Corticostriatal Circuit - Disorder Flashcards
VS hypoactivity is associated with __ motivation for rewards, goal-directed behavior, and reward learning
decreased
VS hyperactivity is associated with __ motivation for stimuli not commonly associated with reward, and maladaptive goal-directed behaviors
increased
major depressive depression is VC (hypo/hyper?)activity
hypoactivity
loss of interest or pleasure in nearly all activities
anhedonia
advantage of monetary incentive delay tasks is to isolate circuit responses to __ and __
anticipation and outcome
VS activity __ during reward anticipation in individuals with MDD
decreases
patients w/MDD and VS hypoactivity had __ VS levels after 6 weeks of SSRI treatment
normal
patients w/MDD’s pretreatment VS hypoactivity was associated with __ anhedonic symptoms
greater
in the MID(monetary incentive delay) task, people with MDD had __ VS activity compared to those of healthy participants
lower
studies found __ difference in VS hypoactivity during the anticipation stage of healthy vs MDD patients
no
relative to healthy participants, individuals with MDD demonstrate significantly __ VS activity difference to positive stimuli
less
relative to healthy participants, individuals with MDD demonstrate __ VS activity for neutral and negative stimuli
similar
magnitude of VS activity to positive words is __ correlated with anhedonic symptoms
negatively
deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the VS results in __ activity of this circuit hub, including amygdala and PFC regions
increased
DBS targeting VS results in an almost instantaneous __ in depressive symptoms, including anhedonia
improvement
complex pattern of dysfunctional responses following exposure to a discrete, identifiable traumatic event or experience involving threat of death or serious bodily harm
PTSD
In the Israeli soldier study, __ VS activity and __ amygdala activity postdeployment characterized the soldiers at highest risk for developing PTSD-like symptoms
