IL-1β protein levels 24-hrs after the 5th social stress or control exposure. While there were no significant effects of stress on IL-1β 1-hr after the 5th exposure, 24-hrs later (A) social stress increased IL-1β protein levels selectively in the LC of short latency rats. (B) Alternatively, IL-1β in the DR of LL rats was significantly suppressed compared with controls. (C) There were no effects of social stress on plasma IL-1β levels. *p<0.05, Tukey’s post-hoc. Average defeat latencies for rats included in the 24-hr post-stress group were 173±18 for SL and 491±56 for LL and were significantly different (t(21)=7.1; p<0.0001).
