Chronic hM4Di-DREADD mediated chemogenetic inhibition of forebrain excitatory neurons in postnatal or juvenile life does not alter adult mood-related behavior
Abstract:The experience of early adversity can program persistent alterations in mood-states. It has been suggested that a perturbation of signalling pathways within forebrain neurocircuits, in particular a disruption of the balance between Gq and Gi-signaling in forebrain excitatory neurons during critical developmental epochs may program dysregulation of anxio-depressive behaviors. Prior evidence indicates that increased Gq-signaling mediated activation of forebrain excitatory neurons in postnatal life can enhance ad… Show more
