Differential effects of corticosterone on the colocalization of reelin and neuronal nitric oxide synthase in the adult hippocampus in wild type and heterozygous reeler mice.

Abstract excerpt

Repeated corticosterone (CORT) treatment induces a deficit in dentate gyrus subgranular zone reelin-positive cells, in maturation of newborn neurons, and results in a consistent depressive-like behavior. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these processes are not known in detail. The purpose of the present study was to characterize the effect of three weeks of 20mg/kg CORT injections in the number of...
