The mouse cerebellar cortex in organotypic slice cultures: an in vitro model to analyze the consequences of mutations and pathologies on neuronal survival, development, and function.

Abstract excerpt

Thin acute slices and dissociated cell cultures taken from different parts of the brain have been widely used to examine the function of the nervous system, neuron-specific interactions, and neuronal development (specifically, neurobiology, neuropharmacology, and neurotoxicology studies). Here, we focus on an alternative in vitro model: brain-slice cultures in roller tubes, initially introduced by Beat Gähwiler...
