Dentate nNOS accounts for stress-induced 5-HT1A receptor deficiency: Implication in anxiety behaviors.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings uncovered an important role of nNOS-5-HT1A receptor pathway in the DG of the hippocampus in chronic stress-induced anxiety. Accordingly, we developed a "dentate nNOS-5-HT1A receptor closed-loop" theory (stress-glucocorticoids-nNOS-Nitric oxide-ONOO•-5-HT1A receptor -nNOS) of stress-related anxiety.
