Deficient sensorimotor gating induced by selective breeding in rats is improved by entopeduncular nucleus lesions
Deficient prepulse inhibition (PPI) of startle reflects disturbed sensorimotor gating found in certain neuropsychiatric disorders, such as Tourette's syndrome, ADHD, Huntington's and schizophrenia. We here tested, whether lesions of the entopeduncular nucleus (EPN) would improve a PPI-defi...
