Lumbosacral plexus in Hoxa9 knockout mice with special reference to their nerve variations identified according to whether they were interphenotypic or intergenotypic differences.

Abstract excerpt

The lumbosacral plexus in specific Hox gene mutant mice originating from C57bl/60, i.e., Hoxa9 +/+, +/- and -/- genotypes (10 specimens of each), were dissected minutely and detailed examinations were made of the eight nerves in the plexus and the lowest intercostal nerve. We identified three types of nerve variation in mice with Hox mutations: interphenotypic variations, intergenotypic variations and common...
