Brain Mechanisms of Social Threat Effects on Working Memory

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effects of social evaluative threat on working memory (WM) and found that social threat impaired WM performance during an N-back task and produced widespread reductions in activation in lateral prefrontal cortex and intraparietal sulcus (IPS), among other regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of Genetically Regulated Gene Expression Identifies a Prefrontal PTSD Gene, SNRNP35, Specific to Military Cohorts.

TL;DR: Exogenous glucocorticoid-regulated expression changes in mice downregulate prefrontal Snrnp35 expression, which suggests substantial genetic heterogeneity based on ancestry, cohort type (military versus civilian, and sex), and sex.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is indicated that cortical volumes in PTSD patients are smaller in prefrontal regulatory regions, as well as in broader emotion and sensory processing cortical regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cultural variation in the gray matter volume of the prefrontal cortex is moderated by the dopamine D4 receptor gene (DRD4).

TL;DR: The present evidence is consistent with a view that culture shapes the brain by mobilizing epigenetic pathways that are gradually established through socialization and enculturation.
