Description

SummaryHere, we present a protocol to study social transmission of stress in group-housed mice using restraint stress. We describe steps for exposing mice to restrained conspecifics separated by an acrylic divider to induce indirect stress responses. We detail procedures for acute and chronic paradigms, followed by behavioral, physiological, and immunological assessments in both restrained and bystander mice.
