DOI: 10.1002/dneu.22808
Abstract: Corticosterone is produced by the adrenal glands and also produced locally by other organs, such as the brain. Local levels of corticosterone in specific brain regions during development are not known. Here, we microdissected brain… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13157-019-01130-5
Abstract: Spotted salamanders (Ambystoma maculatum) require vernal pools for breeding habitat. Limited protection and preservation of vernal pools makes suitable habitat creation important. Differences in corticosterone levels, a hormone associated with growth, development, and stress in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.nlm.2017.05.005
Abstract: &NA; Chronic stress causes detrimental effects on various forms of learning and memory. The basolateral amygdala (BLA) not only plays a crucial role in mediating certain forms of memory, but also in the modulation of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1242/jeb.216424
Abstract: ABSTRACT Future environmental variations linked to climate change are expected to influence precipitation regimes and thus drinking water availability. Dehydration can be a particularly challenging physiological state for most organisms, yet no study has examined… read more here.

DOI: 10.1242/jeb.220152
Abstract: ABSTRACT Developmental exposure of embryos to maternal hormones such as testosterone in the avian egg influences the expression of multiple traits, with certain effects being sex specific and lasting into adulthood. This pleiotropy, sex dependency… read more here.

DOI: 10.2186/jpr.jpr_d_22_00255
Abstract: PURPOSE Prenatal stress affects the hippocampal structure and function in pups. Maternal chewing ameliorates hippocampus-dependent cognitive impairments induced by prenatal stress. In this study, we investigated hippocampal microglia-mediated neuroinflammation in pups of dams exposed to… read more here.

Ablation of Gabra5 Influences Corticosterone Levels and Anxiety-like Behavior in Mice
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Genes"
DOI: 10.3390/genes14020285
Abstract: Stress responses are activated by the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA axis), culminating in the release of glucocorticoids. During prolonged periods of secretion of glucocorticoids or inappropriate behavioral responses to a stressor, pathologic conditions may occur. Increased… read more here.
