Abstract

Using computer-assisted morphometrycal analysis we show degeneration and regeneration processes in mdx-mouse extraocular muscles. We¢ve also selected statistical criteria for assessment of degeneration rate. Тhus we suggest to use mdx-mouse extraocular muscles as experimental bioilogical model of myodegenerative processes in human extraocular muscles in search, development and effectiveness assessment of different ways of treatment, among them cell-based and gene therapy.
