Ventral tegmental area glutamate neurons mediate the nonassociative consequences of traumatic stress

Dillon J. McGovern, Koy L. Ecton, David T. Huynh…·David H. Root

This study shows that uncontrollable stress increases VTA glutamate neuron activity and leads to social avoidance in mice, which can be prevented by reducing neuron activity.
