[La...] Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 The full title of this Argentinian study is "Chronic stress in Lizards: Studies on the Behavior and Benzodiazepine Receptors in Liolaemus koslowskyi and Cnemidophorus tergolaevigatus". I'm not sure this study has any relevance for humans, but if you need some cocktail party topics, you could always read this abstract and chat with your pals about stress in lizards. P.S. I'd hate to see a lizard in benzodiazepine withdrawal. According to the study: "Our findings suggest a potential GABA/benzodiazepine role in the ability of lizards to cope with a repeated exposure to a stressful (e.g., predator) condition." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28198153 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
