摘要

To benefit from opportunities and cope with stress in the environment, animals must adapt their behavior to avoid danger and to maximize rewards. We are focusing on dissecting the neural circuits underlying stress and reward. Specifically, we found that corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH) neurons in paraventricular nucleus (PVN) organize adaptive stress response by complementarily integrating reward and stress signals. Also, we found that PVN and CeA CRH neurons are the command center of brain–spleen pathway in mice, through which behaviour can modulate adaptive immune responses. Together, these knowledges may provide guidance for developing novel treatment strategies for neuropsychiatric diseases, such as depression and anxiety.
