| 英文描述 | A spontaneous motor neuron disease, resembling sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in man, occurs in horses. Young and old horses of various breeds developed signs of generalized weakness, muscle fasciculations, muscle atrophy, and weight loss that progressed over 1 to several months. There was usually elevation of serum CK and/or AST levels. At necropsy, many spinal neurons were swollen, chromatolytic, and contained neurofilamentous accumulations. |
