Research Abstract |
In this study, to elucidate the mechanisms regulating impulsivity in the developmental disorders, I mainly explored the key neuronal molecules related to the expression/formation of impulsive behaviors in model rats of developmental disorder. I investigated using the juvenile stroke-prone spontaneous hypertensive rat (SHRSP/Ezo: Ezo) as an appropriate animal model of "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)" and we also used juvenile SHRSP/Izm (Izm) and SHRSP/Ngsk (Ngsk) which are similar to genetic background of Ezo in the SHR substrain. In comparison with juvenile WKY/Ezo which is a genetic control for Ezo, impulsive behavior in the elevated plus-maze test only observed in the Ezo, but not Izm and Ngsk, which behavioral properties were specific for Ezo. Base on the behavioral result, I explored the polymorphic regions linked Ezo-specific behavior differ from that of Izm and Ngsk using the database determined by global analysis of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). 137 SNPs linked Ezo-specific behavior were identified in the 21,032 candidate genes based on SNPs of Brown Norway rat. These SNPs linked Ezo-specific behavior were retained on the chromosome 7, 9 and X-chromosome. These findings suggested that genetic background associated with impulsive behavior in the Ezo as an ADHD model rat was related to the SNPs on the chromosome 7, 9 and X-chromosome and functional molecules linked to the development and formation of neuronal cells.
