Very happy to share our new paper in Biological Psychiatry, showing that Urolithin A reverses high anxiety by repairing mitochondrial function in the nucleus accumbens.

Big kudos to first co-authors David Mallet & Doğukan Ülgen, our amazing team, and collaborators!

🚨 NEW PAPER 🚨
Thrilled to share our latest work in "The Neurobiology of Stress" where we highlight the intricate roles of neuropeptides and neurosteroids in psychiatric disorders, & how new technologies can answer old questions about these important signallers. sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Expanding our understanding of (mal)adapted stress physiology in psychiatric disorders: achieving single-cell characterisation of steroids and neuropeptides
Steroid hormones and neurosteroids (collectively neuroactive steroids), alongside neuropeptides, are key modulators of the central nervous system. The…

New paper: We show that especially female mice benefit from moderate early life adversity under stressful situations in adulthood. This pro-resilient effect requires the psychiatric risk factor FKBP51, which turns out to be also required for adaptive stress responses. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
FKBP51 in glutamatergic forebrain neurons promotes early life stress inoculation in female mice - Nature Communications
Early life stress can induce lasting changes in brain function and behavior. Here, authors show that glutamatergic FKBP51 specifically in females mediates adaptive stress effects on anxiety and cognit...
