Corticosterone drives behavioral inflexibility via plasticity-related gene expression in the dorsal striatum
2025-07-24
Abstract excerpt
Behavioral flexibility allows organisms to modify actions based on new information, such as shifts in reward value or availability, and is promoted by the dorsomedial striatum (DMS). In contrast, behavioral inflexibility provides efficiency and automaticity in familiar contexts, and is promoted by the dorsolateral striatum (DLS). Importantly, chronic elevation of the primary stress hormone, corticosterone (CORT) i...
