Doublecortin (DCX)-expressing cells are candidates that play key roles in the adult cortical remodeling. We have reported the number of DCX-expressing cells per unit area decreases after stress exposure or global brain ischemia (GBI) in the rat cingulate cortex. The aim of present study is to investigate whether the decrease in DCX-expressing cells is accelerated after GBI by preconditioning with acute stress exposure. Eighteen rats were divided into 3 groups; acute stress exposure before GBI (Group P), non-stress exposure before GBI (Group G), and controls (Group C). Acute stress or GBI was induced by forced swim paradigm or bilateral common carotid artery occlusion, respectively. DCX-expressing cells were investigated in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and retrosplenial cortex (RS). The number of DCX-expressing cells decreased after GBI with or without stress preconditioning in the ACC and RS (ANOVA followed by Tukey-type test, P < 0.001). Moreover the number of DCX-expressing cells in Group P decreased to a greater degree significantly than that in Group G (P < 0.05). Most of DCX-expressing cells were co-localized with GABAergic neuronal marker, parvalbumin. The present study indicates that cortical remodeling potential in the cingulate GABAergic neurons decreases after GBI, moreover, thus the ratio of decrease is accelerated by an acute stress preconditioning.

The aim of this study is to investigate an effect of the local thermal stimulation on restraint stress-induced c-Fos expression in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of rats. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were restrained for 30 min in a transparent plastic tube, while their forelimb pads touching (group L, n=6) or not (group S, n=6) to an aluminium block (10C°) cooled with a thermocontroller in an incubator (35C°). Two hours after the start of restraint, the rats were transcardially perfusion-fixed with a modified Zamboni's fixative. The hypothalamus was dissected out, paraffin-embedded, cut into serial coronal sections (5 μm-thick), and immunostained for c-Fos. The PVN regions were photographed and neurons having a c-Fos-stained nucleus were automatically counted in the whole PVN and in 4 different subnuclei using Image J. Data were statistically compared between both animal groups. The number of c-Fos-stained neurons in the whole PVN was significantly smaller (p<0.05) in group L than in group S. In particular, the numbers of c-Fos-stained neurons in the posterior magnocellular and the ventral part of the medial parvocellular subregions were smaller (p<0.05) in group L than in group S, showing significant attenuation of neuronal c-Fos expression. However, no significant difference was found in the dorsal parvocellular and the dorsal part of medial parvocellular subregions between groups L and S. These data suggest that a local thermal stimulation for forelimbs has an inhibitory effect on the restraint stress-induced activation of PVN neurons, with representing the subnucleus-related functional diversity.

Repeated or excessive exposure to stress cause emotional changes, such as depressive behavior and elevated anxiety. Several groups including ours reported that repeated stress elevates a marker for microglial activation and induces the morphological change of microglia. We also showed that COX-1, a prostaglandin synthase enriched in microglia, is required for social avoidance induced by repeated social defeat stress. Whereas these lines of evidence implicate microglia in emotional changes caused by repeated stress, the nature of microglial response to repeated stress and its molecular mechanism remain unknown. To address this issue, we have established a method of rapidly isolating microglia from the brains of stressed mice for gene expression profiling, and have found that repeated stress increases the mRNA levels of damage-associated molecules that activate the innate immune system, in microglia as well as other cell types in the brain. Consistent with a role for the innate immune signaling in repeated stress, mice deficient in MyD88, an adaptor molecule critical for the innate immune signaling, fail to show social avoidance induced by repeated stress. Furthermore, immunofluorescent staining showed that MyD88 is selectively expressed in microglia and endothelial cells in the brain. We are paving the way for identifying a role for the innate immune signaling in these cell types in emotional changes caused by repeated stress.

Maternal stress induces learning impairment and suppresses cell proliferation in the hippocampal dentate gyrus in pups. We previously reported that maternal chewing during prenatal stress rescues the stress-induced decreases in hippocampal neurogenesis and cognitive impairment in pups. Learning affects hippocampal brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) mRNA expression, and BDNF affects neurogenesis. Here we analyzed the expression levels of BDNF protein using Western blot analysis, neurogenesis, and learning ability in pups. Pregnant mice were exposed to restraint stress beginning on day 15 and continuing until delivery. Half of the dams were given a wooden stick to chew on during restraint stress. The pups were raised to adulthood and learning ability, neurogenesis, and BDNF expression were analyzed. Restraint stress during pregnancy inhibited cell proliferation and BDNF protein expression in the hippocampus, and impaired learning ability, but, maternal chewing improved the restraint stress-induced suppression of cell proliferation, BDNF protein expression, and learning ability. These findings suggest that maternal chewing ameliorates the maternal stress-induced suppression of BDNF in the hippocampus, which in turn reduces the cognitive impairment and decreased in hippocampal neurogenesis in the pups.

