Exposure to acute stress induces brain interleukin-1β protein in the rat

…, T Deak, SM Owens, T Kohno, M Fleshner… - Journal of …, 1998 - Soc Neuroscience
Peripheral immune stimulation such as that provided by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been

Inverted‐U relationship between the level of peripheral corticosterone and the magnitude of hippocampal primed burst potentiation

DM Diamond, MC Bennett, M Fleshner… - …, 1992 - Wiley Online Library
Studies have shown that peripheral levels of corticosterone correlate with the magnitudes of
two well‐described physiological models of memory, long‐term potentiation (LTP) and …

Catecholamines mediate stress-induced increases in peripheral and central inflammatory cytokines

…, M Nickerson, BN Greenwood, M Fleshner - Neuroscience, 2005 - Elsevier
Proinflammatory cytokines act at receptors in the CNS to alter physiological and behavioral
responses. Exposure to stressors increases both peripheral and central proinflammatory …

DM Diamond, M Fleshner, N Ingersoll… - Behavioral …, 1996 - psycnet.apa.org
Stress blocks hippocampal primed-burst potentiation, a low threshold form of long-term
potentiation, thereby suggesting that stress should also impair hippocampal-dependent memory. …
