Cortical ensembles orchestrate social competition through hypothalamic outputs

Most social species self-organize into dominance hierarchies(1,2), which decreases aggression and conserves energy(3,4), but it is not clear how individuals know their social rank. We have only begun to learn how the brain represents social rank(5-9) and g ...

The glucocorticoid receptor in the nucleus accumbens plays a crucial role in social rank attainment in rodents

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Jocelin Grosse, Olivia Zanoletti, Fiona Hollis, Ioannis Zalachoras, Meltem Weger, Thomas Didier Larrieu, Alexandre Claude Gustave Bacq

Social hierarchy in social species is usually established through competitive encounters with conspecifics. It determines the access to limited resources and, thus, leads to reduced fights among individuals within a group. Despite the known importance of s ...

Astrocytic release of ATP through type 2 inositol 1,4,5‐trisphosphate receptor calcium signaling and social dominance behavior in mice

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Jocelin Grosse, Marie-Isabelle Guillot de Suduiraut, Fiona Hollis, Eva Ramos Fernandez

Brain mitochondrial function is critical for numerous neuronal processes. We recently identified a link between brain energy and social dominance, where higher levels of mitochondrial function resulted in increased social competitive ability. The underlyin ...

Metabolic signature in nucleus accumbens for anti-depressant-like effects of acetyl-L-carnitine

Rolf Gruetter, Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Jocelin Grosse, João Pedro de Matos Rodrigues, Antoine Timothée Cherix, Thomas Didier Larrieu

Emerging evidence suggests that hierarchical status provide vulnerability to develop stress-induced depression. Energy metabolic changes in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) were recently related to hierarchical status and vulnerability to develop depression-lik ...

Latency to Reward Predicts Social Dominance in Rats: A Causal Role for the Dopaminergic Mesolimbic System

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Simone Astori, Ioannis Zalachoras, Laura Lozano Montes, Sonia Abad Florensa

Reward signals encoded in the mesolimbic dopaminergic system guide approach/seeking behaviors to all varieties of life-supporting stimuli (rewards). Differences in dopamine (DA) levels have been found between dominant and submissive animals. However, it is ...

Neuropharmacology of the mesolimbic system and associated circuits on social hierarchies

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Michael van der Kooij, Sriparna Ghosal

Most socially living species are organized hierarchically, primarily based on individual differences in social dominance. Dominant individuals typically gain privileged access to important resources, such as food, mating partners and territories, whereas s ...

Increased brain glucocorticoid actions following social defeat in rats facilitates the long-term establishment of social subordination

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Jocelin Grosse, Olivia Zanoletti, Meltem Weger

Social rank is frequently established through aggressive encounters between new conspecifics. Despite increasing evidence suggesting that social rank is critical for the well-being of both humans and animals, knowledge about the factors influencing social ...

Hierarchical status predicts behavioral vulnerability and nucleus accumbens metabolic profile following chronic social defeat stress

Rolf Gruetter, Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Hongxia Lei, Antoine Timothée Cherix, João Pedro de Matos Rodrigues, Thomas Didier Larrieu, Maria Aranzazu Duque Moreno

Extensive data highlight the existence of major differences in individuals’ susceptibility to stress [1; 2; 3 ; 4]. While genetic factors [5 ; 6] and exposure to early life stress [7 ; 8] are key components for such neurobehavioral diversity, intriguing ob ...

Stoichiometric N:P flexibility and mycorrhizal symbiosis favour plant resistance against drought

Pierre Rémi Mariotte

Drought induces changes in the nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) cycle but most plant species have limited flexibility to take up nutrients under such variable or unbalanced N and P availability. Both the degree of flexibility in plant N:P ratio and of ro ...

Stress, glucocorticoid receptor and social behaviors

Peripuberty, comprising childhood and adolescence, constitutes an important time window in the brain development and maturation. Exposure to prolonged stress during this period has been shown to increase the risk for the development of psychopathologies la ...
