Prenatal Stress Up-Regulated Hippocampal Glucocorticoid Receptor Expression in Female Adult Rat Offspring
SUMMARY: Accumulating evidence from preclinical and clinical studies indicates prenatal exposure to stress or excess glucocorticoids can affect offspring brain. Glucocorticoid receptor (GR) is an important target of glucocorticoid. Therefore the aim of the present study was to investigate the expres...
