Urea accumulation in hippocampus caused by urea transporter B (UT-B) deletion could induce depression-like behavior in mice with unknown mechanism.MKP-1 was reported to be increased in depression patients, serves as a regulator of L-arginine/urea metabolism as well thereby we explore the role of MKP-1 in depression-like behavior of UT-B null mice.
