Neural reward processing deficits in depression: Can a blunted neural reward response be a trait-like marker? This study explores specific depression phenotypes, focusing on early-onset depression associated with intergenerational transmission in women and girls.
Interestingly, the study found no significant association between maternal adult-onset depression and neural reward response in mothers or daughters. It seems that the blunted response is more closely linked to early-onset depression.
The blunted neural reward response may serve as a potential marker for depression, emerging before depression onset and relating to specific phenotypes like early-onset depression. It could aid in early identification and targeted interventions doi.org/10.3758/s13415-023-0…
