Amniotic fluid brain-specific proteins are biomarkers for spinal cord injury in experimental myelomeningocele [PDF]

, 2005
Myelomeningocele (MMC), the most severe form of spina bifida (SB), causes neurological deficit. Injury to the spinal cord is thought to begin in utero. We investigated whether brain-specific proteins (BSPs) would enable us to monitor the development of ...
