Abstract excerpt
Preclinical diagnosis of motor neuron disease (MND) in the wobbler mouse (wr/wr) has been impossible until recently. However, with the development of a new hybrid, the C57BL/6J x New Zealand Black (B6NZB) wr/wr mouse, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) can be used to establish the preclinical diagnosis. We compared the clinical and histological features of MND and the effects of neurotrophic factor cotreatment...
