A Hypomorphic Vasopressin Allele Prevents Anxiety-Related Behavior
BACKGROUND To investigate neurobiological correlates of trait anxiety, CD1 mice were selectively bred for extremes in anxiety-related behavior, with high (HAB) and low (LAB) anxiety-related behavior mice additionally differing in behavioral tests reflecting depression-like behavior. METHODOLOGY/ PRINCIPAL FINDINGS In this study, microarray analysis, in situ hybridization, quantitative real-ti...
متن کاملHypomorphic Mesp allele
Somitogenesis is a dynamic morphogenetic process required for the generation of a metameric architecture in vertebrates. The paraxial mesoderm derived from the primitive streak or tailbud is aligned on both sides of the neural tube as the presomitic mesoderm (PSM). For formation of the metameric structure, mesenchymal PSM cells have to undergo two types of segmentation. One is initial segmentat...
متن کاملV1 vasopressin receptor antisense oligodeoxynucleotide into septum reduces vasopressin binding, social discrimination abilities, and anxiety-related behavior in rats.
To develop and validate a vasopressin (AVP) receptor knockdown strategy, we infused an antisense oligodeoxynucleotide to the V1 subtype mRNA into the septum of male rats with osmotic minipumps and measured behavioral, cellular and molecular parameters. Compared to vehicle and scrambled-sequence oligo controls, chronic antisense administration for up to 4 d diminished the ability of the animals ...
متن کاملThe mouse rib-vertebrae mutation is a hypomorphic Tbx6 allele
Rib-vertebrae (rv) is an autosomal recessive mutation in mouse that affects somite formation, morphology, and patterning. Expression of Notch pathway components is affected in the paraxial mesoderm of rv mutant embryos, and rv and a null allele of the Notch ligand delta1 show non-allelic non-complementation. By fine genetic mapping and complementation testing we have identified Tbx6, a gene ess...
متن کاملA role for LYNX2 in anxiety-related behavior.
Anxiety disorders are the most prevalent mental disorders in developed societies. Although roles for the prefrontal cortex, amygdala, hippocampus and mediodorsal thalamus in anxiety disorders are well documented, molecular mechanisms contributing to the functions of these structures are poorly understood. Here we report that deletion of Lynx2, a mammalian prototoxin gene that is expressed at hi...
