Site-specific DNA methylation of the Bdnf gene in the hippocampus of rats exposed to psychosocial stress. Rats were stressed by acute exposure to a cat followed by unstable housing. DNA methylation was increased in (A) the dorsal dentate gyrus and (B) dorsal CA1, but not in (C) the ventral dentate gyrus and (D) ventral CA1 (Roth et al., 2011).
