High impact information on Tph2

 

Biological context of Tph2

 

Chemical compound and disease context of Tph2

 

Associations of Tph2 with chemical compounds

  • Our data provide direct evidence for a fundamental role of Tph2 in brain serotonin synthesis [5].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Tph2

  • To that end, we measured Tph1 (classical Tph) and Tph2 mRNA levels using real-time quantitative RT-PCR in the retina [4].
