Granule cell count

1. DMD has no effect on granule cell count in mice.

   “numbers of granule cells and GABAA receptor, alpha 1-expressing cells were similar in wild-type and mdx mice at all ages”

1. age increases granule cell count in rats (approximately doubling between 3 and 31 months).

   “The total number of granule cells increases linearly throughout life, approximately doubling between 3 and 31 months.”
