Utility of siRNA against Keap1 as a strategy to stimulate a cancer chemopreventive phenotype.

abstract：:Although neural circuits mediating various simple behaviors have been delineated, those generating more complex behaviors are less well described. The discrete structure of avian song control nuclei promises that circuits controlling complex behaviors, such as birdsong, can also be understood. To this end, we develope...
