Several segments of spinal cord were removed from the cervical regions of stage-13 or -14 day-2) chick embryos. After further incubation to day 17 or 18, the patterns of end-plate distribution and ATPase typing of muscle fibres in the anterior and posterior latissimus dorsi and the ulnimetacarpalis dorsalis, and the ATPase typing of the forearm muscles were examined. No differences from control embryos were found. The embryos had normal numbers of lateral motor column motoneurons in both the brachial and lumbar enlargements and the positions of motoneurons supplying the biceps as identified with retrograde horseradish peroxidase labelling were consistent with the normal patterns of motor projection into the limb. These results show that the fibre typing of limb muscles and their patterns of innervation are independent of descending inputs until just before hatching in the chick.

The Wobbler mouse (wr) has been studied as a model for inherited human motoneuron diseases (MNDs). Using behavioral tests for forelimb power, walking, climbing, and the “clasp-like reflex” response, the progress of the MND can be categorized into early (Stage 1, age 21 days) and late (Stage 4, age 3 months) stages. Age-and sex-matched normal phenotype littermates (NFR/wr) were used as controls (Stage 0), as well as mice from two related wild-type mouse strains: NFR/N and a C57BI/6N. Using behavioral tests, we also detected pre-symptomatic Wobblers at postnatal ages 7 and 14 days. The mice were anesthetized and perfusion-fixed for immunocytochemical (ICC) of CGRP and ChAT in the spinal cord (C3 to C5).Using computerized morphomety (Vidas, Zeiss), the numbers of IR-CGRP labelled motoneurons were significantly lower in 14 day old Wobbler specimens compared with the controls (Fig. 1). The same trend was observed at 21 days (Stage 1) and 3 months (Stage 4). The IR-CGRP-containing motoneurons in the Wobbler specimens declined progressively with age.
