Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Haploinsufficiency of the progranulin (PGRN) protein is a leading cause of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD). Mouse models have been developed to study PGRN functions. However, PGRN deficiency in the commonly used C57BL/6 mouse strain background leads to very mild phenotypes, and pathways regulating PGRN deficiency phenotypes remain to be elucidated. METHODS: We generated PGRN-deficient mice in...
