Disruption of the Serotonergic System after Neonatal Hypoxia-Ischemia in a Rodent Model by Kathryn M. Buller, Julie A. Wixey, Hanna E. Reinebrant

“…Here we describe our current work investigating how the serotonergic network in the brain is disrupted in a rodent model of preterm hypoxia-ischemia. One week after postnatal day 3 hypoxia-ischemia, losses of serotonergic raphé neurons, reductions in serotonin levels in the brain, and reduced serotonin transporter expression are evident. …”

Circulating Irisin Levels Are Not Regulated by Nutritional Status, Obesity, or Leptin Levels in Rodents by Mar Quiñones, Cintia Folgueira, Estrella Sánchez-Rebordelo, Omar Al-Massadi

“…These results suggest that in rodents circulating levels of irisin are not involved in the pathophysiology of obesity and could be unrelated to metabolic status; however, further studies should clarify its precise role in states of glucose homeostasis imbalance.…”

Prefrontal contributions to mental resilience: Lessons from rodent studies of stress and antidepressant actions by Ryota Shinohara, Tomoyuki Furuyashiki

“…However, the neural mechanisms of stress resilience and its relevance to antidepressant actions remain elusive. In rodents, chronic stress induces dendritic atrophy and decreases dendritic spine density in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), recapitulating prefrontal alterations in depressive patients, and the mPFC promotes stress resilience. …”
