Mouse Model Opens the Door to New Research on Epilepsy, Alzheimer's

Scientists at University of Utah have developed a genetically engineered line of mice that is expected to open the door to new research on epilepsy, Alzheimer's and other diseases. The mice carry a protein marker, which changes in degree of fluorescence in response to different calcium levels. This will allow many cell types, including cells called astrocytes and microglia, to be studied in a new way. "This is opening up the possibility to decipher ...
