Based on the hippocampus disconnection hypothesis in Alzheimer disease (AD), which postulates that uncoupling from cortical inputs contributes to disinhibition-like changes activity, we suggested patients with AD, more intrinsic functional connectivity between and precuneus is decreased, higher hippocampal glucose metabolism will be.Forty mild AD dementia, 21 cognitive impairment, 26 healthy controls underwent simultaneous PET/MRI measurements an integrated PET/MR scanner....
Cognitive emotion regulation (CER) enables humans to flexibly modulate their emotions. While local theories of CER neurobiology suggest interactions between specialized brain circuits underlying CER, e.g., in subparts amygdala and medial prefrontal cortices (mPFC), global hypothesize interaction increases among larger functional modules comprising circuits. We tested the hypothesis using graph-based whole-brain network analysis MRI data during aversive emotional processing with without CER....
Abstract The reduction of aversive emotions by a conspecific’s presence—called social buffering—is universal phenomenon in the mammalian world and powerful form human emotion regulation. Animal studies on neural pathways underlying buffering typically examined physiological reactions or regional brain activations. However, direct links between emotional stimuli, distinct processes behavioural outcomes are still missing. Using data 27 female participants, current study delineated large-scale...
Threat processing, enabled by threat circuits, is supported a remarkably conserved neural architecture across mammals. Threatening stimuli relevant for most species include the of being attacked predator or an aggressive conspecific and pain. Extensive studies in rodents have associated threats pain, attack with distinct circuits subregions amygdala, hypothalamus periaqueductal gray. Bearing mind considerable conservation both anatomy these regions defensive behaviors mammalian species, we...
Background Early regulatory problems (RPs), i.e., with crying, sleeping, and/or feeding during the first years, increase risk for avoidant personality traits in adulthood, associated social withdrawal and anxiety. Even more, RPs are linked functional alterations adult default mode salience networks, comprising brain's allostatic‐interoceptive system (AIS) playing a role interactions. We investigated whether assessed infancy difficulties peer relationships mediated by of AIS. Methods As part...
Introduction Social reappraisal, during which one person deliberately tries to regulate another’s emotions, is a powerful cognitive form of social emotion regulation, crucial for both daily life and psychotherapy. The neural underpinnings reappraisal include activity in the default mode network (DMN), but it unclear how processes influence DMN thereby functioning. We tested whether mere presence supportive regulator had an effect on rest, this was linked with reappraisal-related activations...
