Synaptic changes in the hippocampus of adolescent female rodents associated with resilience to anxiety and suppression of food restriction-evoked hyperactivity in an animal model for anorexia nervosa
The hippocampus exhibits growth spurts during adolescence. 4 days of food restriction during adolescence alters hippocampal dendritic arbors. 8 days of exercise during adolescence alters hippocampal dendritic arbors. Activity-based anorexia is accompanied by synaptic changes in the hippocampus. α4βδ-GABAARs in the hippocampus dampen food restriction-evoked hyperactivity.
