Genetic variation in FOXP2 alters grey matter concentrations in schizophrenia patients.

abstract：:The role of descending monoaminergic systems in the antinociceptive effect of kyotorphin (Tyr-Arg, KTP) was investigated in mice by means of the tail-pinch test. We compared this effect with that of the delta-opioid receptor agonist [D-Pen(2,5)]-enkephalin (DPDPE). The antinociceptive effect of KTP and DPDPE injected ...
