Immediate early genes act in the medial hypothalamus to promote adaptation to social defeat
Rahul Sureka, Silvia Natale, Sukrita Deb…·Cornelius Thilo Gross
The paper investigates the role of immediate early genes (IEGs) in social defeat-induced behavioral plasticity in the medial hypothalamus, finding that IEG activity is critical for adaptation and that NMDA receptor mechanisms may oppose this effect.
