Journal ArticleDOI
Stress and Your Health
TL;DR: You may think illness is to blame for that nagging headache, your frequent insomnia or your decreased productivity at work, but stress may actually be the culprit.
Journal Article
Multiple ovarian hormone effects on brain structure and function.
TL;DR: An important action of ovarian hormones is the regulation of synapse turnover in the hippocampus as exhibited during the fourth or fifth day of a female rat's estrus cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chronic stress alters amphetamine effects on behavior and synaptophysin levels in female rats.

TL;DR: Stress may counteract AMPH effects on the memory task by blocking both the induction of AMPH anxiety-like effects and neuroplastic changes in the caudate nucleus of female rats, and chronic stress counteracts AMPH-dependent impairments in recognition memory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biphasic effects of adrenal steroids on learned helplessness behavior induced by inescapable shock.
TL;DR: Evidence is provided for a U-shaped relationship between the increasing doses of CS administered and escape failures in the LH model and a large decrease in MR availability seems to be necessary to prevent the acquisition and expression of LH.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adrenal steroid modulation of vasoactive intestinal peptide effect on serotonin1 binding sites in the rat brain shown by in vitro quantitative autoradiography.
TL;DR: The present data are suggestive of a possible interaction between VIP and 5-HT in the regulation of the SCN and of a modulatory role of adrenal steroids in VIP activity in the hippocampal formation.
