Neurobiology of resilience and vulnerability to chronic stress: Involvement of endogenous opioid circuitry
FY 2008-09
Summary
These experiments will help unravel the organization of opioid neuronal systems related to the stress response, and their role in adaptation to chronic stress. The relevance of the role(s) played by enkephalin and dynorphin in adaptation to stress may be critical in the etiology and pathology of physiological or psychiatric disorders associated with repeated or prolonged stress, such as affective and anxiety disorders.
