Methods and compositions for monitoring progression of huntington's disease

Abstract

The invention relates to a method of diagnosis of Huntington's Disease in a diagnostic sample of a valid body tissue taken from a human subject, which comprises detecting an altered concentration of a protein in the diagnostic sample, compared with a sample of a control human subject, the protein being selected from: Swiss Prot accession number: Protein name; P10909: Clusterin precursor; P00738: Haptoglobin precursor; P01009: Alpha-1-antitrypsin precursor; P01024: Complement C3 precursor; P01620: 1g kappa chain V-III region; P01834: 1 g kappa chain C region P01842: 1g lambda chain C regions; P01857: 1g gamma-1 chain C region; P01859: Ig gamma-2 chain C region; P01876: 1g alpha-1 chain C region P02647: Apolipoprotein A-I precursor; P02649: Apolipoprotein E precursor; P02652: Apolipoprotein A-II precursor; P02655: Apolipoprotein C-II precursor; P02656: Apolipoprotein C-II precursor P02671: Fibrinogen alpha/alpha-E chain precursor; P02763: Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein 1 precursor; P02766: Transthyretin precursor; P02768: Serum albumin precursor; P02787: Serotransferrin precursor; P04196: Histidine-rich glycoprotein precursor; P06727: Apolipoprotein A-IV precursor; P19652: Alpha-1-acid glycoprotein 2 precursor; P68871/P02042: Hemoglobin beta chain/Hemoglobin delta chain; P60709: Beta actin.
