Inhibition of neuronal nitric oxide reduces anxiety-like responses to pair housing.

Behavioural brain research - 11 Feb 2008

Workman Joanna L, Trainor Brian C, Finy M Sima, Nelson Randy J

Abstract excerpt

Many psychological disorders are characterized by anxiety and alterations in social interactions. Recent studies demonstrate that the chemical messenger nitric oxide (NO) can regulate both anxiety and social behaviours. We tested whether an enzyme that produces NO in the brain, neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), serves as an interface between social interactions and anxiety-like behaviour. Several...
