The unconditioned fear response in dystrophin-deficient mice is associated with adrenal and vascular function
Abstract Loss of function mutations in the gene encoding dystrophin elicits a hypersensitive fear response in mice and humans. In the dystrophin-deficient mdx mouse, this behaviour is partially protected by oestrogen, but the mechanistic basis for this protection is unknown. Here, we show that femal...
