AI Article Synopsis

  • Studying gait is crucial for understanding movement disorders in both humans and mouse models.
  • This article focuses on gait data from two α-synucleinopathic transgenic mouse models and their non-transgenic counterparts, all in the C57BL/6N genetic background.
  • Gait analysis was conducted using the CatWalk system, which recorded detailed information such as paw positions, sizes, and intensities, resulting in a total of 90 data files.

Article Abstract

Characterizing gait is important in the study of movement disorders, also in clinical mouse models. Gait data are therefore necessary for the development of gait analysis methods and the study of diseases. This article presents gait data of two α-synucleinopathic transgenic mouse models and their non-transgenic littermate, backcrossed into the C57BL/6N genetic background. The animal gait was recorded using CatWalk system, which provides the information for each run about the paw positions, paw print sizes, and paw intensities as a function of time or video frame. A total of 90 run data files are provided in this article.

[Effect of electroacupuncture on denervated skeletal muscle atrophy in rats based on p38 MAPK signaling pathway].

Zhongguo Zhen Jiu

College of TCM, Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing Key Laboratory of TCM for Prevention and Treatment of Metabolic Diseases, Chongqing 410007, China.

Objective: To assess the impacts of electroacupuncture (EA) on the gait, oxidative stress, inflammatory reaction, and protein degradation in the rats of denervated skeletal muscle atrophy, and explore the potential mechanism of EA for alleviating denervated skeletal muscle atrophy.

Methods: Forty male SD rats, 8 weeks old, were randomly assigned to a sham-surgery group, a model group, an EA group, and a p38 MAPK inhibitor group, with 10 rats in each group. The right sciatic nerve was transected to establish a rat model of denervated skeletal muscle atrophy in the model group, the EA group and the p38 MAPK inhibitor group.

Progressive myoclonus epilepsy type 1 (EPM1) is an autosomal recessively inherited childhood-adolescence onset neurodegenerative disease caused by mutations in the cystatin B ( gene). The key clinical manifestation in EPM1 is progressive, stimulus-sensitive, in particular action-induced myoclonus. The cystatin B-deficient mouse model, , has been described to present with myoclonic seizures and progressive ataxia.

Brachial plexus avulsion (BPA) is a combined injury involving the central and peripheral nervous systems. Patients with BPA often experience severe neuropathic pain (NP) in the affected limb. NP is insensitive to the existing treatments, which makes it a challenge to researchers and clinicians.

Transient receptor potential families play important roles in the pathology of osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. While transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) is also an essential component of the pathogenesis of various arthritic conditions, its association with pain is controversial. Thus, we researched whether TRPA1 is involved in knee OA pain by patch-clamp recordings and evaluated the behavioral responses using CatWalk gait analysis and pressure application measurement (PAM).
