Abstract

Using fMRI, we examined neural mechanisms in response to acute laboratory stress in young adults with current and remitted major depressive disorder and healthy controls. Hypoactivity was observed in the OFC (p<.02), right hippocampus (p≤.01), left amygdala (p=.02), anterior insula (p<.001, and hypothalamus (p=.03) in stress versus no stress conditions.
