A study in the basolateral amygdala of rats in short-term enriched environment: selection of reference genes and quantification of TrkB and ERK mRNA with RT-qPCR
The brain is a highly plastic organ, liable to remodelling by several stimuli. Stress induces hypertrophy in the basolateral amygdala (BLA), culminating in increased risk to stress-related neuropsychiatric disorders. Environmental enrichment has been shown to confer resilience, affecting the brain i...
