Pinna G, Ponomareva O, Stalcup G, Rasmusson A
Neurosci Biobehav Rev . 2025 Mar; 172:106085. PMID: 40024353
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a disabling psychiatric disorder that arises after acute or chronic exposure to threatened death, serious injury, or sexual violence. The pathophysiology of PTSD is complex...

Pineles S, Ni P, Pandey S, Japuntich S, Cesare N, Shor R, et al.
Addict Behav . 2023 Sep; 148:107868. PMID: 37774527
Prepulse inhibition (PPI) is a measure of sensorimotor filtering thought to shield the processing of initial weaker auditory stimuli from interruption by a later startle response. Previous studies have shown...

Rasmusson A, Novikov O, Brown K, Pinna G, Pineles S
Curr Opin Endocr Metab Res . 2023 Mar; 25. PMID: 36909842
PTSD is associated with deficits in synthesis of progesterone metabolites such as allopregnanolone and pregnanolone that potently facilitate gamma-amino-butyric acid (GABA) effects at GABA receptors. These neurosteroids modulate neuronal firing...

Rasmusson A, Pineles S, Brown K, Pinna G
J Neuroendocrinol . 2021 Dec; 34(2):e13062. PMID: 34962690
Trauma-focused psychotherapies show general efficacy in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), although outcomes vary substantially among individuals with PTSD and many patients do not achieve clinically meaningful symptom improvement. Several factors...

Arditte Hall K, DeLane S, Anderson G, Lago T, Shor R, Wang W, et al.
Psychopharmacology (Berl) . 2021 Feb; 238(6):1541-1552. PMID: 33620549
Rationale: Aberrations in the stress response are associated with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptom development, maintenance, and severity. Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), the brain's primary inhibitory neurotransmitter, may play a key...

Nillni Y, Rasmusson A, Paul E, Pineles S
Curr Psychiatry Rep . 2021 Jan; 23(2):8. PMID: 33404887
Purpose Of Review: This paper reviews the recent literature on menstrual cycle phase effects on outcomes relevant to anxiety and PTSD, discusses potential neurobiological mechanisms underlying these effects, and highlights...

Scioli E, Smith B, Whitworth J, Spiro A, Esterman M, Dutra S, et al.
Health Psychol . 2020 Aug; 39(9):826-840. PMID: 32833484
This study utilizes the Science of Behavior Change (SOBC) experimental medicine approach to evaluate the effects of a 3-month, individually prescribed progressive exercise training program on neurobiological, cognitive and motivational...

Neurobiol Stress . 2020 Jun; 13:100225. PMID: 32490055
Several studies have demonstrated poor retention of extinction learning among individuals with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Gonadal hormone signaling in brain appears to influence the retention of extinction learning differently...

Liang J, Rasmusson A
Chronic Stress (Thousand Oaks) . 2020 May; 2:2470547018818555. PMID: 32440589
Allopregnanolone and pregnanolone-neurosteroids synthesized from progesterone in the brain, adrenal gland, ovary and testis-have been implicated in a range of neuropsychiatric conditions including seizure disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, major depression,...
