What is Axonal Caspase Activation in Twitcher Mouse about?

The study investigates peripheral neuropathy in the Twitcher mouse model of Krabbe disease, highlighting the activation of axonal caspase 3 as a key factor in neurodegeneration. It reveals that psychosine accumulation leads to axonal dysfunction and demyelination, with active caspase 3 present in both myelinated and unmyelinated axons. The findings suggest that axonal degeneration occurs prior to demyelination, contributing to the neurological impairments observed in Krabbe disease.
