Recovery from social isolation requires dopamine in males, but not the autism-related gene nlg3 in either sex

Ryley T. Yost, Andrew M. Scott, Judy M. Kurbaj, Brendan Walshe‐Roussel, Reuven Dukas, Anne F. Simon

This study shows that dopamine, but not the autism-related gene nlg3, is required for male vinegar flies to recover from social isolation, with sex-specific effects on dopamine levels.
