Abstract excerpt
Altered RNA editing of serotonin 2C receptor (HTR2C) has been suggested to be involved in the pathophysiology of major depression. Here we examined RNA editing status of HTR2C in the learned helplessness (LH) rats, one of well-established animal models of depression. LH rats showed the significantly increased RNA editing of site E, and tendency for increased RNA editing of other editing sites. Treatment with...
