28 Oct 2020
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Background The neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (CLN diseases) are fatal lysosomal storage diseases causing neurodegeneration in the CNS. We have previously shown that neuroinflammation comprising innate and adaptive immune reactions drives axonal damage and neuron loss in the CNS of palmitoyl protein thioesterase 1-deficient (Ppt1−/−) mice, a model of the infantile form of the diseases (CLN1). Therefore,...
