How the brain interacts.....

Researchers at Duke University are studying how the brain structures interact.  They are finding the brain structures that interact in a pattern can indicate depression.  The mice were put into an environment that was stressful, with a bigger more aggressive mouse.  They were left in this environment for 10 days.  The mice started exhibiting the same kind of symptoms that a human does, anxiety, social avoidance, and difficulty sleeping.  One of the researchers measured the brain in 7 different regions, including the prefrontal cortex, amygdala and the hippocampus.  They found that the less resilient mice exhibited different patterns both before and after a stressful event.  They also found that some of the mice where more resilient to the stressors.  Many scientists believe that depression and other psychological problems are driven by changes at the brain network level.  Many people are working in an environment that is stressful and unsupported.  This can create damage to the different brain structures, the longer standing the worse the condition. Depression can become a bigger problem.
