Preclinical Testing of Neuroprotective Neurotrophic Factors in a Model of Chronic Motor Neuron Degeneration

Many neurotrophic factors have been shown to enhance survival of embryonic motor neurons or affect their response to injury. Few studies have investigated the potential effects of neurotrophic factors on more mature motor neurons that might be relevant for neurodegenerative diseases. Using organotyp...
