Immune-related gene expression links anxiety, depression, and pain outcomes in adolescence
Abstract Chronic pain and internalising disorders such as anxiety and depression frequently co-occur during adolescence. Although prospective associations between internalising symptoms and later pain have been reported previously, the biological mechanisms underlying individual differences in this relationship remain poorly understood. Immune- and oxidative stress-related pathways, including the NRF2 gene, may contribute to such variability.
Behavioural and brain volumetric changes associated with problematic substance use through the lifespan
|
Abstract Addiction stands as a critical public health concern, contributing substantially to morbidity, mortality and societal burden worldwide. It can be conceptualized along a developmental continuum, from risky substance use in adolescence to compulsive use and addiction in adulthood, yet the neural changes underlying this continuum remain poorly understood.

Are Your Employee Benefits Still Right for Your Workforce?
HRHQ Sponsored Content by Robert Whelan, founder and Managing Director of Rockwell An employee benefits package may still suit the workforce, even when the service supporting it needs to improve. For employers, the company pension scheme is often where those frustrations become apparent. When employees have pension questions, HR needs a reliable contact who can help.
Reproducible human reward imaging phenotypes exhibit differential sensitivity to dopamine D2 receptor antagonism
|
Abstract Human reward processing varies along cue-centric and outcome-centric axes, but the mechanistic basis of individual variation in incentive salience attribution remains incompletely characterized. Here we show, using fMRI across five cohorts (N-total = 1251; N1 = 890; N2 = 245; N3 = 34; N4 = 48; N5 = 34), two reproducible imaging phenotypes mirroring sign- and goal-tracking (ST-like, GT-like).

Personality variability during development predicts alcohol use before and during the COVID-19 pandemic
|
Abstract Changes in personality during adolescence may shape future alcohol use, especially in times of societal crisis. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted social norms and stress regulation, making it a natural experiment to examine how early-life personality trajectories predict later substance use.

Brain network-based stratification of mental health disorders: design and cohort description of the STRATIFY and ESTRA studies

Abstract The STRATIFY (Brain Network-Based Stratification of Reinforcement-Related Disorders) and ESTRA (Eating Disorders Stratification) studies were established as harmonised “sibling” cohorts to develop a mechanistically informed framework for stratifying psychiatric disorders. Here, we describe the study design, methodology, and cohort characteristics.

Abstract Brain clocks are promising tools for evaluating brain health. However, most current methods rely on structural neuroimaging. Functionally based approaches remain scarce, especially for assessing age-related neurodegenerative diseases.

Model-based analysis of stop-signal data reveals robust neural and clinical correlates of evidence accumulation but not inhibition
|
Abstract Poor inhibitory control and decision-making are often considered as risks for substance use and other adverse psychiatric outcomes. The Stop-Signal Task (SST) is a widely used protocol, from which inhibitory control is indexed by stop signal reaction time (SSRT). However, heretofore models of SSRT may be too simplistic to capture complex processes underlying task performance.

A longitudinal DNA methylation atlas and its link to brain structure and mental health
|
Abstract Epigenetic mechanisms are thought to contribute to neurodevelopmental vulnerability for psychiatric disorders, yet longitudinal evidence linking DNA methylation (DNAm) to brain maturation and psychopathology is limited. Using epigenome-wide DNAm (372,582 CpGs) and whole-brain structural MRI data from the IMAGEN cohort (n = 506, ages 14–19), we identified 18 co-regulated DNAm clusters, ten enriched for brain-expressed genes involved in neuronal development and signalling.

Characterising a stress-sensitive default mode network (DMN) deficit in major psychiatric disorders - Communications Biology

Abstract Childhood trauma (CT) is associated with cognitive impairment across major psychiatric disorders. We tested a novel transdiagnostic hypothesis that atypical connectivity of the default mode network (DMN) mediates the association between childhood trauma (CT) and cognitive impairment. The sample of 1851 individuals aged 18-25 included 433 patients with depression, eating disorders, alcohol use disorder, psychosis and ADHD) and were recruited as part of the ESTRA/STRATIFY/IMAGEN studies.

Diversity-sensitive brain clocks linked to biophysical mechanisms in aging and dementia - Nature Mental Health
Abstract Brain clocks track the deviations between predicted brain age and chronological age (brain age gaps, BAGs). These BAGs can be used to measure accelerated aging, monitoring deviations from the healthy brain trajectories associated with brain diseases and different cumulative burdens. However, the underlying biophysical mechanisms associated with BAGs in aging and dementia remain unclear.
Impulsivity and neuroticism share distinct functional connectivity signatures with alcohol-use risk in youth - Molecular Psychiatry

Abstract Increases in impulsivity and negative affect (e.g., neuroticism) are common during adolescence and are both associated with risk for alcohol-use initiation and other risk behaviors. Whole-brain functional connectivity approaches—when coupled with appropriate cross-validation—enable identification of complex neural networks subserving individual differences in dimensional traits (hereafter referred to as ‘neural signatures’).

Mapping the coupling between tract reachability and cortical geometry of the human brain - Nature Communications

Abstract The study of cortical geometry and connectivity is prevalent in human brain research. However, these two aspects of brain structure are usually examined separately, leaving the essential connections between the brain’s folding patterns and white matter connectivity unexplored. In this study, we aim to elucidate the fundamental links between cortical geometry and white matter tract connectivity.

Genetic risk-dependent brain markers of resilience to childhood Trauma - Nature Communications

Abstract Resilience to developing emotional disorders is critical for adolescent mental health, especially following childhood trauma. Yet, brain markers of resilience remain poorly understood. By analyzing brain responses to angry faces in a large-scale longitudinal adolescent cohort (IMAGEN), we identified two functional networks located in the orbitofrontal and occipital regions.

Redundancy in midlife: financial shock, emotional toll - and the path forward
It’s not just a job. For many people in their 40s and 50s, their work is a key part of their identity – a source of purpose, confidence, and stability. So when redundancy strikes mid-career, it can be more than a financial disruption; it can shake your sense of who you are. It’s an emotional and financial event – and often the two are more closely linked than you might think. Redundancy at midlife can feel like a sudden and unexpected derailment.

Relationships of eating behaviors with psychopathology, brain maturation and genetic risk for obesity in an adolescent cohort study - Nature Mental Health

Abstract Unhealthy eating, a risk factor for eating disorders (EDs) and obesity, often coexists with emotional and behavioral problems; however, the underlying neurobiological mechanisms are poorly understood. Analyzing data from the longitudinal IMAGEN adolescent cohort, we investigated associations between eating behaviors, genetic predispositions for high body mass index (BMI) using polygenic scores (PGSs), and trajectories (ages 14–23 years) of ED-related psychopathology and brain maturation.

Coupled changes between ruminating thoughts and resting-state brain networks during the transition into adulthood - Molecular Psychiatry
Abstract Perseverative negative thoughts, known as rumination, might arise from emotional challenges and preclude mental health when transitioning into adulthood.
