Considerable knowledge concerning developmental cell death has come from the study of somatic motor neurons (SMNs), but a related set of spinal neurons, the autonomic motor neurons (AMNs), have been studied less extensively in this respect. In the present study, we used three different approaches to

It was the aim of this histopathologic study to examine and compare results of bladder tissue biopsies in spinal cord injured (SCI) patients. The study group consisted of 61 SCI patients who received treatment at the Swiss Paraplegic Centre in Nottwil, near Lucerne, Switzerland. The mean age of the

The recognition that both human and murine retroviruses can cause motor neurone diseaselike syndromes has raised the possibility that a retrovirus may be involved in the aetiology of motor neurone disease. This possibility was explored by looking for evidence of reverse transcriptase in the serum of

The frequency of a recently described point mutation of the ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) gene was investigated in a population of 154 German patients with motor neuron disease (MND). Twenty-two percent of the patients were heterozygous, 2% homozygous for the CNTF mutation. Since the gene defec
