Out-of-balance electrical activity inside neurons of the brain's reward circuit is responsible for vulnerability to depression-like behaviors in mice, say scientists, who have experimentally reversed this vulnerbility. Instead of suppressing it, researchers funded by the National Institutes of Health boosted runaway neuronal activity even further, eventually triggering a compensatory self-stabilizing response.

Stress Susceptibility may be Reversed by Boosting Natural Resilience
Out-of-balance electrical activity inside neurons of the brain's reward circuit is responsible for vulnerability to depression-like behaviors in mice, say scientists, who have experimentally reversed this vulnerbility. Instead of suppressing it, researchers funded by the National Institutes of Health boosted runaway neuronal activity even further, eventually triggering a compensatory self-stabilizing response.
