The finding of elevated D2High receptors in the CaMKIIalpha heterozygous knockout mice is quite interesting, regarding the possiblity that these mice may serve as an animal model of schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. We pointed out the possibility in our paper before(Yamasaki N, 2008), though it was not cited in this paper. I'd like to add that the same KO mice also show decreased cellular activity in dentate gyrus, while it is increased in CA1 in hippocampus (Hattori S, 2013), which is also consistent with the hippocampus dysfunction hypothesis of schizophrenia (Tamminga CA, 2010).
