简介
Background
Sex-specific blood-brain barrier (BBB) alterations contribute to stress vulnerability and development of depressive behaviors. Conversely, neurovascular adaptations underlying stress resilience remain unexplored. The endocannabinoid system (ECS) can regulate stress responses and BBB permeability thus, here we evaluate if it could be involved in stress-induced vascular changes.
Methods
Impact of chronic social stress on ECS-related gene expression was measured in male and female C57Bl/6 nucleus accumbens (NAc) and prefrontal cortex (PFC). Cell-specific changes were confirmed with RNA scope, and immunofluorescence in mouse and human samples. Viral-mediated manipulations were performed to confirm causality of altered astrocytic cannabinoid receptor (Cnr1) in establishment of anxiety-and depression-like behaviors at baseline and after stress.
Results
After stress exposure, Cnr1 …
