Deletion of glutamate delta-1 receptor in mouse leads to enhanced working memory and deficit in fear conditioning.
Glutamate delta-1 (GluD1) receptors are expressed throughout the forebrain during development with high levels in the hippocampus during adulthood. We have recently shown that deletion of GluD1 receptor results in aberrant emotional and social behaviors such as hyperaggression and depression-like be...
