  • SHMT2 deficiency is linked to Huntington's disease (HD) pathogenesis.
  • SHMT2 downregulation exacerbates mHTT aggregation and MSN degeneration.
  • Homocysteine accumulation from SHMT2 deficiency suppresses histone lactylation.
  • SHMT2 overexpression improves motor function and reduces neurodegeneration in HD models.
  • Haloperidol modulates SHMT2 expression and restores histone lactylation.
