i want to develop a cell line model to study HD .. i planned to maintain a PC12 and HEK293 cell line for induction, but it seems not a correct model.. please help.. Any comments/suggestions will be appreciated..
Striatal neurons are of several types - morphologically there are at least 5 types, from aspiny and spiny neurons which have single of more dendrites. Chemically too there are several, GABA-ergic, cholinergic, glutamatergic, and so on. It receives a great deal of dopaminergic inputs too, which probably control Huntingtonian chorea. Which type of neurons do you wish to work on?
