Abstract excerpt

Levels of endogenous neurotensin (NT-IR) in the LS x SS RI strains differed by 3.0-, 4.7-, 5.4-, and 6.9-fold in the ventral midbrain (VMB), hypothalamus (HY), nucleus accumbens (NA), and caudate putamen (CP), respectively. Frequency distributions and estimates of the number of genes indicate tha...
