Stress resilience versus stress recovery
Two related but distinct concepts apply here. Stress resilience refers to the ability to maintain function despite stress exposure. Stress recovery refers to the ability to restore function after stress-induced damage. TREK-1 knockout mice display stress resil

- Two related but distinct concepts apply here. Stress resilience refers to the ability to maintain function despite stress exposure. Stress recovery refers to the ability to restore function after stress-induced damage.
- TREK-1 knockout mice display stress resilience. They do not develop depression-like behavior when exposed to stress paradigms that depress normal mice. The absence of the channel protects against stress effects.
- PE-22-28 treatment may promote stress recovery. By blocking TREK-1 in animals already showing stress-induced changes, it may restore normal function and reverse accumulated damage. The neurogenic effects support this interpretation.
- Both applications are relevant. Preventing stress damage is valuable. Reversing existing damage is also valuable. Different research protocols test different aspects of PE-22-28 activity in these related but distinct domains.
