A Review and Rationale for the Use of Genetically Engineered Animals in the Study of Traumatic Brain Injury
1 Nov 2001
Abstract excerpt
The mechanisms underlying secondary cell death after traumatic brain injury (TBI) are poorly understood. Animal models of TBI recapitulate many clinical and pathologic aspects of human head injury, and the development of genetically engineered animals has offered the opportunity to investigate the specific molecular and cellular mechanisms associated with cell dysfunction and death after TBI, allowing for the...
