Behavioral and physiological consequences of enrichment loss in rats

Highlights • Environmental enrichment removal induces depression-like behavior and weight gain in rats. • Enrichment removal blunts peak glucocorticoid response to acute stress. • Enrichment removal increases intake of chow, sucrose, and high fat diet. • Enrichment removal effects are prevented with...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Environmental enrichment removal induces depression-like behavior and weight gain in rats. • Enrichment removal blunts peak glucocorticoid response to acute stress. • Enrichment removal increases intake of chow, sucrose, and high fat diet. • Enrichment removal effects are prevented with antidepressant treatment. • Enrichment removal effects are not recapitulated by loss of other stimuli.
