Activation of EphrinB2/EphB2 signaling in the spine cord alters glia-neuron interactions in mice with visceral hyperalgesia following maternal separation [PDF]
BackgroundSress early in life has been linked to visceral hyperalgesia and associated functional gastrointestinal disorders. In a mouse model of visceral hyperalgesia, we investigated whether the EphB2 receptor and its EphrinB2 ligand in spinal cord ...

Early Life Stress Increases Metabolic Risk, HPA Axis Reactivity, and Depressive-Like Behavior When Combined with Postweaning Social Isolation in Rats. [PDF]
Early-life stress is associated with depression and metabolic abnormalities that increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Such associations could be due to increased glucocorticoid levels.

Epigenetic upregulation of corticotrophin-releasing hormone mediates postnatal maternal separation-induced memory deficiency. [PDF]
Accumulating evidences demonstrated that early postnatal maternal separation induced remarkable social and memory defects in the adult rodents. Early-life stress induced long-lasting functional adaptation of neuroendocrine hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal ...

Examining the Factorial Structure of the Maternal Separation Anxiety Scale in a Portuguese Sample
The increase in women’s labor market participation emphasizes the importance of understanding maternal separation anxiety, that is, the unpleasant maternal emotional state, due to the actual or anticipated short-term separation from the child. Drawing on

Behavioral responses to cow and calf separation: separation at 1 and 100 days after birth [PDF]
Objective The aim was to compare the behavioral response to full separation of cows and calves maintained together for 100 days or 24 h. Methods Twelve Holstein-Friesian cow-calf pairs were enrolled into either treatment or industry groups (n = 6 cow ...

Maternal separation in rats induces neurobiological and behavioral changes on the maternal side [PDF]
AbstractThe time after parturition is a sensitive period for mothers where they are prone to develop psychopathological symptoms. Studies investigating dams after separation from their pups (maternal separation, MS) showed that MS induces alterations similar to postpartum depression.

Biochemical and clinical diagnostic aspects of circulating nucleic acids [PDF]
We investigated the size distribution of fetal DNA using a combination of agorose gel electrophoresis, Southern blot and real time PCR assay. Our results showed plasma DNA presents apoptotic characteristics and the cell free fetal DNA is generally ...
