Stony Brook Researchers Advance OCD Therapy
A study by Stony Brook University has identified a neural pathway between the amygdala and dorsal striatum that may play a role in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Activated in mice, this pathway triggered OCD-like grooming behavior, which persisted even after stimulation stopped. Researchers found that inhibiting this connection reduced behaviors, suggesting potential targets for future, more precise treatments for OCD beyond current options like medication and deep brain stimulation.
