Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Brain dysfunction in myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the prototype of toxic RNA disorders, has been mainly attributed to neuronal RNA misprocessing, while little attention has been given to non-neuronal brain cells. Using a transgenic mouse model of DM1 that expresses mutant RNA in various brain cell types, we demonstrate that astrocytes exhibit impaired ramification and polarization i...
