Rex1/Zfp42 as an epigenetic regulator for genomic imprinting.

abstract：:Despite extensive progress in Huntington's disease (HD) research, very little is known about the association of epigenetic variation and HD pathogenesis in human brain tissues. Moreover, its contribution to the tissue-specific transcriptional regulation of the huntingtin gene (HTT), in which HTT expression levels are ...
