Over the years, various animal models of spinal cord injury have been developed to help understand the mechanism and the pathophysiology of injury, and to develop reliable treatment strategies. These animal models, especially for the mouse, have also become the target of stem cell therapy, which ...
Cross-sectional anatomy of the mouse on high-resolution X-ray computed tomography (micro-CT): in vivo imaging on a murine model
However, preparing a spinal window in a mouse is much more challenging than a cranial window because of the more complex gross anatomy and large motion artifacts caused by the heartbeat and breathing. To obtain optical access to the spinal cord, acute surgical preparation is usually adopted, ...
including small size (facilitating housing and maintenance); short reproductive cycle and lifespan; generally mild-tempered and docile; wealth of information regarding their anatomy, genetics, biology, andphysiology; and the possibility for breeding genetically manipulated mice and mice that have spontaneou...
The Mouse Nervous System provides a comprehensive account of the central nervous system of the mouse. The book is aimed at molecular biologists who need a book that introduces them to the anatomy of the mouse brain and spinal cord, but also takes them into the relevant details of development ...
Illustration shows anatomy of central projections of nociceptors and Aβ-LTMRs and the inter-modal and inter-somatotopic crosstalk. Central terminals of nociceptors only innervate one or two spinal cord segments, whereas Aβ-LTMRs have ascending and descending axons projecting through the dorsal column...
We performed immunocytochemical analyses combined with confocal microscopy to study the developmental distribution of GFAP-positive astrocytes in the spinal cord of wobbler mice during the course of the disease, and in primary cultures of adult wobbler spinal cord astrocytes. Many changes in the number...
