Cutting Glycine Decarboxylase Production in Mice Neurons Produces Antidepressive-like Phenotype in Mice
By: Holly Daykin Abstract We conducted an experiment to examine the effect of glycine on depressive-like behavior in mice. We bred mice to have the Nsun2 gene knocked out in their neurons, which removes glycine from the mice’s neurons. Then, three behavioral tests were conducted to compare the depressive-like behavior of the knockout mice and…
