The influence of crowding stress (CS) and its duration on the expression of selected glutamate receptors in the rat FC. Expression of the GluA1 subunit of the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor (A), GluN2B subunit of the n-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor (B), metabotropic receptor dimer GluR5/1a (C). (D) Representative immunoblots that illustrate GluA1, GluN2B, and mGluR5/1a expression levels in the FC. Data were calculated as percentages of controls and are expressed as means ± SEM (CON: N = 9; CS 3d: N = 5; CS 7d: N = 5; CS 14d: N = 5). *** p < 0.001; * p ≤ 0.05; ○ 1> p >0.05 vs. control (LSD test); ### p < 0.001; # p < 0.05 vs. SC 3d (LSD test); ^ p < 0.05 vs. CS 7d (LSD test).
