Abnormal Amygdala Subregion Functional Connectivity in Patients with Crohn’s Disease with or without Anxiety and Depression by Jingwen Sun, Wei Sun, Kecen Yue, Yin Zhang, Xintong Wu, Wenjia Liu, Ling Zou, Haifeng Shi

“…A total of 33 patients with CD and with anxiety or depression (CDad group), 31 patients with CD but without anxiety or depression (CDnad group), and 29 age-, sex-, and education level-matched HCs underwent functional magnetic resonance imaging. rsFC analysis was used to analyze the FC between the amygdala subregions and other areas of the brain. Results. Compared with the HC group, the CDad group demonstrated decreased rsFC between the right laterobasal subregion and the left hippocampus (P<.001) and right middle frontal gyrus (P<.001) and between the left superficial subregion and the left insula (P<.001). …”

An Emerging New Paradigm in Opioid Withdrawal: A Critical Role for Glia-Neuron Signaling in the Periaqueductal Gray by Handong Ouyang, Shue Liu, Weian Zeng, Roy C. Levitt, Keith A. Candiotti, Shuanglin Hao

“…., semisynthetic derivatives of opium and other molecules that activate opioid receptors) induces dependence, which is associated with various specific behavioral and somatic signs after their withdrawal or after the administration of an opioid antagonist. Among the brain regions implicated in opiate dependence and withdrawal, the periaqueductal gray area (PAG) appears to be critical in regulating the complex signs and symptoms of opioid withdrawal. …”
