Abstract excerpt
We have recently reported that systemic androgens regulate adult N-cadherin (N-cad) expression in spinal motoneurons. However, the mechanism through which androgen mediates this effect remains undetermined. Androgen may act directly on motoneurons to regulate N-cad expression, or indirectly, via effects on androgen-sensitive afferent or efferent structures. Here, we describe a genetic mosaic investigation of this...
