Comparison of freeze-blowing and funnel-freezing of rat brain for the measurement of cerebral glucose concentration in vivo.

abstract：:The mouse myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) gene has been studied in normal and jimpymsd mice. Potential upstream regulatory regions of the normal gene have been cloned and mapped, but when these regions were studied in jimpymsd mice by Southern blots, no alterations were observed, relative to the normal gene. To asses...
