“…While its involvement in stress susceptibility is well-documented, the amygdala's role in stress resilience remains less clear. For instance, in a rodent study, it was found that, unlike the hippocampus, which played a role in both stress vulnerability and resilience, the amygdala was primarily associated with stress vulnerability ( Long et al, 2023 ). Similar results had been observed in human cohorts, where the amygdala and its associated connectivity network were linked to stress responses during the COVID-19 pandemic but did not demonstrate the same significance in stress resilience ( Zhou et al, 2023 ).…”
