Exposure to prolonged stress results in structural and functional alterations in the
hippocampus including reduced long‐term potentiation (LTP), neurogenesis, spatial …

Adult neurogenesis, particularly in the subgranular zone, is thought to be linked with
learning and memory. Chronic stress inhibits adult hippocampal neurogenesis and also …

Chronic stress has detrimental effects on hippocampal integrity, while environmental
enrichment (EE) has beneficial effects when initiated early in development. In this study, we …

Stress in early life is believed to cause cognitive and affective disorders, and to disrupt
hippocampal synaptic plasticity in adolescence into adult, but it is unclear whether exposure …

Chronic stress impairs spatial memory and alters hippocampal structure, which are changed
in the opposite direction following enriched environment (EE). Therefore, this study …

Severe depression compromises structural and functional integrity of the brain and results in
impaired learning and memory, maladaptive synaptic plasticity as well as degenerative …

Severe and prolonged stress is the main environmental factor that precipitates depression,
anxiety and cognitive dysfunctions. On the other hand, exposure to environmental …

Prenatal stress can cause long-term effects on cognitive functions in offspring. Hippocampal
synaptic plasticity, believed to be the mechanism underlying certain types of learning and …

Chronic restraint stress causes spatial learning and memory deficits, dendritic atrophy of the
hippocampal pyramidal neurons and alterations in the levels of neurotransmitters in the …

Behavioral stress can either block or facilitate memory and affect the induction of long-term
potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD). However, the relevance of the stress …
