The effects of maternal separation on behaviours under social-housing environments in adult male C57BL/6 mice

Abstract Adverse experience in early life can affect the formation of neuronal circuits during postnatal development and exert long-lasting influences on neural functions that can lead to the development of a variety of psychiatric disorders including depression, anxiety disorders, and post-traumati...
