Prefrontal-medullary circuitry is necessary for sex-specific responses to metabolic stress in rats

Carley G. Dearing, Ema Lukinic, Carlie McCartney, Sebastian A. Pace, Brent Myers

This study shows that the IL-RVLM circuit is essential for sex-specific glucose homeostasis under chronic stress in rats.

Infralimbic prefrontal cortical projections to the autonomic brainstem: Quantification of inputs to cholinergic and adrenergic/noradrenergic nuclei

Ema Lukinic, Tyler Wallace, Carlie McCartney, Brent Myers

This study quantifies infralimbic cortical projections to autonomic brainstem nuclei in rats, revealing differential targeting of cholinergic and adrenergic/noradrenergic regions.

Cortical-brainstem circuitry attenuates physiological stress reactivity

Sebastian A. Pace, Ema Lukinic, Tyler Wallace, Carlie McCartney, Brent Myers

This study identifies a direct vmPFC-RVLM circuit that reduces endocrine stress responses by recruiting inhibitory neurons in the medulla, with effects observed in both male and female rats.
