Effect of gonadal status on hippocampal CB1 receptor level in control males and males subjected to three weeks unpredictable stress. (A) There was a significant reduction in the level of CB1 protein detected in whole hippocampus by western blot in both gonadally intact males (n = 3) and gonadectomized males (n = 3) that underwent the stress paradigm (two-way ANOVA; *p = 0.02, data represent the mean ± S.E.M.). There was also no effect of gonadal status in the unstressed males (p > 0.20; n = 4 gndx, n = 3 sham). (B) Stressed animals (n = 6) exhibit a significant reduction in sucrose preference compared to control animals (n = 6). Asterisks indicate p < 0.05; gdnx and sham animals were pooled for this analysis.
