• Effects of stress throughout the lifespan on the brain, behaviour and cognition (2009, background): “Contrary to the reduction in hippocampal and frontal volumes, chronic stress in adult rodents leads to dendritic hypertrophy in the basolateral amygdal”
• Stress and Memory: Behavioral Effects and Neurobiological Mechanisms (2007, background): “[140]), which fits with the role of the amygdala in emotional behavior and fear (Phelps and LeDoux [141]).”
• Prolonged institutional rearing is associated with atypically larger amygdala volume and difficulties in emotion regulation (2010, positive): “Poor emotion regulation is mediated by cellular growth in the amygdala in animal models of stress (Mitra et al., 2005; Vyas et al., 2002).”
• Brain on stress: How the social environment gets under the skin (2012, background): “The amygdala responds to glucocorticoids in the formation of emotionally charged memories (14), and acute stress causes a delayed formation of dendritic spines in basolateral amygdala neurons and an increase of anxiety after 10 d (57).”
• The Neurocircuitry of Fear, Stress, and Anxiety Disorders (2011, background): “Chronic stress decreases dendritic branching in the hippocampus (McEwen, 2001) and mPFC (Liston et al, 2006; Radley et al, 2004), but increases dendritic branching in the amygdala (Mitra et al, 2005; Vyas et al, 2006).”
• Sensitive periods of amygdala development: The role of maltreatment in preadolescence (2014, background): “, immobilization) and administration of stress hormones stimulate dendritic arborization and formation of new spines in the amygdala and increase volume (Mitra et al., 2005; Vyas et al., 2006).”
• Towards a glutamate hypothesis of depression (2011, background): “Interestingly, a single immobilization stress episode caused a gradual increase in spine density 10 days later, without any effect on dendritic arbors, in basolateral amygdala (Mitra et al., 2005).”
