Corticosterone and TBI

Easing the stress of trauma 12/01/08. Researchers from both Tel Aviv University and Ben Gurion University, found in an animal model that a high dose of corticosterone, when given immediately after the stress event, reduces the effect of trauma in mice. They believe that corticosterone may dampen an animal’s ability to “remember” the initial trauma time and time again. American Friends of Tel Aviv University via Eurekalert!
