Progesterone Neuroprotection in the Wobbler Mouse, a Genetic Model of Spinal Cord Motor Neuron Disease
Motor neuron degeneration characterizes the spinal cord of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and the Wobbler mouse mutant. Considering that progesterone (PROG) provides neuroprotection in experimental ischemia and injury, its potential role in neurodegeneration was studied in the murine mo...
