Transaction Costs, Order Placement Strategy, and Existence of the Bid-Ask Spread
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that transaction costs cause bid-ask spreads to be an equilibrium property of asset markets, and that with transaction costs, the probability of a limit order executing does not go to unity as the order is placed infinitesimally close to a counterpart market quote.
Behavioral control over shock blocks behavioral and neurochemical effects of later social defeat
TL;DR: Social defeat was chosen as the second stress experience and ES confers a very general protection to the impact of a subsequent stress experience to stressors that are quite different.

TL;DR: Results suggest for the first time that TLR4 activation is necessary but not sufficient to induce spinally mediated pain enhancement, and suggest thatTLR4-dependent pain phenomena may require contributions by multiple components of the TLR 4 receptor complex.
The role of IL-1β in stress-induced sensitization of proinflammatory cytokine and corticosterone responses
TL;DR: Elevations in central IL-1beta, whether stress-induced or exogenously administered, are sufficient for sensitizing central IL -1beta and CORT responses to subsequent immune challenge, suggesting other factors during the stress response can sensitize CORT response.
Learned Helplessness: All of us were Right (And Wrong): Inescapable Shock has Multiple Effects
TL;DR: This chapter explores the causes and explanations of this phenomenon, rather than all of its empirical characteristics, and discusses inactivity hypotheses and examines that inescapable shock exposure induces reduced activity in the presence of shock.
