Chrna7 deficient mice manifest no consistent neuropsychiatric and behavioral phenotypes
The alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, encoded by the CHRNA7 gene, has been implicated in various psychiatric and behavioral disorders, including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, epilepsy, autism, Alzheimer's disease, and Parkinson's disease, and is considered a potential target for therapeutic intervention. 15q13.3 microdeletion syndrome is a rare genetic disorder, caused by submicroscop...
متن کاملArid1b haploinsufficient mice reveal neuropsychiatric phenotypes and reversible causes of growth impairment
Sequencing studies have implicated haploinsufficiency of ARID1B, a SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling subunit, in short stature (Yu et al., 2015), autism spectrum disorder (O'Roak et al., 2012), intellectual disability (Deciphering Developmental Disorders Study, 2015), and corpus callosum agenesis (Halgren et al., 2012). In addition, ARID1B is the most common cause of Coffin-Siris syndrome, a develop...
متن کاملSex-Specific and Strain-Dependent Effects of Early Life Adversity on Behavioral and Epigenetic Outcomes
Early life adversity can have a significant long-term impact with implications for the emergence of psychopathology. Disruption to mother-infant interactions is a form of early life adversity that may, in particular, have profound programing effects on the developing brain. However, despite converging evidence from human and animal studies, the precise mechanistic pathways underlying adversity-...
متن کاملDetour tests reveal task- and stimulus-specific behavioral lateralization in mosquitofish (Gambusia holbrooki).
We studied detour responses of male mosquitofish faced with a vertical-bar barrier through which a group of females was visible. Mosquitofish showed a consistent population bias to detour the barrier preferentially leftwise when a straight barrier was used, whilst the asymmetry disappeared if a U-shaped barrier was used. The leftward bias was apparent even when using a simulated-predator as a t...
متن کاملStrain dependent effects of sex hormones on hepatocarcinogenesis in mice.
In order to study the interaction of genetic and hormonal factors during murine hepatocarcinogenesis, we compared the number of liver tumors induced by treatment of 12-day-old mice with N,N-diethylnitrosamine (DEN) (0.05 mumol/g body wt) in intact mice and animals gonadectomized at 8 weeks of age from the three inbred strains, C3H/HeJ (C3H), C57BL/6J (B6), and C57BR/cdJ (BR). At 50 weeks of age...
