Our laboratory recently discovered the brain 'transmitter' called 'relaxin-3', and are researching how it affects brain activity and animal physiology and behaviour. Findings suggest that relaxin-3 can modulate memory, responses to stress and other complex behaviours. Identifying the various actions of relaxin-3 in the brain could provide potential new treatments for conditions such as anxiety-depression, cognitive deficits (dementia) and schizophrenia.

我们的实验室最近发现了一种叫做“松弛素-3”的大脑“递质”，并正在研究它如何影响大脑活动以及动物的生理和行为。研究结果表明，松弛素-3可以调节记忆，对压力和其他复杂行为的反应。确定松弛素-3在大脑中的各种作用可以为焦虑抑郁症，认知缺陷（痴呆症）和精神分裂症等疾病提供潜在的新疗法。
