An anxiolytic-like effect of ondansetron disappears in oxazepam-tolerant rats

Six novel mutations were identified in the NF2 tumor suppressor gene in a panel of meningiomas and neurinomas. Screening was performed using a combination of single-strand conformation polymorphism and heteroduplex analyses on polymerase chain reaction-amplified DNA from tumors and matched peripheral blood lymphocytes. Mutations involved exons 2, 7, 11 and 12, and corresponded to three frameshift, one nonsense, one missense and one polymorphism.
