Abstract excerpt
Dystonia musculorum (dt) is a mutant mouse with hereditary sensory neuropathy. A defective bullous pemphigoid antigen 1 (BPAG1) gene is responsible for this mutation. In the present study, we examined the distribution of neuronal intermediate filament proteins in the central and peripheral processes of the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) in adult dt mice using different approaches. We found that not only BPAG1, but...
