Enriched environment influences hormonal status and hippocampal brain derived neurotrophic factor in a sex dependent manner

Abstract The present study is aimed at testing the hypothesis that an enriched environment (EE) induces sex-dependent changes in stress hormone release and in markers of increased brain plasticity. The focus was on hypothalamic – pituitary – adrenocortical (HPA) axis activity, plasma levels of stres...
