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.

The role of enriched environment in neural development and repair. [PDF]
Front Cell Neurosci, 2022 In addition to genetic information, environmental factors play an important role in the structure and function of nervous system and the occurrence and development of some nervous system diseases. Enriched environment (EE) can not only promote normal neural development through enhancing neuroplasticity but also play a nerve repair role in restoring ...

Enriched environment-induced neuroplasticity in ischemic stroke and its underlying mechanisms [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2023 Stroke is a common cerebrovascular disease that can interrupt local blood flow in the brain, causing neuronal damage or even death, resulting in varying degrees of neurological dysfunction. Neuroplasticity is an important neurological function that helps

Enriched environment as a nonpharmacological neuroprotective strategy. [PDF]
Exp Biol Med (Maywood), 2023 The structure and functions of the central nervous system are influenced by environmental stimuli, which also play an important role in brain diseases. Enriched environment (EE) consists of producing modifications in the environment of standard laboratory animals to induce an improvement in their biological conditions.

An enriched environment ameliorates the reduction of parvalbumin-positive interneurons in the medial prefrontal cortex caused by maternal separation early in life [PDF]
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023 Early child maltreatment, such as child abuse and neglect, is well known to affect the development of social skills. However, the mechanisms by which such an adverse environment interrupts the development of social skills remain unelucidated. Identifying

A novel viewpoint in glaucoma therapeutics: enriched environment. [PDF]
Neural Regen Res, 2022 Glaucoma is one of the world's most frequent visual impairment causes and leads to selective damage to retinal ganglion cells and their axons. Despite glaucoma's most accepted risk factor is increased intraocular pressure (IOP), the mechanisms behind the disease have not been fully elucidated.

Impact of enriched environment on motor performance and learning in mice. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2023 AbstractNeuroscience heavily relies on animal welfare in laboratory rodents as it can significantly affect brain development, cognitive function and memory formation. Unfortunately, laboratory animals are often raised in artificial environments devoid of physical and social stimuli, potentially leading to biased outcomes in behavioural assays.

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

The systemic effects of the enriched environment on the conditioned fear reaction [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2023 In this review, a hypothesis is proposed to explain the beneficial effect of an enriched environment (EE) on the conditioned fear reaction (CFR) from the perspective of a functional system of behavioral control.

Enriched environment promotes post-stroke angiogenesis through astrocytic interleukin-17A [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2023 ObjectiveOur previous studies have revealed that the protective effect of an enriched environment (EE) may be linked with astrocyte proliferation and angiogenesis.
