Leptin suppresses semi-starvation induced hyperactivity in rats: implications for anorexia nervosa.

abstract：:Hyperactivation of the amygdala following chronic stress is believed to be one of the primary mechanisms underlying the increased propensity for anxiety-like behaviors and pathological states; however, the mechanisms by which chronic stress modulates amygdalar function are not well characterized. The aim of the curren...
