Abstract

Recently, some progress has been made in the clinical study of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). Human research has inherent limitation because of its non-invasive nature, while animal models can break through the shortcomings of human research, allowing us to more accurately study the pathophysiology of OCD. Therefore, many researchers tried to use genetic knockout animal models to further study the etiology of OCD. In this review, recent progress about this kind of research was reviewed. [

Key words： obsessive-compulsive disorder; animal model; gene knockout
