Neural Signatures of Social Memory Under Stress - This image captures a fascinating look into the developing brain of a 14-day-old mouse, highlighting two critical proteins. The red label marks neuronal IL-1R1, a receptor found in the dentate gyrus, a region crucial for memory formation, including social memory. This receptor plays a key role in how we process and remember social experiences. The green label shows d-FosB, a protein essential for synaptic plasticity‚ the brain's ability to adapt and strengthen connections. In this study, d-FosB expression was triggered by repeated maternal separation, mimicking early-life stress in a mouse model. By examining how these two proteins interact, we aim to understand how early life adversity can shape brain development and influence who we become as adults.
