  1. What is the directionality of the onset of comorbid substance use and other psychiatric disorders APA 2007 Developmental Model To Explain Onset And Directionality Of Comorbid Disorders Monique Ernst, M.D., Ph.D. Emotional Development and Affective Neuroscience National Institute of Mental Health NIH / DHHS

  2. ADHD Depression DEVELOPMENT Core Psychological Processes Reinforcement Impulsivity Attention Core Underlying neural networks Ventral Striatum Amygdala PFC Genetics Environment Clinical Diathesis Substance Abuse

  3. ADOLESCENCE PEAK ONSETOF PSYCHOPATHOLOGY • MOOD DISORDERS • ANXIETY DISORDERS • SUBSTANCE ABUSE DISORDERS

  4. ADOLESCENCE: UNIQUE COGNITIVE/AFFECTIVE ARCHITECTURE COGNITIVE IMPULSIVITY RISK SEEKING AFFECTIVE INTENSITY

  5. Brain Development 115% Parietal 110% Frontal 105% Temporal % Relative to Adult Total Volume Total 100% Brain Cerebellum 95% 90% 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 Age (in years) Total Brain Cerebellum Frontal Temporal Parietal Based on 243 Brain MRI Scans of 145 Children and Adolescents Giedd et al., 1999

  6. Avoidance Approach Brainstem nuclei Ventral Pallidum Behavior Behavior McGinty and Grace, 2006 Yim, Mogenson, 1982 Modulatory Control Decision-Making Circuits From Kelley et al., 2004

  7. COGNITIVE IMPULSIVITY RISK SEEKING AFFECTIVE INTENSITY Avoidance Approach ADOLESCENT BEHAVIOR • Imbalance between maturation of emotional systems and cognitive systems • Imbalance among approach behavioral system, avoidance behavioral system, and self-regulation

  8. NUCLEUS ACCUMBENS(Ventral Striatum) • Involved in responses to appetitive stimuli and approach behavior • Indexed by changes in dopamine release in the striatum

  9. Nucleus Accumbens--Approach Extracellular Dopamine Leyton et al., 2002

  11. AMYGDALA • Involved in responses to aversive stimuli and avoidance behavior: Amygdala lesions • Developmental changes: Early gene expression in response to stress

  12. Neutral Trial Active Trial snake neutral APPROACH / AVOIDANCEAMYGDALA LESIONS Izquierdo and Murray, 2004

  13. APPROACH / AVOIDANCEAMYGDALA LESIONS Avoidance Mean latency (s) Approach Izquierdo and Murray, 2004

  14. Adults Adolescents Amygdala Response in RatsAfter 15 min. restraint Adolescents: less Fos expression in amygdala • Kellogg et al., 1998

  15. MEDIAL PREFRONTAL CORTEX • Involved in Executive Function, higher level of behavioral control • Unique changes in adolescence (animal work) • DA input to PFC peaks in adolescence (Rosenberg & Lewis, 1995). • DA concentrations (Leslie et al, 1991) and DA fiber density (Benes et al, 2000) rise throughout adolescence • Disappearance of DA autoreceptors, loss of buffering capacity (Dumont et al, 2004)

  16. Appetitive Appetitive Appetitive Aversive Aversive Aversive Reactivity to: Both Appetitive Aversive VALENCE RESPONSE IN ADULTS Appetitive vs. Aversive [Appetitve – Aversive] fMRI BOLD signal change 0

  31. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS • Evolutionary fitness: • Highly conserved behavior across species • Policy making: • Age limit for driving license • Age limit for alcohol consumption • Risk for psychopathology - comorbidity: • Predictive value of the model • Parameters specific to distinct disorders
