Species-specific description: Yang et al. (2010) "generated transgenic Huntington's disease (HD) pigs that express N-terminal (208 amino acids) mutant huntingtin with an expanded polyglutamine tract (105Q). "Baxa et al. (2013) developed "HD transgenic (TgHD) minipigs encoding huntingtin (HTT)1-548 under the control of human HTT promoter". These animals are genetically-modified organisms (GMO).
Yan et al. (2023) "show the feasibility of replacing expanded CAG repeats in the mutant HTT allele with a normal CAG repeat in genetically engineered pigs mimicking the selective neurodegeneration seen in patients with HD. A single intracranial or intravenous injection of adeno-associated virus encoding for Cas9, a single-guide RNA targeting the HTT gene, and donor DNA containing the normal CAG repeat led to the depletion of mutant HTT in the animals and to substantial reductions in the dysregulated expression and neurotoxicity of mutant HTT and in neurological symptoms."
History: Matsuyama et al. (2000) reported that the "Sus HD [Huntington Disease] gene closely resembles its human counterpart in terms of sequence and expression pattern. In particular, human-miniature pig similarities in the normal length of the CAG triplet repeat as well as its repeat-number polymorphism may indicate that miniature pig would provide a good animal model for Huntington's disease."
