Effects of the neurotrophic factors CNTF and IGF-1 in mouse models for spinal muscular atrophy and diabetic neuropathy
In this study I investigate the role of Schwann cell and axon-derived trophic signals as modifiers of axonal integrity and sprouting in motoneuron disease and diabetic neuropathy (DNP). The first part of this thesis focuses on the role of the Schwann-cell-derived ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) f...
