Abstract:Impulsive behavior and impulsivity are heritable phenotypes that are strongly associated with risk for substance use disorders in human subjects. Consequently, identifying the neurogenetic mechanisms that influence impulsivity may also reveal novel biological insights into addiction vulnerability. Past studies from our laboratory using the BXD and Collaborative Cross (CC) recombinant inbred mouse panels have revealed that behavioral indicators of impulsivity measured in a reversal learning task are heritable a… Show more
