Figure 1. Early life FGF2 is protective of social stress in both bHRs and bLRs.

Figure 1

FGF2 was administered (20ng/g, s.c. in 50 μl 0.1M PBS with 0.1% BSA) the day after birth. The animals were tested for social interaction in adulthood following 10 days of repeated social defeat stress. FGF2 increased time in the interaction zone in both bHRs and bLRs compared to vehicle-injected controls. *p < 0.05. This study followed the National Institutes of Health guide for the care and use of laboratory animals.
