Abstract

Chronic stress yields adverse effects including debilitating depressive-like symptoms in susceptible populations. Neurophysiological data has previously defined a network involved in mediating resilient and susceptible states in response to chronic stress. This neuronal circuit arose from projections between the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and the amygdala (AMY) and its chemogenetic activation induced a rescued stress-resilient state both phenotypically and network-wide. Although this complex PFC-AMY circuit has been previously characterized, it remains unknown which network-specific cell types in the AMY with reciprocal projections with the PFC mediate this circuit.
