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 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.

This study investigates how chronic stress affects intestinal barrier function and microbiota in mice, revealing sex-specific effects and potential translational relevance to human depression.
