Chronic social defeat stress in female mice leads to sex-specific behavioral and neuroendocrine effects

TL;DR: There are differences in the way that female and male mice respond towards chronic social stress conditions when it comes to behavior and hormonal changes, which are partially dependent on estrous cycle stage.
Journal ArticleDOI

The co-chaperone FKBP51 modulates HPA axis activity and age-related maladaptation of the stress system in pituitary proopiomelanocortin cells

TL;DR: In this article , a combination of endogenous knockout and viral rescue was used to show that male mice lacking FKBP51 in Pomc-expressing cells exhibit enhanced glucocorticoid (GC)-mediated negative feedback and are protected from age-related disruption of their diurnal corticosterone (CORT) rhythm.

Mediobasal hypothalamic FKBP51 acts as a molecular switch linking autophagy to whole-body metabolism

TL;DR: In this article, the FK506-binding protein 51 (FKBP51) is identified as a central nexus for the recruitment of the LKB1/AMPK complex to WIPI4 and TSC2 to WipI3, thereby regulating the balance between autophagy and mTOR signaling.
