Experiments on rats in which hydrocortisone was given in the early postnatal period were used to study the effects of intrastriatal microinjection of corticoliberin on behavior in an open field test. Bilateral microinjection of corticoliberin into the neostriatum led to a sharp reduction in orientational-investigative activity. Rats given hydrocortisone in the first days of life had elevated movement activity, and the anxiogenic effect of corticoliberin was absent in these animals.

Chronic stress can result in various conditions, including psychological disorders, neurodegenerative diseases, and accelerated brain aging. Gut dysbiosis potentially contributes to stress-related brain disorders in individuals with chronic stress. However, the causal relationship and key factors between gut dysbiosis and brain disorders in chronic stress remain elusive, particularly under non-sterile conditions.

Depression is a pervasive mood disorder that continues to challenge researchers and clinicians worldwide. Caffeine and its derivatives have been studied for their neuroprotective and antidepressant effect. Current study aimed to explore the potential antidepressant effect of a caffeine derivative, Sy-2476 [4-(1, 3, 7-trimethyl-2, 6-dioxo-2, 3, 6, 7-tetrahydro-1H-purin-8-yl) benzo nitrile], in corticosterone-induced rat model of depression.

Objective: Chronic use of glucocorticoids during childhood can lead to a decrease in hormone release, including ACTH, GH, TSH, and LH, as well as reduced IGF-1 activity. This can result in osteoporotic changes and hinder growth in height. Resveratrol, an antioxidant with phytoestrogen properties, may improve bone health by increasing bone mineral density in postmenopausal women.

Myocardial dysfunction is a major cause of early mortality after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) following cardiac arrest (CA). Following the return of spontaneous circulation, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury can activate the NF-κB pathway, leading to the transcription of inflammatory genes that impair myocardial function. While clinical studies show hydrocortisone (HC) improves outcomes in CA patients during CPR, its specific role in modulating the NF-κB pathway is unclear.

This study was conducted to determine the effects of two different types of fat (krill oil [KO] and coconut oil [CO]) on obesity, behavioral tests, and some inflammatory markers when consumed with a high-fat or control diet in rats with depression. The study was conducted mainly in two phases: the induction of depression (37 days) and the dietary intervention (60 days). After the induction of depression by chronic unpredictable mild stress, dietary intervention started.
