dc.description.abstract [EN] Huntington's disease (HD) is an inherited, dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by an abnormal expansion of CAG triplets in the huntingtin gene (htt). Despite extensive efforts to modify the progression of HD thus far only symptomatic treatment is available. Recent work suggests that treating invertebrate and mice HD models with metformin, a well-known AMPK activator which is used worldwide to treat type 2-diabetes, reduces mutant huntingtin from cells and alleviates many of the phenotypes associated to HD. Herein we report statistical analyses of a sample population of participants in the Enroll-HD database, a world-wide observational study on HD, to assess the effect of metformin intake in HD patients respect to cognitive status using linear models. This cross-sectional study shows for the first time that the use of metformin associates with better cognitive function in HD patients. es_ES
dc.description.sponsorship RVM holds a "Miguel Servet" fellowship (Ref: CP11/00090) funded by the Institute de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII, Madrid, Spain), a grant from the ISCIII (PI14/00949) and Fundacio Telemarato de la TV3 (ref: 559). The funds from the ISCIII are partially supported by the European Regional Development Fund. RVM is also a Marie Curie fellow (CIG322034, EU). The funders had no role in study design, data collection and analysis, decision to publish, or preparation of the manuscript. We thank the Enroll-HD Study team, its collaborators (see haps://www.enroll-hd,org/for-researchers/technical-support/ for Site Principle Investigators and Study Coordinators) and study participants. Enroll-HD is a longitudinal observational study for Huntington's disease families intended to accelerate progress towards therapeutics; it is sponsored by CHDI Foundation, a nonprofit biomedical research organization exclusively dedicated to developing therapeutics for HD. Enroll-HD would not be possible without the vital contribution of the research participants and their families. es_ES
