Corticotropin-releasing factor neurotransmission in the insular cortex regulates anxiogenic-like behavior to acute restraint stress: A site-specific study in rats
{{output}}
The insular cortex (IC) plays a key role in anxiety responses to stress, with functional differences along its rostrocaudal axis, but the underlying neurochemical mechanisms remain unclear. Although corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) is present in the IC, it... ...
