Social affective behaviors among female rats involve the basolateral amygdala and insular cortex

Anthony Djerdjaj, Nathaniel S. Rieger, Bridget H. Brady, Bridget N. Carey, Alexandra J. Ng, John P. Christianson

This study investigates the role of the basolateral amygdala and insular cortex in social affective behavior in female rats, finding that these regions are necessary for appropriate social affective responses.

Maternal immune activation alters social affective behavior and sensitivity to corticotropin releasing factor in male but not female rats

Nathaniel S. Rieger, Alexandra J. Ng, Shanon Lee, Bridget H. Brady, John P. Christianson

This study shows that maternal immune activation affects social behavior and corticotropin releasing factor sensitivity in male but not female rats, suggesting sex-specific neurobiological mechanisms for autism risk.

Insular cortex corticotropin-releasing factor integrates stress signaling with social decision making.

Nathaniel S. Rieger, Juan A. Varela, Alexandra J. Ng, Lauren E. Granata, Anthony Djerdjaj, Heather C. Brenhouse, John P. Christianson

This study shows that CRF in the insular cortex affects social decision making differently in males and females through sex-specific interactions with CRF1 and CB1 receptors.
