    SLITRK1-mediated noradrenergic projection suppression in the neonatal prefrontal cortex

    SLITRK1 is an obsessive-compulsive disorder spectrum-disorders-associated gene that encodes a neuronal transmembrane protein. Here we show that SLITRK1 suppresses noradrenergic projections in the neonatal prefron...
