摘要
In the present work, we study glucocorticoid receptor (GR) gene expression in gray rats selected for aggressive and domestic behavior, as well as in offspring of mothers with methyl-supplemented diet during pregnancy. Tame selection is associated with increased GR mRNA expression as compared with aggressive rats, whereas maternal methyl-supplemented diet inhibits GR activity in tame rats. GR gene promoter methylation is an important way of altering GR expression.
