Sensory defects in Necdin deficient mice result from a loss of sensory neurons correlated within an increase of developmental programmed cell death.

The human NECDIN gene is involved in a neurodevelopmental disorder, Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS). Previously we reported a mouse Necdin knock-out model with similar defects to PWS patients. Despite the putative roles attributed to Necdin, mainly from in vitro studies, its in vivo function remains unclear. In this study, we investigate sensory-motor behaviour in Necdin deficient mice. We reveal cellular defects and analyse their cause.

Understanding Human Disease Through Mouse Genetics (tool)

RRID:SCR_000785

A portal documenting a project for the development of novel approaches in phenotyping, mutagenesis and informatics to improve the characterization of mouse models for understanding human molecular physiology and pathology. EUMORPHIA has developed a new robust primary screening platform for determining the phenotype of mice: EMPReSS - European Mouse Phenotyping Resource for Standardised Screens. The project is also focused on training new young scientists by funding them to work in a variety of laboratories to gain a broader swathe of techniques. The project has also identified the need for more trained mouse pathologists. To address this, they are setting up training courses in pathology and working at a European level to establish more training.
