Scientists pinpoint brain circuits linked to either resilience or vulnerability to adversity, which affect a stressed animal’s pursuit of pleasure. Skip to main content Thank you for visiting ...

The researchers found that stress changes activity in a brain circuit in mice, and these changes distinguish the mice that will recover from the ones that won’t. They stimulated some of the neurons in ...

Researchers have discovered that astrocytes play an important role in regulating stress responses in the lateral septum in the brain ... the molecular and neural circuit levels and allows a ...

This circuit slows breathing and reduces anxiety, offering a neural basis for practices like mindfulness. Findings may inspire therapeutics for anxiety and stress disorders, including drugs mimicking ...

Subtle activation of a small subset of neurons in one region of the brain can make male mice resilient to, and even reverse, the detrimental effects of chronic stress. The same is true for female mice ...

Neurons in mouse brain ... first assessed a brain connectivity database to probe connections between different brain areas. The analysis revealed a potential breathing circuit connecting a frontal ...
