In addition, raw values of the effective connectivity from the mPFC to the bilateral amygdala were used to predict social deficits in ASD. Our findings indicate the impaired mPFC鈥揳mygdala pathway and its association with social deficits in children with ASD and provide a new perspective into ...
The current study aimed to investigate the structural and functional connectivity of the subregions of the amygdala in children with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) only or comorbid with Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD).#A total of 354 children with ADHD-only, 161 children with ...
It inhibits the prefrontal cortex, which is necessary for impulse control and executive function, a critical area for learning. And on MRI scans, we see measurable differences in the amygdala, the brain's fear response center. 早年遭受的不幸还会抑制大脑的前额叶皮质(Prefrontal cortex), 而前额皮质...
The amygdala is enlarged in children but not adolescents with autism; the hippocampus is enlarged at all ages. J Neurosci. 2004;24(28):6392–401. Article CAS PubMed Google Scholar Hazlett HC et al. Magnetic resonance imaging and head circumference study of brain size in autism: birth ...

the amygdala is not solely activated by fear; it is also known to be responsive to other social stimuli. Over the course of this study Perez-Edgar will observe patterns of social behavior, both by physically watching children interacting and also by collecting EEG (electroencephalogram) and fMRI...
The primate amygdala contains a large population of immature neurons in the paralaminar nuclei (PL), suggesting protracted development and possibly neurogenesis. Here we studied human PL development from embryonic stages to adulthood. The PL develops next to the caudal ganglionic eminence, which ...
1. Three of the most important brain structures regulating stress and impulse control are the prefrontal cortex, amygdala, and hippocampus. The Pilot (The Executive Control System) The executive control system is largely governed by the prefrontal cortex, the seat of planning, organization, impulse ...
you're frightened. That's what our monkeys look like. They're frightened," he says. But Amaral doesn't dismiss the possibility that some amygdala dysfunction could play a role in autism. He is currently using magnetic resonance imaging to examine amygdala function in autistic children and ...
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are incretins that enhance insulin secretion and improve satiety by slowing gastric emptying and acting on arcuate nucleus of hypothalamus, limbic/reward system in amygdala, and the cortex [128,129,130]. A recent meta-analysis indicates that GLP...
