  • Title: Investigation of cranial and other nerves in the mouse with muscular dystrophy.
    Author: Biscoe TJ, Caddy KW, Pallot DJ, Pehrson UM.
    Journal: J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry; 1975 Apr; 38(4):391-403. PubMed ID: 1141926.
    Abstract:
    In the muscular dystrophic mouse mutant there is an absence of Schwann cells over circumscribed lengths of all cranial nerves except for II (I was not examined) and the lesion involves the sympathetic system. Where present, Schwann cells do not produce myelin of normal thickness. The lesion is similar to that described for the spinal roots. Causation is discussed.
