Genetic background influences the effect of thirdhand smoke exposure on anxiety and memory in Collaborative Cross mice

Abstract Growing evidence indicates that thirdhand smoke (THS) exposure induces many adverse health effects. However, it is unclear how THS exposure affects behavior and how host genetic background modulates phenotypic changes. Here we used the Collaborative Cross (CC) mouse population-based model t...
