Effect of acute asenapine treatment on Fos expression in the forebrain structures under normal conditions and mild stress preconditioning in the rat

Highlights • Asenapine (ASE) is a novel atypical antipsychotic designated for treatment of schizophrenia. • ASE effect on Fos expression in striatum, septum, nucleus accumbens, and prefrontal cortex was studied. • ASE induced significant Fos expression almost in all the striatal structures analyzed....

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Asenapine (ASE) is a novel atypical antipsychotic designated for treatment of schizophrenia. • ASE effect on Fos expression in striatum, septum, nucleus accumbens, and prefrontal cortex was studied. • ASE induced significant Fos expression almost in all the striatal structures analyzed. • Chronic unpredictable variable mild stress lasting 21 days did not alter the impact of ASE.
