Abstract excerpt
Specific features of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) metabolism were studied in the brain of mutant sapphire minks, homozygous at genes determining silver-blue and Aleutian fur color (ppaa), and silver-blue minks (pp) in comparison with the standard-colored minks (++/++). In the midbrain of...
