    Rupshi Mitra
    Department of Biology, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305, USA
    Stress 12:305-12. 2009
    ..Enhanced contextual modulation of fear memories in animals experiencing environmental enrichment while stressed could reflect an adaptive response. This could allow greater flexibility to optimize vigilance in differing spatial contexts...

    R Mitra
    Department of Biology, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305, USA
    Mol Psychiatry 14:847-55, 827. 2009
    ..SK2 overexpression also reduced dendritic arborization of the amygdala neurons. Hence, SK2 is a potential gene therapy candidate molecule that can be used against stress-related neuropsychiatric disorders such as anxiety...

    Rupshi Mitra
    Department of Biology, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305, USA
    Behav Brain Res 205:535-43. 2009
    ..These data suggest that dendritic hypotrophy in the BLA may be a resilience marker against lasting anxiogenic effects of predator stress...

    Department of Biology, Stanford University, Stanford, California 94305, USA
    Biol Psychiatry 66:686-90. 2009

    Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 107:14823-7. 2010
