Individual differences in stereotypy and neuron subtype translatome with TrkB deletion

Michel Engeln, Yang Song, Ramesh Chandra, Ashley M. La, Megan E. Fox, Brianna Evans, Makeda D. Turner, Shavin Thomas, Tanner Chase Francis, Ronna P. Hertzano, Mary Kay Lobo

The paper investigates how TrkB deletion in D1-MSNs leads to stereotypy behavior and identifies molecular and morphological changes in these neurons.
