In contrast, both amygdalar Nr3c1 (F(1,28) = 17.878; P < 0.001) and Bdnf expression (F(1,28) = 13.798; P < 0.001) were attenuated by colitis (Fig. 5g,h) and Bdnf expression was increased by WAS (F(2,28) = 11.956; P < 0.001) 90 min, but not immediately after stress exposure. The gene discussed is NR3C1; the disease is colitis.
