Stress-Induced Depression: Is Social Rank a Predictive Risk Factor?

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Thomas Didier Larrieu

An intriguing question in the field of stress is what makes an individual more likely to be susceptible or resilient to stress‐induced depression. Predisposition to stress susceptibility is believed to be influenced by genetic factors and early adversity. ...

An energetic view of stress: Focus on mitochondria

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

Energy is required to sustain life and enable stress adaptation. At the cellular level, energy is largely derived from mitochondria – unique multifunctional organelles with their own genome. Four main elements connect mitochondria to stress: 1) Energy is r ...

High anxiety trait: A vulnerable phenotype for stress-induced depression

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Meltem Weger

A great deal of research aims to identify risk factors related to individual vulnerability to develop stress-induced psychopathologies. Here, we summarize evidence that point at anxiety trait as a significant contributor to inter-individual differences in ...

Constitutive differences in habituation of the glucocorticoid response to stress are related to variation in aggression and anxiety-related behaviors

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Olivia Zanoletti, Sophie Elizabeth Walker, Marie-Isabelle Guillot de Suduiraut

Glucocorticoids coordinate responses that enable an individual to cope with stressful challenges and, additionally, mediate adaptation following cessation of a stressor. There are important individual differences in the magnitude of glucocorticoid responsi ...

Acute stress alters individual risk taking in a time-dependent manner and leads to anti-social risk

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Samuel Bendahan, Fiona Hollis, John Christian Thoresen, Lorenz Goette, Leyla Loued-Khenissi

Decision-making processes can be modulated by stress, and the time elapsed from stress induction seems to be a crucial factor in determining the direction of the effects. Although current approaches consider the ﬁrst post-stress hour a uniform period, the ...

Brain metabolic alterations in mice subjected to postnatal traumatic stress and in their offspring

João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Alberto Corcoba

Adverse environmental and social conditions early in life have a strong impact on health. They are major risk factors for mental diseases in adulthood and, in some cases, their effects can be transmitted across generations. The consequences of detrimental ...

Implication of individual differences in glucocorticoid responsiveness to stress in the development of psychopathology-like behaviour and underlying neurobiology

Sophie Elizabeth Walker

The period around puberty is a critical window in development. It is a time of neuroendocrine and neuroanatomical lability, rendering individuals highly sensitive to stress. Indeed, early adversity increases risk for psychopathology. The mechanisms via whi ...

New insights into ROS dynamics: a multi-layered microfluidic chip for ecotoxicological studies on aquatic microorganisms

Christian Santschi, Olivier Martin, Volodymyr Koman, Nadia Rachel Von Moos

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an important role in the life of every cell, including cellular defense and signaling mechanisms. Continuous and quantitative ROS sensing can provide valuable information about the cell state, but it remains a challenge t ...

Diurnal variations of hormonal secretion, alertness and cognition in extreme chronotypes under different lighting conditions

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Apiparn Borisuit, Mirjam Münch, Lenka Maierova

Circadian rhythms in physiology and behavior are modulated by external factors such as light or temperature. We studied whether self-selected office lighting during the habitual waking period had a different impact on alertness, cognitive performance and h ...

Intestinal steroidogenesis controls PPAR expression in the colon and is impaired during ulcerative colitis

Johan Auwerx

Background and aims Immune tolerance breakdown during UC involves the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor- (PPAR), a key factor in mucosal homoeostasis and the therapeutic target of 5-aminosalycilates, which expression is impaired during UC. Here we ...

The effects of stress during early postnatal periods on behavior and hippocampal neuroplasticity markers in adult male mice

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Olivia Zanoletti, Jocelin Grosse, Michael van der Kooij

Infancy is a critical period for brain development. Emerging evidence indicates that stress experienced during that period can have long-term programming effects on the brain and behavior. However, whether different time periods represent different vulnera ...
