Archer T, Kostrzewa RM (2016) Neuroteratology and animal modeling of brain disorders. Curr Top Behav Neurosci 29:1-40. doi: 10.1007/7854_2015_434
Summary: This work covers development and use of the neurotoxins that are most commonly used as neuroteratologic agents – producing permanent, lifelong destruction of specific groups of neurons. Saporin conjugates are discussed, in terms of animal models of human neurodegenerative, neuropsychiatric, and neurological conditions. In contrast to 192 IgG-SAP treatment of adult rats,which also destroys cerebellar Purkinje cells, perinatal 192 IgG-saporin spares Purkinje cells which have a lower expression of p75NGF