Our previous researches demonstrate that green odor (GO), a mixture of cis-3-hexenol and trans-2-hexenal, attenuates acute fear, anxiety and stress responses to psychological stressors; however, it is still unknown whether GO affects long-lasting stress associated with behavioral alterations. In the present study, we investigated the effects of GO and paroxetine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, on long-term fear, anxiety, sensorimotor gating and depressive-like responses in rats subjected to delay fear conditioning. Two weeks after delay fear conditioning with a tone stimulus, animals showed increased freezing response to conditioned stimulus. These animals also displayed anxiety behaviors in novel environment, enhanced prepulse inhibition of the acoustic startle response and increased depressive-like behaviors in the forced swim test. In contrast, rats administrated with paroxetine (1.0 mg/kg/day i.p.) during 2 weeks after fear conditioning exhibited attenuations of these stress-induced behavioral alterations. Similarly, conditioned animals treated by daily 0.03 % GO exposures (200 μl, 60 min/day) during 2 weeks showed alleviations of long-lasting conditioned fear response, anxiety in novel environment and enhanced acoustic prepulse inhibition, but not depressive-like responses in the forced swim test. These results suggest that repeated GO exposure might facilitate the extinction of long-term fear memory and reduce the accompanying anxiety and abnormal sensorimotor gating like chronic paroxetine treatment, except for depression-related behaviors.

Experience-dependent neural plasticity is crucial for the establishment of neural circuits and cognitive functions. Abnormal environment early in life such as neonatal chronic stress could cause various psychiatric disorders by the disruption of circuit formation. However, the mechanisms underlying how early long-lasting stress alters circuit organization remain poorly understood. Here, we found that neonatal chronic stress with social isolation phosphorylated and inactivated ADF/cofilin, the actin depolymerizing factor, via the stress glucocorticoid hormone signaling in the increase of immobilized fraction of actin. This led to the prevention of experience-driven synaptic AMPA receptor delivery in the developing rat barrel cortex. Thus, neonatal chronic stress inactivates ADF/cofilin, alters actin dynamics, and results in the blockade of experience-driven synaptic AMPA receptor delivery in the sensory cortex, leading to the malfunctioning in sensory processing which constitutes prominent symptoms in psychiatric disorders.

The body copes with every stress from the ambient by performing a stress response and maintains homeostasis. We examined a neural activity of thalamus, hypothalamus, pons and medulla oblongata by acute stress to investigate relationship of aging and chronic stress. Male ddY mice weighing 20-25 g were used and bred for 4-5 (young mice), 60 and 100 weeks (aged mice) at room temperature (24 ± 1°C) under a 12 h-light and dark cycle (lights on at 8:00 am) and allowed to eat and drink freely tap water. Acute stress indicates the condition of 4°C exposure for 1 hour, while Chronic stress indicates SART stress loading ,as follows. Mice were transferred between 24°C room's cage and 4°C room's cage hourly from 9:00 to 16:00 and housed in a cage at 4°C from l6:00 to 09:00 the following morning. This procedure was repeated for 8 days up to 11:30 on the day of the each experiment. Neural activity was counted the number of c-Fos immuno-reactive (c-Fos-IR) cells. In young and aged mice, the number of c-Fos-ir cells in paraventricular thalamic nucleus, paraventricular hypothalamic nucleus (PVN), dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus, lateral parabrachial nucleus and raphe pallidus nucleus (RPa) were increased by acute stress. A number of c-Fos-ir cells in PVN and RPa of 100 weeks aged mice were significantly decreased by acute stress. However, that in 5 areas of SART-stressed mice was not changed by acute stress. Repeating three times of acute stress, the increase of c-Fos-ir cells's number was gradually decreased in young mice, but this change was not found in aged mice. These results suggest that aged and chronic stressed mice decrease the stress responses through the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis that started from PVN by acute stress. In aging, it may be hard to occur a habituation for stress caused by repeated acute stress.
