The researchers hope the genetically engineered mice can be used in research to treatdepression. The mice are bred so that they are missing a gene called TREK-1, which is linked to the transmission of ...

Researchers develop a novel Tle6 gene hetero knockout mice model to understand the role of this gene in male fertility and find that its deficiency results in abnormal sperm structure, reduced sperm ...

Hyperactivity, repetitive behavior, and language deficits all appeared in the mice, highlighting an unexpected role the cerebellum seems to play in autism. More than 70 genes have been linked to ...
