Abstract
Adrenomyeloneuropathy (AMN) and cerebral childhood adrenoleukodystrophy (CCALD) are the main phenotypic variants of an X-linked inherited metabolic disorder causing demyelination, X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD). It is caused by mutations in the ABCD1 (ALD) gene encoding a peroxisomal ABC transporter. Inactivation of the murine ALD gene does not lead to a detectable clinical phenotype in mice up to 6 months, and no cerebral pathology resembling the childhood form (CCALD) was observed. In this work, we show that older ALD-deficient mice exhibit an abnormal neurological and behavioral phenotype, starting at around 15 months. This is correlated with slower nerve conduction, and with myelin and axonal anomalies detectable in the spinal cord and sciatic nerve, but not in brain. The phenotype of ALD-deficient mice mimics features of human AMN, thus providing a model for investigating the pathogenesis of this disease.

The Four Plates Test is an exclusivity from BIOSEB!
The Aron test allows a quick characterization of putative anxiolytics compounds in naïve animals. A must for studying anxiety, drug screening and phenotyping.

                    [description_short] => 
Rotarod provides an easy way to test the motor activity in rodents (mouse or rat) - an ideal solution for studying central nervous system damage, disease effects on motor activity, drugs administration, fatigue resistance, etc. Now even easier to use! The new touchscreen graphic user interface allows clear visualization of timing and speed for each lane. Change modes, adjust speed, and create protocols right from the main screen for greater flexibility with maximum functionality and usability
