  • Title: Granule cell potentials in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus: coping behavior and stress ulcers in rats.
    Author: Henke PG.
    Journal: Behav Brain Res; 1990 Jan 01; 36(1-2):97-103. PubMed ID: 2154236.
    Abstract:
    Evoked population potentials of the granule cells in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus were increased in stress-resistant rats and decreased in stress-susceptible rats, as indexed by restraint-induced gastric ulcers. Inescapable, uncontrollable shock stimulation also suppressed granule cell population spikes and interfered with subsequent coping responses when escape was possible, i.e. the so-called helplessness effect. The data were interpreted to indicate that the hippocampus is part of a coping system in stressful situations.
