Journal ArticleDOI
Activation of memory circuits during cue-elicited cocaine craving
Steven Grant,Edythe D. London,David B. Newlin,Victor L. Villemagne,Xiang Liu,Carlo Contoreggi,Robert L. Phillips,Alane S. Kimes,Arthur Margolin +8 more
TL;DR: Correlations of metabolic increases in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, medial temporal lobe, and cerebellum with self-reports of craving suggest that a distributed neural network, which integrates emotional and cognitive aspects of memory, links environmental cues with cocaine craving.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decision-making in a Risk-taking Task: A PET Study
Monique Ernst,Karen I. Bolla,Maria Mouratidis,Carlo Contoreggi,John A. Matochik,V Kurian,Jean Lud Cadet,Alane S. Kimes,Edythe D. London,Edythe D. London +9 more
TL;DR: A risk-taking task during positron emission tomography with 15O-labeled water provided a framework for future investigations of decision-making in maladaptive behaviors.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is concluded that CRH plays a broad role in the physiological responses to psychological stress in primates and that a CRH type 1 receptor antagonist may be of therapeutic value in human psychiatric, reproductive, and cardiovascular disorders associated with CRH system hyperactivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dean F. Wong,Dean F. Wong,Hiroto Kuwabara,David J. Schretlen,Katherine R. Bonson,Katherine R. Bonson,Yun Zhou,Ayon Nandi,James Robert Brašić,Alane S. Kimes,Marika Maris,Anil Kumar,Carlo Contoreggi,Jonathan M. Links,Monique Ernst,Olivier Rousset,Stephen R. Zukin,Stephen R. Zukin,Anthony A. Grace,Charles A. Rohde,Donald R. Jasinski,Albert Gjedde,Edythe D. London +22 more
TL;DR: Receptor occupancy by dopamine increased significantly in putamen of participants who reported cue-elicited craving compared to those who did not, presumably because of increased release of intrasynaptic dopamine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Decision Making in Adolescents With Behavior Disorders and Adults With Substance Abuse
Monique Ernst,Steven Grant,Steven Grant,Edythe D. London,Edythe D. London,Carlo Contoreggi,Carlo Contoreggi,Alane S. Kimes,Alane S. Kimes,Loretta Spurgeon,Loretta Spurgeon +10 more
TL;DR: Testing with the Gambling Task revealed a deficit in decision making in adolescents with behavior disorders, who are at risk for substance abuse, which may represent a vulnerability factor for the development of substance abuse.
