Heart rate variability measures indicating sex differences in autonomic regulation during anxiety-like behavior in rats
Together, these are congruent with human findings suggesting women engage PNS more, and men SNS more. Our previous behavior-only work also observed female differences from males during initial movement and food intake. Thus, high basal SNS in females reduced behavior early in NSF, while subsequent reduced SNS allowed greater food intake. In males, lower SNS increased engagement with arena center, but greater SNS predicted higher consumption. Our …
The Influence of Environmental Enrichment on Cardiovascular and Behavioral Responses to Social Stress
OBJECTIVE: Stress is linked to negative cardiovascular consequences and increases in depressive behaviors. Environmental enrichment (EE) involves exposure to novel items that provide physical and cognitive stimulation. EE has behavioral, cognitive, and neurobiological effects that may improve stress responses in humans and animal models. This study investigated the potential protective effects of EE on behavior and cardiovascular function in fema…
Loneliness
In 1978, when the Task Panel report to the U.S. President’s Commission on Mental Health emphasized the importance of improving health care and easing the pain of those suffering from emotional distress syndromes including loneliness, few anticipated that this issue would still need to be addressed 40 years later. In 2011, a meta-analysis on the efficacy of treatments to reduce loneliness identified a need for well-controlled randomized clinical t…
The Effects of Environmental Enrichment on Depressive and Anxiety-Relevant Behaviors in Socially Isolated Prairie Voles
OBJECTIVES: Social isolation is associated with depression, anxiety, and negative health outcomes. Environmental enrichment, including environmental and cognitive stimulation with inanimate objects and opportunities for physical exercise, may be an effective strategy to include in treatment paradigms for affective disorders as a function of social isolation. In a rodent model-the socially monogamous prairie vole-we investigated the hypothesis tha…
The Integration of Depressive Behaviors and Cardiac Dysfunction During an Operational Measure of Depression
OBJECTIVE: There is a bidirectional association between depression and cardiovascular disease. The neurobiological mechanisms underlying this association may involve an inability to cope with disrupted social bonds. This study investigated in an animal model the integration of depressive behaviors and cardiac dysfunction after a disrupted social bond and during an operational measure of depression, relative to the protective effects of intact soc…
Hour Autonomic Dysfunction and Depressive Behaviors in an Animal Model of Social Isolation
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the hypothesis that long-term social isolation in an animal model would produce depression-relevant behaviors and disruptions in the 24-hour autonomic and activity parameters, and to further demonstrate the utility and validity of an animal model for the study of social environment, behavior, and autonomic function. Converging evidence from both experimental and epidemiological studies indicates that there is a bidirecti…
Evaluation of Baroreceptor Reflex Function in the Chronic Mild Stress Rodent Model of Depression
Objective: There is a bidirectional relationship between mood disorders (e.g., depression) and altered cardiovascular regulation (e.g., heart disease); however, the precise causal and/or common mechanisms underlying this association are unclear. In previous studies, we have noted indications of altered sympathetic drive to the heart in rats that exhibit anhedonia, an operational sign of depression induced by subjecting the animals to a series of …
Depression-Like Behavior and Stressor-Induced Neuroendocrine Activation in Female Prairie Voles Exposed to Chronic Social Isolation
OBJECTIVE: To assess whether the responses of prairie voles to social stressors play a mechanistic role in the behavioral and physiological changes associated with affective disorders such as depression, as suggested in previous studies. Prairie voles (Microtus ochrogaster) are socially monogamous rodents that share features of social behavior with humans; therefore, they may serve as useful models for examining social behavioral regulations and …
