Depression alters brain structuredoi:10.1016/S0262-4079(19)31948-7Jessica HamzelouThe New Scientist
244 participants revealed underlying neurobiological mechanisms involving lifestyle, brain structure, immunometabolic function, genetics and depression. Together, our findings suggest that adherence to a healthy lifestyle could aid in the prevention of depression....
Your mental health care provider will help develop a course of treatment that will get you back to the path of living and enjoying your life. See References Brain structure alterations in depression: Psychoradiological evidence Zhang, Fei-Fei et al. CNS neuroscience & therapeutics vol. 24,11 (...
Exercise has been proven to reshape the brain structure of depression patients, activate the function of related brain areas, promote behavioral adaptation changes, and maintain the integrity of hippocampal and white matter volume, thus improving the brain neuroprocessing and delaying cognitive degradation...
The midbrain, pons, and medulla oblongata have central roles in human health and disease, yet no large-scale neuroimaging study has focused on their structure and genetic underpinnings. Here, we discovered novel genetic loci associated with brainstem volumes and found genetic overlap with eight psych...
Previously, those connections were known to be implicated in the development of affective disorders like depression and anxiety, according to researchers. The researchers studied 108 healthy young adults who were asked to answer several questions involving their comfort with financial choices, facing over...

(Van Essen and Ugurbil2012). Despite the importance of these imaging modalities in characterizing brain pathologies and development, it is imperative to analyze the molecular structure to gain a better mechanistic understanding of how the brain works. However, studying the molecular mechanisms of the...
Effects of early stress on brain structure and function: Implications for understanding the relationship between child maltreatment and depression Child abuse is associated with markedly elevated rates of major depression (MDD) in child, adolescentt, and adult cohorts.
