Medial prefrontal area reductions, altered expressions of cholecystokinin, parvalbumin, and activating transcription factor 4 in the corticolimbic system, and altered emotional behavior in a progressive rat model of type 2 diabetes.

Metabolic disorders are associated with a higher risk of psychiatric disorders. We previously reported that 20-week-old Otsuka Long-Evans Tokushima fatty (OLETF) rats, a model of progressive type 2 diabetes, showed increased anxiety-like behavior and regional area reductions and increased cholecysto...
