Stress and excitatory synapses: From health to disease

Highlights • Stress can result in highly adaptive responses but is also an important risk factor for disease. • Acute stress rapidly enhances excitatory synaptic transmission and promotes learning and memory processes. • Chronic stress reduces excitatory synaptic transmission and learning and memory...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Stress can result in highly adaptive responses but is also an important risk factor for disease. • Acute stress rapidly enhances excitatory synaptic transmission and promotes learning and memory processes. • Chronic stress reduces excitatory synaptic transmission and learning and memory. • Early life experience has long-lasting effects on excitatory synaptic transmission and dendritic complexity.
