Universidade de São Paulo (USP). Instituto de Ciências Biomédicas (ICB) (Institutional affiliation from the last research proposal)
Birthplace: Brazil

Bachelor of Pharmacy-Biochemistry at the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences of the University of São Paulo. During his undergraduate studies, he developed scientific work at the department of Pharmacology at the Institute of Biomedical Sciences of the University of São Paulo under the Dr. Leonardo Santana Novaes supervision and Dr. Carolina Demarchi Munhoz co-supervision. Current, Vitor Jliano is a Ph.D. student at the graduate program in pharmacology at the department of pharmacology at ICB-USP with the aim of investigating the delayed acute stress effects on neuroendocrine regulation and learning of emotional memories and the development of anxiety-like and depressive-like behavior at cellular and molecular level. Completed part of his Ph.D. at the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at Texas AM University under the Dr.Stephen Maren supervision, in which used sophisticated techniques to investigate the regulation and integration of neural circuits related to fear memory.

Abstract
Stress is a crucial risk factor for the emergence of psychiatric disorders, such as Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The BLA and the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC; infralimbic and prelimbic subdivisions, IL-mPFC and PL-mPFC, respectively) are related to the expression of fear and fear extinction process. Locus Coeruleus (LC)BLA neuronal projections (characterized by the abundant r…

Abstract
The persistence of anxiety and the deficit in the extinction of fear memory are both phenomena related to the symptoms of disorders associated with stress, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Recently, we have shown that acute restraint stress (2h) in rats induces both late anxiety-like behavior (observed 10 days after stress) and fear extinction impairment. In addition to th…

Abstract
Stress constitutes a significant risk factor for psychiatric disorder development, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Some of PTSD's characteristic symptoms are impaired fear extinction and avoidance. The neurobiological mechanisms governing the fear extinction deficit and avoidance are extensively studied in rodent models through Pavlovian and instrumental conditioning. The m…
