Delayed Clinical and Pathological Signs in Twitcher (Globoid Cell Leukodystrophy) Mice on a C57BL/6 × CAST/Ei Background

Modifier genes may account for the phenotypic variability observed in the late-onset forms of globoid cell leukodystrophy (GCL) in humans. In order to begin a search for modifier genes, the effect of genetic background on the clinical and pathological manifestations of GCL was investigated in twitch...
