Adolescence is a time of significant neurocognitive development. Prolonged maturation prefrontal cortex (PFC) through adolescence has been found to support improvements in executive function. Changes excitatory and inhibitory mechanisms critical period plasticity have be present the PFC adolescence, suggesting that environment may greater effect on development during this time. Stress one factor known affect neurodevelopment increasing risk for psychopathology. However, less about how stress experienced could adolescent-specific cognitive outcomes. In review, we synthesize findings from human animal literatures looking at experience cognition frontal neural activity. Studies indicate enhancing effects acute excitation within specific contexts, while chronic generally dampens processes impairs cognition. We propose model plasticity, thus potentially altering neurodevelopmental trajectories lead

Repeated stress gradually impairs auditory processing and perception

Repetitive stress, a common feature of modern life, is major risk factor for psychiatric and sensory disorders. Despite the prevalence perceptual abnormalities in these disorders, little known about how repetitive stress affects processing perception. Here, we combine mice, longitudinal measurement cortical activity, auditory-guided behaviors to test if sound perception neutral sounds adults are modulated by stress. We found that alters processing, increasing spontaneous activity while dampening sound-evoked responses pyramidal PV cells heightening SST cells. These alterations auditory culminated shifts, particularly reduction loudness Additionally, our work reveals impact on evolves gradually as stressor persists over time, emphasizing dynamic evolving nature this mechanism. Our findings provide insight into possible mechanism which behavior, challenging idea primarily modulates emotionally charged stimuli.

Early-Life Stress Caused by Maternal Deprivation Impacts Dendritic Morphology of Adult Male Mouse Neocortical Interneurons

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 26(5), С. 1909 - 1909

A substantial body of research suggests that early-life stress (ELS) is associated with neuropathology in adulthood. Maternal deprivation (MD) a commonly utilised model mice for the study specific neurological diseases. The appropriate growth dendrites essential optimal functioning nervous system. However, impact ELS on interneuron dendritic morphology remains unclear. To ascertain whether induces alterations GABAergic inhibitory interneurons layers II/III medial entorhinal cortex (mEC), somatosensory (SSC), motor (MC), and CA1 region hippocampus (Hp), 9-day-old male GAD-67-EGFP transgenic were subjected to 24 h MD. At postnatal day 60 (P60), animals sacrificed, their brains morphological analyses. results indicated MD affected interneurons. mean length segments examined cortical areas, except MC, significantly decreased, whereas number primary was unaffected. Furthermore, density GAD67-EGFP-positive decreased mEC Hp, but not MC. induction through developmental time window when significant changes occur rendered developing cells particularly susceptible stress, resulting reduction surviving at adult stage.

Adverse experiences during infancy and adolescence have an important enduring effect on the brain are predisposing factors for mental disorders, particularly major depression. This impact is notable in regions with protracted development, such as prefrontal cortex. The inhibitory neurons of this cortical region altered by peripubertal stress (PPS), female mice. In study we explored whether circuits thalamus impacted PPS male diencephalic structure, cortex, also completes its development postnatal life affected adverse experiences. long-term changes induced were exclusively found adult We that increases depressive-like behavior induces parvalbumin-expressing (PV+) cells thalamic reticular nucleus (TRN). observed reductions volume TRN, together those parameters related to structures/molecules regulate plasticity connectivity PV+ cells: perineuronal nets, matricellular structures surrounding neurons, polysialylated form neural cell adhesion molecule (PSA-NCAM). expression GluN1, but not GluN2C, NMDA receptor subunit was augmented TRN after PPS.

Chronic stress exerts profound negative effects on cognitive and emotional behaviours is a major risk factor for the development of neuropsychiatric disorders. However, molecular links between chronic its deleterious neuronal synaptic function remain elusive. Here, using combination in vitro vivo approaches, we demonstrate that upregulation miR-186-5p triggered by may be key mediator such changes, leading to dysfunction. Our results show expression levels are increased both in prefrontal cortex (PFC) mice exposed cortical neurons chronically dexamethasone. Additionally, viral overexpression PFC naïve induces anxiety- depressive-like behaviours. The through prolonged glucocorticoid receptor activation differentially affects glutamatergic GABAergic transmission, causing an imbalance excitation/inhibition altered network activity. At synapses, observed reduction AMPAR along with switch their subunit composition, whereas transmission was strengthened. These changes could rescued inhibitor. Overall, our establish novel link activation, induced stress, amenable therapeutic intervention.

Abstract Early postnatal development is a critical period for the configuration of neural networks that support emotional and socio-affective behaviors. In this sense, children raised in stressful environments are at high risk developing maladaptive behaviors immediately or later life, including anti-social aggressive However, neurobiological bases such phenomena remain poorly understood. Here we showed that, long-term, maternal separation with early weaning (MSEW) decreased density somatostatin (SST) interneurons basolateral amygdala (BLA) females males, while their activity was only reduced medial (MeA) males. Interestingly, hypoactivity resulted increased aggressivity low social interest. To test whether manipulation MeA SST+ sufficient to reverse these negative behavioral outcomes, chemogenetically expressed hM3Dq receptors MSEW adult We found activation ameliorated interaction aggression traits. Altogether, our results highlight role neurons regulation interest point loss as plausible etiological mechanism linking life stress life.
