Our recent study highlights the #GAITOR technique for #locomotion deficits caused due to #syrinx in the spinal cord. @ProfNicLeipzig @MahFarrag

We demonstrated the osmoregulatory role of betaine and its transporter BGT1 SM using in vitro and in vivo approaches. This effort aligns with our ultimate objective to develop non-surgical treatments for SM to overcome the challenges associated with surgical interventions.

[Dipak Pukale @DipakPukale]

Our recent work on the potential role of the osmoregulation mechanism in #syringomyelia was published in ACS Chemical Neuroscience.
I would like to thank my adviser @ProfNicLeipzig, colleagues, and all collaborators for their support throughout the study.

Day 23: #Syringomyelia Awareness Month!
Post-traumatic SM (PTSM) animal injury model with an injection of kaolin in subarachnoid space (to obstruct CSF flow) and quisqualic acid in the spinal cord (to destroy neurons) are used to mimic the SM pathology in rodents in lab research.

SM can cause pain no matter the size of the syrinx

SM in Dog: The most common dog breed affected by SM is the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, but other small dogs can also be affected. Weimaraners are also more prone to a type of SM. Read more: https://t.co/FhtBm3cR6Z
