Mapping in mice the brain regions involved in the anxiolytic-like properties of α-casozepine, a tryptic peptide derived from bovine αs1-casein
α-Casozepine, a bioactive peptide from milk casein, displays an anxiolytic-like activity in many species. Since its mode of action is still not elucidated, a study was conducted in Swiss mice to investigate c-Fos expression, a marker of neuronal activity, in different brain areas. After an intraperi...
