Maternal separation is an animal model to neonatal stress. It is of great interest the study of brain changes promoted by maternal separation, and whether they can be reversed or attenuated by environmental enrichment. Decrease of the prefrontal cortex or hippocampus volumes observed in schizophrenic or chronically depressed patients may be partly due to a reduction in neurogenesis and/or…
The posterodorsal medial amygdala (MePD) modulates different social behaviors and displays notable sexual dimorphism and plasticity in rats. It is not known the presence of receptors in differently shaped dendritic spine, that could provide insights about the synaptic organization of the MePD and the activity of local neurons. LIM homeobox (Lhx) transcription factors may be involved in th…
The maternal separation, considered for many researchs as a model of depression and postnatal stress, promotes several behavioral and brain changes. Animals submitted to the maternal separation have, during adulthood, incresead responses of the HPA axis to stress stimuli, reduction of the hippocampal neurogenesis and reduction of the desinty of dentritic spines in several brain structures…

Stressful events in childhood promote brain and behavioral changes that persist throughout life. Maternal separation is one of the most used animal models to study the effects caused by neonatal stress and several disorders such as depression and schizophrenia. The volume of the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus are reduced in many psychiatric disorders. Reduction in the number of granule…
Morphological and functional changes of neurons occur along aging, with increased incidence of neurodegenerative diseases. Following the evolution of the lipofuscin granules along three periods of life (20 to 28; 37 to 41; and 50 to 55 years old) of patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy, the present work investigated synaptic changes, as well as proteins associated with neurodegener…
