Effect of uncontrollable tail shock stress on levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)1A messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN). Adult, male F344 rats (n = 8 per group) were either left undisturbed in their home cages (no stress) or were exposed to uncontrollable tail shock and were killed immediately (0), 1, 3, 24, or 72 h after stress. In situ hybridization was used to visualize levels of 5-HT1A mRNA in DRN slices. Data represent means ± SEM. *P < 0.05 relative to no-stress, 0-, 1-, and 3-h groups.
