Central serotonergic neuron deficiency in a mouse model of Zellweger syndrome.

Abstract excerpt

Zellweger syndrome (ZS) is a severe peroxisomal disorder caused by mutations in peroxisome biogenesis, or PEX, genes. A central hallmark of ZS is abnormal neuronal migration and neurodegeneration, which manifests as widespread neurological dysfunction. The molecular basis of ZS neuropathology is not well understood. Here we present findings using a mouse model of ZS neuropathology with conditional brain...
