Disconnectivity between Dorsal Raphe Nucleus and Posterior Cingulate Cortex in Later Life Depression
The dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) has been repeatedly implicated as having a significant relationship with depression, along with its serotoninergic innervation. However, functional connectivity of the DRN in depression is not well understood. The current study aimed to isolate functional connectivity of the DRN distinct in later life depression (LLD) compared to a healthy age-matched population. ...
متن کاملThe dorsal raphe nucleus and serotonin: implications for neuroplasticity linked to major depression and Alzheimer's disease.
The dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) is a heterogeneous brainstem nucleus located in the midbrain and pons. Via widespread projections, which target a multitude of brain areas, its neurons utilize many transmitters to control various physiological functions, including learning, memory and affect. Accordingly, the DRN has been strongly associated with brain dysfunction, especially mood disorders such ...
متن کاملThe dorsal raphe nucleus--from silver stainings to a role in depression.
Over a hundred years ago, Santiago Ramón y Cajal used a new staining method developed by Camillo Golgi to visualize, among many other structures, what we today call the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) of the midbrain. Over the years, the DRN has emerged as a multifunctional and multitransmitter nucleus, which modulates or influences many CNS processes. It is a phylogenetically old brain area, whose ...
متن کاملCalretinin in Dorsal Raphe Nucleus of the Chinchilla
The localisation of carletinin in the midbrains of 10 sexually mature chinchilla males was examined by carrying out the peroxidase-antiperoxidase immunocytochemical reaction using specific monoclonal antibody against calretinin. Intensive immunostaining for the protein was observed in the majority of fusiform, pyramidal, and stellate neurons of dorsal raphe nucleus. A similar calretinin distrib...
متن کاملOrexinergic signaling mediates light-induced neuronal activation in the dorsal raphe nucleus.
Seasonal affective disorder (SAD), a major depressive disorder recurring in the fall and winter, is caused by the reduction of light in the environment, and its depressive symptoms can be alleviated by bright light therapy. Both circadian and monoaminergic systems have been implicated in the etiology of SAD. However, the underlying neural pathways through which light regulates mood are not well...
