摘要
Transgenic mice lacking expression of the OFQ/N precursor protein have provided exciting insights in the physiological functions of this neuropeptide system. While injection of OFQ/N or selective synthetic agonists produces anxiolytic effects in rodents, OFQ/N knockout mice display increased anxiety and impaired adaptation to repeated stress. On the other hand, mice lacking the cognate OFQ/N receptor, ORL1, show improved spatial attention and memory but appear to have normal anxiety and stress behavior. Availability of a selective small molecule OFQ/N antagonist might help clarify this discrepancy. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
