Chronic Stress Effects on Hippocampal Structure and Synaptic Function: Relevance for Depression and Normalization by Anti-Glucocorticoid Treatment
Exposure of an organism to environmental challenges activates two hormonal systems that help the organism to adapt. As part of this adaptational process, brain processes are changed such that appropriate behavioral strategies are selected that allow optimal performance at the short term, while relevant information is stored for the future. Over the past years it has become evident that chronic ...
متن کاملEffects of dalteparin on structure of hippocampal neurons of rats in chronic stress
Introduction: Stress is defined as any environmental change that disturbs the maintenance of brain homeostasis. Stress leads to production of pro-inflammatory cytokines that provoke neurodegenerative disorders. In the present study, we investigated the effects of dalteparin on hippocampal neuronal death induced by chronic stress in rats. Methods: the study was carried out on 60 adult male wista...
متن کاملThe corticosterone synthesis inhibitor metyrapone prevents hypoxia/ischemia-induced loss of synaptic function in the rat hippocampus.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Ischemia is accompanied by abundant corticosterone secretion, which could potentially exacerbate brain damage via activation of glucocorticoid receptors. We addressed whether manipulating steroid levels during ischemia affects hippocampal synaptic function along with neuronal structure. Moreover, we established whether pretreatment with the glucocorticoid receptor antagon...
متن کاملبررسی اثر تحمل دارویی ناشی از مصرف مزمن مرفین و سالیسیلات بر شکل پذیری سیناپسی
Background & Aim: Salicylates and opioids are widely used in chronic pain relief. Chronic use of these drugs reorganizes synaptic function, especially experience-dependent plasticity in brain regions. Therefore, in this study the effects of chronic administration of salicylate and morphine on synaptic plasticity were investigated. Methods: in this review, Elsevier, Science Direct, PubMed and G...
متن کاملUnraveling the time domains of corticosteroid hormone influences on brain activity: rapid, slow, and chronic modes.
Brain cells are continuously exposed to corticosteroid hormones, although the levels vary (e.g., after stress). Corticosteroids alter neural activity via two receptor types, mineralocorticoid (MR) and glucocorticoid receptors (GR). These receptors regulate gene transcription but also, as we now know, act nongenomically. Via nongenomic pathways, MRs enhance and GRs suppress neural activity. In t...
