A graphical summary on the hemisphere-specific roles of CTGF. A graphical summary of the hemisphere-specific roles of CTGF in stress adaptation. Non-stressed mice show similar CTGF levels in both mPFC hemispheres. When stressed, mice become susceptible or resilient depending on their CTGF level in each hemisphere: In susceptible mice, CTGF increases only in the right mPFC, while resilient mice show a corresponding increase of CTGF in the left mPFC. Mice with overexpression of CTGF in the right mPFC exhibit an enhanced perception of stress, while mice with overexpression of CTGF in the left mPFC exhibit an increase of the resilient phenotype
