Abstract excerpt
In a previous study, we reported increased NOS expression in the astrocytes in the spinal cord of SOD mutant transgenic mice that are used as ALS animal model. Recently, Messmer and Brune suggested that nitric oxide-induced apoptosis is intimately related with p53-dependent signaling pathway, and de la Monte et al. reported increased p53-immunoreactivity in the spinal cord of ALS patients. In the present study,...
