nervous system
• most ventral horn motor neurons lack autofluorescent lipofuscin in cell bodies at 3 or 5 months of age
• however, lipofuscin is detected in the neuron cell bodies of the dorsal regions of the spinal cord gray matter
• marker analysis indicates that presymptomatic mice exhibit fewer autophagosomes in motor neurons
|
• most ventral horn motor neurons lack autofluorescent lipofuscin in cell bodies at 3 or 5 months of age
|
• mice develop motor neuron disease, with onset from 4 to 12 months of age

behavior/neurological
cellular
• marker analysis indicates that presymptomatic mice exhibit fewer autophagosomes in motor neurons and further analysis indicates that the autophagy/lysosome pathway is hyperactive
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• marker analysis indicates that presymptomatic mice exhibit fewer autophagosomes in motor neurons and further analysis indicates that the autophagy/lysosome pathway is hyperactive
