The hippocampus is a functionally complex brain area that plays a role in behaviors as PS 1145 chemical information diverse as spatial navigation and emotion. Not surprisingly then, it is also structurally complex and there is mounting evidence that distinct subregions along it’s longitudinal axis are subservient to different behaviors. The dorsal (septal) component has been linked to spatial navigation [1?], whereas the ventral (temporal) portion has been associated with emotional responses to arousing stimuli [4,5]. The hippocampus is also particularly sensitive to stress [6], but it appears that the two subregions respond differentially to stressful experiences. For example, acute stressors decrease long term MedChemExpress 14636-12-5 potentiation (LTP) in the dorsal hippocampus, but selectively increase monoamine levels [7] and long-term potentiation in the ventral subregion [8]. Chronic stressors also elicit subregionspecific responses. We have previously shown that adaptive plasticity, such as expression of neuropeptide Y (NPY) and DFosB, were highest in the dorsal subregion following chronic unpredictable stress (CUS), whereas adverse events, including decreased survival of hippocampal progenitor cells, were most severe in theventral subregion [9]. These data suggest that the hippocampus plays a dual role in the response to stress, with the dorsal portion undergoing adaptive plasticity, perhaps to facilitate escape or avoidance of the stressor, and the ventral portion involved in the affective facets of the experience [9]. We reasoned, therefore, that if chronic stress selectively induces adaptive neuroplastic responses in the dorsal hippocampus, spatial navigation would be enhanced by CUS. Accordingly, in the present study, we determined whether CUS enhanced spatial performance in the radial arm water maze (RAWM). The RAWM is a spatial navigation task that is stressful to laboratory rodents because it involves swimming [10]. It is therefore a suitable means by which to place demands on both hippocampal subregions simultaneously. Spatial learning has previously been associated with increased neurotrophin expression and synaptic remodeling in the hippocampus [11], but whether this varies by subregion has not been investigated. In the present study, we assessed subregion-specific changes in the expression of proteins associated with plasticity, including BDNF, its immature isoform, proBDNF, and postsynaptic density-95 (PSD-95), following a one-day learni.Nique ID’s in Blue indicate `symptomatic infected’ individuals.
