Journal ArticleDOI
Rearing condition and rh5-HTTLPR interact to influence limbic-hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis response to stress in infant macaques
Christina S. Barr,Timothy K. Newman,Courtney Shannon,Clarissa C. Parker,Rachel L. Dvoskin,Michelle L. Becker,Melanie L. Schwandt,Maribeth Champoux,Klaus-Peter Lesch,David Goldman,Stephen J. Suomi,J. Dee Higley +11 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that serotonin transporter gene variation affects LHPA axis activity and that the influence of rh5-HTTLPR on hormonal responses during stress is modulated by early experience.
Journal ArticleDOI
The utility of the non-human primate; model for studying gene by environment interactions in behavioral research.
Christina S. Barr,Timothy K. Newman,Michelle L. Becker,Clarissa C. Parker,Maribeth Champoux,K.P. Lesch,David Goldman,Stephen J. Suomi,James D. Higley +8 more
TL;DR: Preliminary data presented here highlight the importance of considering gene‐environment interactions when studying childhood risk factors for aggression, anxiety and related neuropsychiatric disorders and support the use of the nonhuman primate for studing gene by environment interactions in behavioral research.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variation in the Form of Pavlovian Conditioned Approach Behavior among Outbred Male Sprague-Dawley Rats from Different Vendors and Colonies: Sign-Tracking vs. Goal-Tracking
Christopher J. Fitzpatrick,Shyam Gopalakrishnan,Elizabeth S. Cogan,Lindsay M. Yager,Paul J. Meyer,Vedran Lovic,Benjamin T. Saunders,Clarissa C. Parker,Natalia M. Gonzales,Emmanuel Aryee,Shelly B. Flagel,Abraham A. Palmer,Terry E. Robinson,Jonathan D. Morrow +13 more
TL;DR: This study quantified sign- and goal-tracking behavior in a reasonably large sample of SD rats obtained from two vendors (Harlan or Charles River), as well as from individual colonies operated by both vendors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome-wide association study of behavioral, physiological and gene expression traits in outbred CFW mice.
Clarissa C. Parker,Shyam Gopalakrishnan,Shyam Gopalakrishnan,Peter Carbonetto,Natalia M. Gonzales,Emily Leung,Yeonhee Jenny Park,Emmanuel Aryee,Joe Davis,David A. Blizard,Cheryl L. Ackert-Bicknell,Arimantas Lionikas,Jonathan K. Pritchard,Abraham A. Palmer +13 more
TL;DR: This study identified numerous behavioral, physiological and expression quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and integrated the behavioral QTL and eQTL results to implicate specific genes, including Azi2 in sensitivity to methamphetamine and Zmynd11 in anxiety-like behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mapping of Craniofacial Traits in Outbred Mice Identifies Major Developmental Genes Involved in Shape Determination.
Luisa F Pallares,Peter Carbonetto,Shyam Gopalakrishnan,Clarissa C. Parker,Cheryl L. Ackert-Bicknell,Abraham A. Palmer,Diethard Tautz +6 more
TL;DR: This study used 3D geometric morphometrics to map genes involved in shape determination in a population of outbred mice and found that craniofacial shape and size are highly heritable, polygenic traits.
