Journal ArticleDOI

Impaired hippocampal-dependent learning and functional abnormalities in the hippocampus in mice lacking serotonin(1A) receptors.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that 5-HT(1A) receptors are required for maintaining normal hippocampal functions and implicate a role for the 5- HT( 1A) receptor in hippocampal-related symptoms, such as cognitive disturbances, in stress-related disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrastructural localization of estrogen receptor β immunoreactivity in the rat hippocampal formation

TL;DR: The results suggest that ERβ may serve primarily as a nongenomic transducer of estrogen actions in the hippocampal formation, more extensively found at extranuclear sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stress and the Adolescent Brain

TL;DR: What is currently known about the pubertal maturation of the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal (HPA) axis, the neuroendocrine axis that mediates the stress response, and how stressors affect the adolescent brain is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hippocampal remodeling and damage by corticosteroids: implications for mood disorders.

TL;DR: Data is examined on the role of corticosteroids in hippocampal remodeling and atrophy in patients with mood disorders, and interventions to prevent or reverse the damaging effects of cortICosteroids on the hippocampus are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estrogen alters hippocampal dendritic spine shape and enhances synaptic protein immunoreactivity and spatial memory in female mice

TL;DR: A previously uncharacterized role of E in synaptic structural plasticity that may be interpreted as a facilitation of the spine-maturation process and may be associated with enhancement of hippocampal-dependent memory is suggested.
