Quality and Timing of Stressors Differentially Impact on Brain Plasticity and Neuroendocrine-Immune Function in Mice

Figure 1

Effect of restraint stress on CORT secretion in mice. All subjects undergoing RS showed a reduced response of the HPA axis on day 7 (a). Effect of social stress on CORT secretion in mice. The response to an acute challenge (represented by the Social Interaction Test) was effective in inducing an increase in CORT secretion in all groups, with no differences in relation to social stress exposure (b). Results are presented as mean + S.E.M. * .
