Corticoliberinergic mechanisms of the neostriatum in the neuroendocrine stress regulation

: Neostriatum and its dopaminergic mechanisms were shown to be involved in mediation of some adaptive effects of the CRH (corticotropin-releasing hormone), both behavioural and endocrine. The data obtained suggest that neostriatum contributes to a coping response by selecting an appropriate behavioural strategy in stressful situation.
