New insights into the endocrine and metabolic roles of dopamine D2 receptors gained from the Drd2 mouse.

abstract：:Glucocorticoid hormones have important effects on brain function in the context of acute and chronic stress. Many of these are mediated by the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). GR has transcriptional activity which is highly context-specific and differs between tissues and even between cell types. The outcome of GR-mediat...
