| Research Abstract |
The present study was undertaken to assess the validity of Usp46 mutant mice from behavioral standpoint as an animal model for child abuse in human(Usp46 regulates "behavioral despair" in mice). We examined three features in human child abuse :(1) repetition of abuse,(2) succession of child abuse to next generation,(3) stress-induced child abuse. As a result, we found that Usp46 mutant mice possess these three features.
