The effect of stress on the number of perisomatic inhibitory neurons in the dorsal hippocampus. The two major subpopulations of perisomatic inhibitory neurons were quantified: (A) parvalbumin+ and (B) cholecystokinin+ neurons. Note that stress significantly reduced the number of PV+ neuron numbers in all hippocampal subareas, while CCK+ neurons were not affected by stress. Statistical analysis: two‐tailed unpaired t‐test. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, versus the Control group. [Color figure can be viewed at wileyonlinelibrary.com]
