[Abstract] Stereotaxic injection is an attractive approach for studying genetic, cellular and circuit functions in the brain. Injection of anatomical tracers, site-targeted lesions and gene delivery by recombinant adeno-associated viruses and lentiviruses in mice are powerful tools to study nervous system development and disease mechanisms. Stereotaxic ...

[Abstract] Stereotaxic infusion of LPS or your reagent of choice is an invaluable tool for the creation of chronic site-targeted lesions. Stereotaxic infusion of LPS has been used to establish chronic animal model of Parkinson’s disease, the most common neurodegenerative movement disorder. This protocol is especially useful to established chronic disease ...
