Supportive enriched environment improves recovery from persistent motor and cognitive impairments after severe traumatic brain injury [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral NeuroscienceObjectiveSevere traumatic brain injury (sTBI) causes permanent disability in adults worldwide. While enriched environments (EE) have been shown to improve recovery in the early post-TBI period, their efficacy during the chronic phase of sTBI remains ...

Shaping social behavior in an enriched environment [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022 Access to vital needs shapes social orders. In rats, social systems tend to maintain a certain stability, but alterations in the physical environment can change inter-individual relations, which consequently can alter social orders.

Perioperative enriched environment attenuates postoperative cognitive dysfunction by upregulating microglia TREM2 via PI3K/Akt pathway in mouse model of ischemic stroke [PDF]
Frontiers in NeurosciencePostoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a prevalent complication that significantly affects the quality of life. Notably, patients who have experienced ischemic stroke are at an increased risk of developing POCD. Exploring the underlying mechanisms

Enriched Environment Induces Sex-Specific Changes in the Adult Neurogenesis, Cytokine and miRNA Expression in Rat Hippocampus [PDF]
Biomedicines, 2023 An enriched environment stimulates adult hippocampal plasticity, but the exact cellular and molecular mechanisms are complex, and thus a matter of debate. We studied the behavior and hippocampal neurogenesis in adult male and female Wistar rats that were

Prolonged Environmental Enrichment Promotes Developmental Myelination
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Postnatal neurodevelopment is profoundly influenced by environmental experiences. Environmental enrichment is a commonly used experimental paradigm that has uncovered numerous examples of experience-dependent plasticity in health and disease.
