CHRONIC SENSORY CONTACT WITH SUBORDINATED CONSPECIFICS PROMOTES SPLENIC GLUCOCORTICOID RESISTANCE IN EXPERIMENTALLY WOUNDED C57BL/6N MALE MICE

Chronic sensory contact with subordinated conspecifics promotes splenic glucocorticoid resistance in experimentally wounded C57BL/6N male mice

Abstract Chronic psychosocial stress induced by the chronic subordinate colony housing (CSC, 19 Days) paradigm promotes functional splenic in vitro glucocorticoid (GC) resistance, but only if associated with significant bite wounding or prior abdominal transmitter implantation.Moreover, sensory contact to social defeat of conspecifics represents a
