Structural and functional connectivity coupling as an imaging marker for bone metastasis pain in lung cancer patients by Jiahui Zheng, Chengfang Wang, Xiaoyu Zhou, Yu Tang, Lin Tang, Yong Tan, Jing Zhang, Hong Yu, Jiuquan Zhang, Daihong Liu

“…Notably, hyper-couplings related to bone metastasis pain were present in several brain regions, mainly involving the default mode network, frontoparietal network, salience network, and limbic system. Significant positive correlations were observed between regional coupling in the right amygdala and the numeric rating scale scores in BMP+. …”

The Instant Effects of Continuous Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation at Acupoints on the Functional Connectivity of Amygdala in Migraine without Aura: A Preliminary S... by Wenting Luo, Yue Zhang, Zhaoxian Yan, Xian Liu, Xiaoyan Hou, Weicui Chen, Yongsong Ye, Hui Li, Bo Liu

“…Continuous taVNS at acupoints can modulate the FC between the bilateral amygdalae and pain-related brain regions in MwoA, involving the limbic system, default mode network, and pain matrix, with obvious differences between the left amygdala and the right amygdala. …”

Altered functional network topology properties to detect anxiety and depression caused by Crohn’s disease and disease severity by Jiaxing Yang, Kechen Yue, Jingwen Sun, Changjie Pan, Xintong Wu, Yongjun Cheng, Xiaomeng Wu, Haifeng Shi

“…The functional connectivity (FC) between the default mode network and visual network was increased, and the FC in the limbic system was decreased. In the CD group, local topological properties in the amygdala and precuneus were negatively correlated with HADS-A scores, and local topological properties in the superior occipital gyrus were positively correlated with SES-CD scores. …”

Indications for an antidepressive effect of thymosin alpha-1 in a small open-label proof of concept study in common variable immune deficiency patients with depression by Daniël G. Aynekulu Mersha, Sarah E. Fromme, Frank van Boven, Gara Arteaga-Henríquez, Annemarie Wijkhuijs, Marianne van der Ent, Raf Berghmans, Bernard T. Baune, Hemmo A. Drexhage, Virgil Dalm

“…It is known that T cells are essential for limbic system development/function. Treatment with thymosin α1 (Tα1) is capable to increase the thymus output of naïve T cells. …”

Investigating neuropathological correlates of hyperactive and psychotic symptoms in dementia: a systematic review by Giulia Negro, Giulia Negro, Michele Rossi, Camillo Imbimbo, Alberto Gatti, Andrea Magi, Andrea Magi, Ildebrando Marco Appollonio, Ildebrando Marco Appollonio, Alfredo Costa, Alfredo Costa, Tino Emanuele Poloni, Tino Emanuele Poloni

“…The neuropathological analysis revealed the co-occurrence of multiple proteinopathies, particularly TAUopathy, TDP-43 pathology, and Lewy-related pathology (LRP), with the latter, in association with ADNC, reported in 15 studies.DiscussionHIDA-P symptoms were linked with overlapping involvement of different neural circuits, particularly the amygdala and the broader limbic system. Evidence suggests that TAUopathy and multiple proteinopathies in key brain regions, such as amygdala, are central to the development of these symptoms. …”
