Characterization of the HeCo Mutant Mouse: A New Model of Subcortical Band Heterotopia Associated with Seizures and Behavioral Deficits
18 Jun 2008
Abstract excerpt
In human, neuronal migration disorders are commonly associated with developmental delay, mental retardation, and epilepsy. We describe here a new mouse mutant that develops a heterotopic cortex (HeCo) lying in the dorsolateral hemispheric region, between the homotopic cortex (HoCo) and subcortical white matter. Cross-breeding demonstrated an autosomal recessive transmission. Birthdating studies and...
