Linking reduced cell-specific inhibition to abnormal brain activity in chronic stress
https://braincanada.ca/fr/subventions-financées/linking-reduced-cell-specific-inhibition-to-abnormal-brain-activity-in-chronic-stressDepression is a leading cause of disability, with a large proportion of treatment-resistant patients. Recent studies have implicated reduced brain inhibition in human depression from a specific neuron type (SST), and new pharmacology boosting this reduced inhibition led to antidepressant and...
