Objective: Disinhibitory behavior during childhood and adolescence has been frequently shown to amplify the risk for substance use disorder (SUD) in adulthood. This prospective study examined the hypothesis that poor communication with parents and association with deviant peers comprise an SUD-promoting environtype which catalyzes transition of disinhibitory behavior toward SUD.
Method: Male (N = 499) and female (N = 195) youths were tracked from 10 to 12 to 30 years of age. Path analysis evaluated the patterning of disinhibitory behavior and social environment during childhood on substance use during adolescence, and antisocial personality without co-occurring SUD in early adulthood and subsequently substance use disorder (SUD).
Results: Disinhibitory behavior (SUD vulnerability) in childhood predicts antisociality without SUD (age 22) that segues to SUD (age 23-30) whereas the environtype (parents and peers) predicts substance use during adolescence which predicts antisocial personality leading to SUD. Antisociality without SUD in early adulthood mediates the association of substance use during adolescence and SUD.
Conclusion: Disinhibitory behavior and deviance-promoting social environment conjointly promote development of SUD via deviant socialization.

Basal forebrain innervation of the amygdala: an anatomical and computational exploration.

Theta oscillations of the mammalian amygdala are associated with processing, encoding and retrieval of aversive memories. In the hippocampus, the power of the network theta oscillation is modulated by basal forebrain (BF) GABAergic projections. Here, we combine anatomical and computational approaches to investigate if similar BF projections to the amygdaloid complex provide an analogous modulation of local network activity.

Article Synopsis
- This study explores the unique roles of three types of GABAergic interneurons (PV, SOM, VIP) in the brain's cortical networks and how their specific activity influences inhibitory functions.* -
- A biologically realistic multi-layer model simulates the network dynamics of these interneurons, fitting it to real data regarding their firing rates and responses to stimulation.* -
- The model successfully captures the distinct inhibitory and disinhibitory effects of these cells and predicts how short-term synaptic plasticity modifies their responses, offering insights into their computational roles in sensory processing.*

Short-term plasticity is an important feature in the brain for shaping neural dynamics and for information processing. Short-term plasticity is known to depend on many factors including brain region, cortical layer, and cell type. Here we focus on vasoactive-intestinal peptide (VIP) interneurons (INs).

Article Synopsis
- - Hypoxia induces various breathing behaviors, notably gasping, which helps improve blood flow and coordination between heart and lungs by altering breathing patterns and pressures in the body.
- - The study tested if gasps during hypoxia are amplified by a specific circuit in the brain responsible for breathing and if this signal spreads to other areas involved in respiratory control.
- - Results showed that changes in neuron activity and connectivity in brainstem circuits support the idea that these areas work together to enhance breathing efforts during hypoxia, leading to gasping as a lifesaving reflex.

Much research has focused on executive function (EF) impairments in psychopathy, a severe personality disorder characterized by a lack of empathy, antisocial behavior, and a disregard for social norms and moral values. However, it is still unclear to what extent EF deficits are present across psychopathy factors and, more importantly, which EF domains are impaired. The current meta-analysis answers these questions by synthesizing the results of 50 studies involving 5,694 participants from 12 different countries.
