NEUROPHYSIOLOGY 2021: Changes in the GABAergic signalling in the prefrontal cortex of mice model of posttramautic stress disorder- Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University/School of Life Sciences, Russia

Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a chronic

mental state that possibly emerges after life or body

integrity threatening events. On the neuronal level, the

deterioration of hippocampus, medial prefrontal and

medial temporal structures, amygdaloid complex and

anterior cingulate cortices have been reported (Brewin

2001, Elbert & Schauer, Yamasue, Corbo, Kolassa & Elbert 2007, Kasai, Eckhart. Regions of the brain involved in episodic

memory and emotional processing, such as parietal and

lateral prefrontal cortices and posterior midline structures,

have been emphasized as damaged, in studies concerning

PTSD performed by functional magnetic resonance

Imaging.
