A new study reveals that astrocyte-derived GABA, not neuronal activity, plays a central role in PTSD by impairing the brain’s ability to extinguish traumatic memories.

Researchers discovered that PTSD may be driven by excess GABA from astrocytes, not neurons. This chemical imbalance disrupts ...

The new drug has already passed Phase 1 safety trials in humans, making it a "strong candidate" for future PTSD treatments.
