Loss of the zinc receptor ZnR/GPR39 in mice enhances anxiety-related behavior and motor deficits, and modulates KCC2 expression in the amygdala

Abstract Background Mood disorders, particularly depression and anxiety, are associated with zinc dyshomeostasis and aberrant GABAergic signaling. Activation of ZnR/GPR39 by synaptic zinc in the hippocampus triggers phosphorylation of extracellular regulated kinase (ERK1/2), which regulates the K+/C...
