Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: The first part of the experiment identifies and validates MRI biomarkers distinctive of the disease progression in the transgenic superoxide dismutase gene (SOD1(G93A)) animal model. The second part assesses the efficacy of a mesenchymal stem cell-based therapy through the MRI biomarkers previously defined. METHODS: The first part identifies MRI differences between SOD1(G93A) and healthy mice. The second...
