    Deletion of JMJD2B in neurons leads to defective spine maturation, hyperactive behavior and memory deficits in mouse

    JMJD2B is a histone demethylase enzyme that regulates gene expression through demethylation of H3K9me3. Although mutations of JMJD2B have been suggested to be responsible for neurodevelopmental disorders, the ...

    Effect of peripheral lipopolysaccharide injection on dopamine content in murine anterior olfactory nucleus

    Norepinephrine turnover rate in the murine locus coeruleus (LC) is known to be enhanced by the intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Approximately 40% of LC neurons are also known to p...
