Abstract excerpt
Batten disease (BD)--also known as juvenile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses-is an inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by CLN3 gene mutations. Although CLN3-related oxidative and mitochondrial stresses have been studied in BD, the pathologic mechanism of the disease is not clearly understood. To address the molecular factors linked to high levels of oxidative stress in BD, we examined the expression of...
