The effect of life stress on depression is moderated by a repeat length variation in the transcriptional control region serotonin transporter gene, which renders carriers short variant vulnerable for depression. We investigated underlying neural mechanisms these epigenetic processes individuals with no history psychopathology using multimodal magnetic resonance-based imaging (functional, perfusion, and structural), genotyping, self-reported rumination. Based functional MRI perfusion data, we...
Abstract Previous studies on working memory (WM) function in adults with attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) suggested aberrant activation of the prefrontal cortex and cerebellum. Although it has been hypothesized that differences these regions most likely reflect frontocerebellar circuits, functional coupling brain networks during cognitive performance not investigated so far. In this study, magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) both univariate multivariate analytic techniques were...
The purpose of the present study was to assess retest reliability cortical activation detected by event-related functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) based on craniocerebral correlations. Isolated evoked in motor cortex a periodically performed finger-tapping task. During 44-channel fNIRS recording, 12 subjects 30 trials right and left index finger tapping two sessions. interval set 3 weeks. Simple correlations contrast t-values supplemented scatterplots, channel-wise intraclass...
Abstract In this study we investigated whether event‐related near‐infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is suitable to measure changes in brain activation of the occipital cortex modulated by emotional content visual stimuli. As found a previous pilot that only positive but not negative stimuli differ from neutral (with respect oxygenated haemoglobin), now measured EEG potentials and NIRS simultaneously during same session. Thereby, could evaluate subjects ( n = 16) processed as well similar way....
It has been shown that applying transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) influences declarative memory processes. This study investigates efficacy of tDCS on emotional consolidation, especially experimental fear conditioning. We applied an auditory fear-conditioning paradigm, in which two differently colored squares (blue and yellow) were presented as conditioned stimuli (CS) stimulus unconditioned (UCS). Sixty-nine participants randomly...
Abstract Several lines of evidence suggest that the amygdala and bed nucleus stria terminalis (BNST) are differentially involved in phasic sustained fear. Even though, results from neuroimaging studies support this distinction, a specific effect temporal dissociation with responses to onset versus during prolonged states threat anticipation has not been shown yet. To explore issue, we investigated brain activation 38 healthy participants by means functional magnetic resonance imaging....
