Sonic hedgehog and TDP-43 participate in the spontaneous locomotor recovery in a mouse model of spinal motoneuron disease

Gulino R, Parenti R, Gulisano M (2017) Sonic hedgehog and TDP-43 participate in the spontaneous locomotor recovery in a mouse model of spinal motoneuron disease. J Funct Morphol Kinesiol 2:11.. doi: 10.3390/jfmk2020011

Summary: The authors used a mouse model of neurotoxic motoneuron depletion to study the role of Sonic hedgehog and TDP-43 in the compensatory changes occurring after the lesion. The injection of cholera toxin-B saporin (CTB-SAP; Cat. #IT-14) into the gastrocnemius muscle caused a partial motoneuron death accompanied by an impairment of locomotion.  Motor activity was significantly restored as soon as one month later.
