Design of a novel quantitative PCR (QPCR)-based protocol for genotyping mice carrying the neuroprotective Wallerian degeneration slow (<it>Wld</it><sup><it>s</it></sup>) gene
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Mice carrying the spontaneous genetic mutation known as Wallerian degeneration slow (<it>Wld</it><sup><it>s</it></sup>) have a unique neuroprotective phenotype, where axonal and synaptic compartmen...
