Study Summary

The objective of the proposed translational study is to test a model, based upon basic science studies, exploring multisystem impairments in PTSD including endocannabinoid (eCB) and glucocorticoids in the modulation of fear memories by examining the cannabinoid type 1 (CB1) receptor in a PTSD fear circuit as well as glucocorticoid function. The investigators propose that impaired eCB signaling in PTSD resulting in the maladaptive neurobehavioral response to the stressor is associated with an upregulation of the CB1 receptors and insufficient glucocorticoid signaling.

Primary Outcome

To examine group differences in cerebral CB1 receptor expression in PTSD and controls within a fear circuit of cortical and subcortical brain regions that regulate stress-related behaviors using the CB1 radioligand \[11C\]OMAR and PET. Hypothesis: PTSD patients will show greater \[11C\]OMAR VT (i.e. CB1 binding) values than both control groups, trauma-exposed and non-trauma exposed control subjects who will not be different.

Interventions
