Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Does fibroblast growth factor 8 regulate postnatal development of paraventricular nucleus neuroendocrine cells?
Answer: First, Fgf8 hypomorphy did not eliminate VP and CRH neurons in the mouse PVN, but rather disrupted the postnatal timing of neuropeptide expression onset in PVN neurons. Second, Fgf8 hypomorphy may, in part, be an explanation for affective disorders involving hyperactivity of the HPA axis, such as anxiety.
Output (English): yes
