Evaluation of social preference, anxiety, cortisol, and chemically-induced hyperlocomotion in mecp2 null-mutant zebrafish

2024-11-08

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background</bold>: Methyl CpG binding protein 2 (MECP2) is vital for neuronal function as it is an essential global modulator of transcription, and mutations in <italic>MECP2</italic> are the most common cause of Rett syndrome, an X-linked neurodevelopmental disorder. Patients diagnosed with Rett syndrome have increased risk for epilepsy as well as problems with anxiety and social...
