The influence of neuronal plasticity on the olfaction in the transgenic rat model for Huntington disease investigated with in vivo MRI. University of Antwerp
In vivo MRI will be used to study the role of neurogenesis in the loss of olfaction in a transgenic rat model of Huntington's disease. Therefore we will use 1) in situ labeling of neuronal stem cells and 2) manganese enhanced MRI, two revolutionary in vivo MRI methods.
