Postnatal video recordings: spinal Tor1a d-cko mice develop early onset generalised torsional dystonia
Supplemental movies of the dystonic-like phenotype in spinal Tor1a d-cko mice associated with Pocratsky et al 2023, Science Translational Medicine
Videos were generated throughout postnatal development from litterate controls (Cdx2::wt;Tor1a-wt/frt) and spinal Tor1a d-cko mice (Cdx2::FlpO;Tor1a-frt/frt) that develop early onset generalised torsional dystonia.
