The Impact of Dexamphetamine Treatment for Obesity on Executive Function: A Double-Blind Randomised Controlled Pilot Study

Brain Sciences
Background: Amphetamines increase dopamine levels in mid-brain regions which, in turn, impact top-down executive function. Repeated exposure is linked to substance use disorders.

Fluctuating disinhibition: Implications for the understanding and treatment of alcohol and other substance use disorders

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2013
Disinhibition is present in various maladaptive behaviours, including substance use disorders. Most previous research has assumed that disinhibition is a psychological construct that is relatively stable within individuals.

Effect of foreknowledge on neural activity of primary go responses relates to response stopping and switching

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
Being able to stop (or inhibit) an action rapidly as in a stop-signal task is an essential human ability. Previous studies showed that when a pre-stimulus cue warned of the possible need to stop a response in an upcoming trial, participants’ response ...

Myopic decisions under negative emotions correlate with altered time perception

Frontiers in Psychology, 2015
Previous studies have obtained inconsistent findings about emotional influence on inter-temporal choice. In the present study, we first examined the effect of temporary emotional priming induced by affective pictures in a trial-to-trial paradigm on inter-

Right Fronto-Subcortical White Matter Microstructure Predicts Cognitive Control Ability on the Go/No-go Task in a Community Sample

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018
Go/no-go tasks are widely used to index cognitive control. This construct has been linked to white matter microstructure in a circuit connecting the right inferior frontal gyrus (IFG), subthalamic nucleus (STN), and pre-supplementary motor area. However,

HSP90 inhibition without heat shock response [PDF]

Blood, 2018
In this issue of Blood, Bhatia and colleagues describe a heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) C-terminal dimerization inhibitor with mechanistic differences that distinguish it from other clinically unsuccessful N-terminal ATPase binding compounds.1 Can graveyard raiding of an old therapeutic target with a new strategy bring long awaited success?

Inhibitory control in the sober state as a function of alcohol sensitivity: a pilot functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
IntroductionLower sensitivity (LS) to acute alcohol promotes hazardous alcohol use, increasing risk for alcohol use disorder (AUD). Compared to peers with high sensitivity (HS), LS individuals exhibit amplified responses to alcohol cues and difficulty ...
