The effect of electrolytic lesion and neural implants on glial fibrillary acidic protein expression in the rat spinal cord
This thesis assessed the suitability of unilateral, electrolytic lesions as a model of spinal cord damage and repair in the adult rat. This type of lesion resulted acutely in localized damage in the upper motor neuron at the L2-L3 level of the spinal cord. Minimal acute damage to ascending sensory p...
