摘要
The SOD1-G93A transgenic mouse is a widely used ALS model, but the death of lower motor neurons is the hallmark. Here, we show that the SOD1-G93A transgene and HO-1 are preferentially over-expressed in the lumbar spinal cord, particularly in the activated astrocytes of the transgenic mice. We also show down-regulation of GLT-1 in spite of the proliferating astrocytes. However, GLT-1, SOD1-G93A transgene and HO-1 expression were not obviously changed in the motor cortex. Our data link spinal cord vulnerability to relatively decreased expression of GLT-1, and high expression of the transgene and HO-1 in astrocytes in SOD1-G93A transgenic mice.
