For each identified MR, we also mined the literature to check whether or not they are expressed in stress-related regions in the brain such as amygdala, hippocampus etc. A recent study demonstrates STAT2 to be differentially expressed in a well-characterized rat model of temporal lobe epilepsy evoked by electrical stimulation of the amygdala52. The gene discussed is STAT2; the disease is temporal lobe epilepsy.
