Early life stress accelerates behavioral and neural maturation of the hippocampus in male mice.
Early life stress (ELS) increases the risk for later cognitive and emotional dysfunction. ELS is known to truncate neural development through effects on suppressing cell birth, increasing cell death, and altering neuronal morphology, effects that have been associated with behavioral profiles indicative of precocious maturation. However, how earlier silencing of growth drives accelerated behavio...
متن کاملEffects of Mineralocorticoid Receptor Overexpression on Anxiety and Memory after Early Life Stress in Female Mice
Early-life stress (ELS) is a risk factor for the development of psychopathology, particularly in women. Human studies have shown that certain haplotypes of NR3C2, encoding the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), that result in gain of function, may protect against the consequences of stress exposure, including childhood trauma. Here, we tested the hypothesis that forebrain-specific overexpression ...
متن کاملPossible intracellular regulators of female sexual maturation.
Protein kinases, transcription factors and other apoptosis- and proliferation-related proteins can regulate reproduction, but their involvement in sexual maturation remains to be elucidated. The general aim of the in vivo and in vitro experiments with porcine ovarian granulosa cells was to identify possible intracellular regulators of female sexual maturation. For this purpose, proliferation (e...
متن کاملAcceleration and delay of sexual maturation in female house mice previously selected for early and late first vaginal oestrus.
Female mice previously selected for early and late sexual maturation were tested to determine whether they retained flexibility in age of puberty in response to pheromonal and social cues. First vaginal oestrus in fst-maturing females could be delayed but not accelerated by social cues. Conversely, puberty in slow-maturing females could be accelerated in their sexual development, but not delaye...
متن کاملSurgical Stress Delays Prostate Involution in Mice
Androgens control growth of prostate epithelial cells and androgen deprivation induces apoptosis, leading to prostate involution. We investigated the effects of surgical stress on prostate involution induced by androgen ablation and determined the underlying mechanisms. Androgen ablation in mice was induced by surgical castration and administration of the anti-androgenic drugs bicalutamide and ...
