Stress-induced sensitization: the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and beyond.
Exposure to certain acute and chronic stressors results in an immediate behavioral and physiological response to the situation followed by a period of days when cross-sensitization to further novel stressors is observed. Cross-sensitization affects to different behavioral and physiological systems, more particularly to the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. It appears that the nature of...
متن کاملThe multifaceted therapeutic potential of valproic acid beyond CNS axis
Valproic acid is widely used as an anti-epileptic globally. Anti-epileptic action is mediated by Gamma Amino Butyric Acid (GABA) receptors. In past and recently, several other clinical outcomes have been proposed by various studies. These under-reported clinical actions apart from anti-epileptic activity are mediated by various intracellular and extracellular pathways. Several mechanisms like H...
متن کاملCritical features of acute stress-induced cross-sensitization identified through the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis output
Stress-induced sensitization represents a process whereby prior exposure to severe stressors leaves animals or humans in a hyper-responsive state to further stressors. Indeed, this phenomenon is assumed to be the basis of certain stress-associated pathologies, including post-traumatic stress disorder and psychosis. One biological system particularly prone to sensitization is the hypothalamic-pi...
متن کاملStress-induced sensitization of the hypothalamic-pituitary adrenal axis is associated with alterations of hypothalamic and pituitary gene expression.
We have previously reported that inescapable tail shock (IS) produces persistent changes in hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis function. These changes are manifest as an elevation in basal corticosterone (CORT) levels, a sensitization of adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH) and CORT responses to subsequent challenge, and a failure of dexamethasone to suppress both the ACTH and CORT respons...
متن کاملStress-induced sensitization and glucocorticoids. II. Sensitization of the increase in extracellular dopamine induced by cocaine depends on stress-induced corticosterone secretion.
Secretion of glucocorticoids seems to control stress-induced sensitization of the behavioral effects of drugs of abuse by acting on the mesencephalic dopaminergic transmission, the principal neural substrate of sensitization. In order to investigate the mechanisms of this interaction between glucocorticoids and dopamine, we studied the sensitization of the increase in extracellular concentratio...
