Article Synopsis
- Previous research indicated that phenytoin might protect the hippocampus from chronic stress damage, but its ability to reverse stress-related issues was unclear.
- The study found that while chronic stress increased motor activity in rats, phenytoin did not change this; however, it successfully reversed long-term memory deficits related to stress as observed through water maze tests.
- Electrophysiological measurements showed that phenytoin helped maintain long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampal CA1 region, suggesting it might be beneficial for treating memory issues linked to depression.
