Mushrooms, Microdosing, and Mental Illness: The Effect of Psilocybin on Neurotransmitters, Neuroinflammation, and Neuroplasticity by Kinderlehrer DA

“…Psilocin, the active ingredient of mushrooms in the Psilocybe genus, is both a potent serotonin agonist and anti-inflammatory agent, increases neuroplasticity, and decreases overactivity in the default mode network. Studies using hallucinogenic doses of psilocin under the supervision of a therapist/guide have consistently demonstrated benefits to individuals with depression and end-of-life anxiety. …”

Common and distinct neural underpinnings of the association between childhood maltreatment and depression and aggressive behavior by Yuan Li, Ting Zhang, Xin Hou, Xiaoyi Chen, Yu Mao

“…Results The results demonstrated that FC within the default mode network (DMN) and between the cingulo-opercular network (CON) and dorsal attention network (DAN) mediated the association between childhood maltreatment and aggression, whereas FC within the reward system and between the CON and the reward system mediated the link between childhood maltreatment and depression. …”

Progress in the Application of Resting-State Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Chronic Nonspecific Low Back Pain by XU Ting, XUE Qin, LÜ Ying, TU Jianchun, DAI Dechun

“…Studies show that there are plastic changes in the brain areas related to pain perception, emotion, and cognition in CNLBP, and these abnormalities still exist even in the absence of noxious pain; the function of the motivation-reward circuit in CNLBP is weakened, leading to a decline in cognitive ability; the Default Mode Network (DMN) produces complex regulation of pain through the adjustment within its own network and other brain networks; negative emotions may further reduce the information transmission capacity at both global and local levels of the CNLBP brain functional network. …”
