Psychiatry related information on Social Isolation

 

High impact information on Social Isolation

  • These data suggest that a switch (a decrease in alpha1/alpha2 and gamma2 and an increase in alpha4 and alpha5 subunits) in the composition of the heteropentameric GABA(A)-R subunit assembly without a change in total GABA(A)-R number occurs during social isolation [4].
  • Infant Oxtr(-/-) males emitted fewer ultrasonic vocalizations than wild-type littermates in response to social isolation [9].
  • Fluoxetine (FLX) and norfluoxetine (NFLX) stereospecifically reverse the effect of social isolation on the PTB-induced loss of righting reflex and on the decrease of telencephalic Allo content [10].
  • Protracted social isolation in mice may provide a model to investigate whether 5alpha-DHP by a genomic action, and ALLO by a nongenomic mechanism down-regulate the action of drugs acting as agonists, partial agonists, or positive allosteric modulators of the benzodiazepine recognition sites expressed by GABA(A) receptors [11].
  • Brain 5alpha-dihydroprogesterone and allopregnanolone synthesis in a mouse model of protracted social isolation [11].

Associations of Social Isolation with chemical compounds

  • These results suggest that mild chronic stress, such as that induced by social isolation, enhances the steroidogenic effect of ethanol, a drug abused by humans under stress or affected by neuropsychiatric disorders [25].
  • The data are discussed with respect to the involvement of ventral striatal DA mechanisms in the expression of PPI and LI, differences in the impact of social isolation in young and adult animals, and the utility of social isolation model as a nonlesion, nonpharmacologic means of perturbing ventral striatal DA function [26].
  • Social isolation also induced hyper-responsiveness of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, as was apparent after reduction of GABA-mediated inhibitory tone by isoniazid administration [25].
  • The effects of social isolation on behavior, neuroactive steroid concentrations, and GABA(A) receptor function were investigated in rats [27].
  • Effects of social isolation on pentobarbital activity in mice: relationship to racemate levels and enantiomer levels in brain [28].
 

Gene context of Social Isolation

  • Both Mecp2 null male and heterozygous female mice exhibited dramatic increases in ultrasonic vocalizations in response to social isolation; these differences were evident as early as postnatal day 5 [29].
  • The above data suggest that the social isolation stress augmented the tumor-induced angiogenesis probably by up-regulating the angiogenesis-related factors, including TNF-alpha, VEGF and HGF, and consequently mediating the functions of endothelial cells such as migration, invasion, and tube-like formation [30].
  • In this study, we have investigated whether a prolonged period of partial social isolation can modify central brain-derived neurotrophic (BDNF) concentrations [6].
  • Social isolation induces preference for odours of oestrous females in sexually naive male staggerer mutant mice [31].
  • Autoradiographic analyses of 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors after social isolation in mice [32].
