The current study evaluates the lasting effects of two types of stress on the corpus callosum (CC). Forty-two male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups: Control Group (CG), Physical Stress (FS, immobilization) and Psychological Stress (PS, exposure to predators). Stress procedures occurred for three consecutive days at the juvenile stage (P25-P27) and analyzed at the adult age (P74); brains were retrieved and processed by Klüver-Barrera technique and sections were analyzed by morphometry. Results showed that there were no changes in the general aspects such as animal weight, and in the histological aspects such as CC thickness and quantity of the region´s glia nuclei. Current research suggests that the lasting effects of both models of juvenile stress of short frequency (3 days) and intensity (90 minutes/FS and 20 minutes/PS) were neither detrimental nor protective, featuring a positive adaptation.Downloads
