Erythrocytes of healthy volunteers and of patients with hereditary chorea were studied. Evaluation of the state of cellular membrane was carried out by measuring osmotic resistance, activity of Na+, K(+)-ATPase and protein composition. In the patients osmotic resistance of erythrocytes was distinctly decreased down to 66.3 +/- 3.3, while the Na+, K(+)-ATPase activity was increased 4-fold as compared with controls. Protein composition of erythrocyte membranes, studied by means of two-dimensional electrophoresis, was similar both in healthy persons and in patients with hereditary chorea when the electrophoretograms were analyzed visually. An additional protein with Mr = 30,000 and r-1-0.25 was detected in one of the patients. Slowly sedimenting fraction of erythrocytes was found in almost all the patients with hereditary chorea when erythrocytes aging was studied by means of fractionation in Ficoll density gradient. The fraction was not observed in healthy persons. These data suggest that the cell membranes in Huntington's chorea are altered as compared with normal state.

D006816 Huntington Disease A familial disorder inherited as an autosomal dominant trait and characterized by the onset of progressive CHOREA and DEMENTIA in the fourth or fifth decade of life. Common initial manifestations include paranoia; poor impulse control; DEPRESSION; HALLUCINATIONS; and DELUSIONS. Eventually intellectual impairment; loss of fine motor control; ATHETOSIS; and diffuse chorea involving axial and limb musculature develops, leading to a vegetative state within 10-15 years of disease onset. The juvenile variant has a more fulminant course including SEIZURES; ATAXIA; dementia; and chorea.

D000254 Sodium-Potassium-Exchanging ATPase An enzyme that catalyzes the active transport system of sodium and potassium ions across the cell wall. Sodium and potassium ions are closely coupled with membrane ATPase which undergoes phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, thereby providing energy for transport of these ions against concentration gradients.
