The paper shows low testosterone increases anxiety by altering astrocytic mitochondrial structure and function at the nucleus accumbens blood-brain barrier in rats.

The paper investigates how early life stress alters brain vascular transcriptomic profiles in regions linked to stress resilience and finds sex- and region-specific changes in BBB gene expression.

This study identifies astrocyte-derived extracellular matrix proteins, particularly SPARC, as regulators of synapse remodeling in stress-induced depression.

The paper identifies female-specific deficits in social modulation after chronic stress using data-driven analysis and proposes a new metric for assessing resilience in female mice.

This study shows that environmental enrichment and physical exercise prevent stress-induced BBB damage and depressive behaviors in mice by increasing Fgf2, which protects Claudin-5 and reduces inflammation.

The paper investigates how serotonin modifies histone H3K4me3Q5ser dynamics in the dorsal raphe nucleus under stress and antidepressant exposure, showing its role in gene expression and behavior.

This study shows that LRRK2-G2019S mutation alters behavioral and synaptic responses to acute social stress in mice, suggesting impaired adaptive plasticity in neural circuits linked to psychopathology.

This study shows orexin signaling in GABAergic lateral habenula neurons promotes aggression and conditioned place preference, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for reducing aggressive behaviors.
