💨 Abstract

Neuroscientists from TIFR-Mumbai, in collaboration with international researchers, have identified the neuron type in the brain responsible for modulating anxiety. They used synthetic psychedelic DOI to identify the neural circuits involved in anxiety and found that only serotonin receptors in the ventral hippocampal region directly affected anxiety response in the mice, decreasing it.
