarod tests up to and including 10 months, and perform better than Tg(YAC128)53Hay mice at 2, 6, and 8 months
• mice perform better than Tg(YAC128)53Hay mice in open field tests at 2, 6, 8, and 10 months and are indistinguishable from wild-type controls, displaying no hypokinesia
• increased compared to Tg(YAC128)53Hay mice at 18 months
• brain weight is indistinguishable from wild-type
• increased volume compared to Tg(YAC128)53Hay mice at 18 months
• striatal volume is indistinguishable from wild-type
• nuclear localization of htt in striatum at 9 months is just detectable, similar to Tg(YAC128)53Hay mice at 2 months of age and this increases with age such that at 12 months,
