Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Staci Angelis"
- Staci Angelis's research primarily focuses on the interaction between neuropeptides, hormones, and chronic stress in relation to anxiety and food-related behaviors in rodent models.
- In her 2019 study, she explored how 17ß-Estradiol influences inhibitory synaptic transmission in the oval bed nucleus of the stria-terminalis, implicating its role in energy homeostasis.
- Her work also highlights the impact of chronic stress on anxiety behaviors, specifically through neurotensin modulation in the BNST, as well as the effect of stress on drug-seeking behavior in addiction, particularly relating to heroin.
