ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Crossbreeding of the hSOD1G93A transgenic mouse model of ALS with chat-GluR2 mice led to marked delay of disease onset and mortality (
  • expression of the GRIA2 subunit was significantly reduced in the ventral hippocampus and the postrhinal cortex of aged rat (
  • GluR2 heterozygous knock-in mouse display severe and progressive neurological deficits including seizures and, ultimately, increased mortality (
