Title:
MODEL ANIMAL FOR BIPOLAR DISORDER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/049497
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides a nonhuman model animal for bipolar disorder, in which the expression of Teneurin-4 protein is reduced in the prefrontal cortex. The present invention also provides a method for creating a nonhuman model animal for bipolar disorder, the method including reducing the expression of Teneurin-4 protein in the prefrontal cortex.
