Altered expression of inflammatory transcripts in postmortem HD striatal tissue. Levels of IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α RNA were significantly higher in the striatum of HD patients than in control striatum. Graphs show means with standard error bars. n = 6 controls and 17 HD patients (see Table S3). Unpaired t tests: *, P < 0.05; ***, P < 0.001; ****, P < 0.0001.
