Receptors of the serotonin 1C subtype expressed from cloned DNA mediate the closing of K+ membrane channels encoded by brain mRNA.

abstract：:Remembering and discriminating objects based on their previously learned values are essential for goal-directed behaviors. While the cerebral cortex is known to contribute to object recognition, surprisingly little is known about its role in retaining long-term object-value associations. To address this question, we t...
