1 Stress Impairs Prefrontal Cortex Function: Why Stress Can Produce an ADHD-Like Profile Amy F.T. Arnsten, Ph.D. Professor of Neurobiology Yale University School of Medicine
2 SOME IMAGES HAVE BEEN REMOVED TO REDUCE THE MEMORY REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS PRESENTATION
3 Disclosures Dr. Arnsten and Yale University have license agreements with: Shire Pharmaceuticals for the development of guanfacine for the treatment of ADHD, and Marinus Pharmaceuticals for the development of chelerythrine for the treatment of bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, PTSD and related illnesses
4 Goals of Talk Learn about the prefrontal cortex, and why dysfunction of the prefrontal cortex produces symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Learn about how brain cells (neurons) in prefrontal cortex communicate with each other, and how they form networks that allow high order regulation of behavior and thought. Learn about how sensitive prefrontal networks are to chemicals released according to our state of arousal, and how either too little (fatigue, boredom) or too much (stress) of these chemicals impairs prefrontal abilities. Understand how chemical changes in the prefrontal cortex produced by genetic and/or environmental insults associated with ADHD, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and lead poisoning lead to weakened prefrontal function, and how optimal use of medications may be able to correct some of these insults.
5 Prefrontal Cortex
6 Prefrontal Cortex The most highly evolved brain region
7 Prefrontal Cortex Our Mental Sketchpad Our Central Executive
8 Prefrontal Cortex The ability to represent information that is not currently in the environment, and use that information to thoughtfully guide attention, actions and emotions.
9 Prefrontal Cortex Inhibits inappropriate behaviors, thoughts, and emotions Inhibits interference from external and internal distractions
10 Prefrontal Cortex Allows us to make decisions, and have insight and judgment Allows us to organize and plan for the future
11 Prefrontal Cortex Understands what others are thinking (Theory of Mind) Monitors errors, knows what is real vs. imagined
12 Prefrontal Cortex Allows us to delay gratification Allows us to multi-task and sort through high levels of information

32 ALTERED PFC ACTIVITY AND STRUCTURE IN MANIA Blumberg et al, 1999
33 Prefrontal cortex regulates behavior, thought and feelings through networks of interconnected neurons
34 Networks of prefrontal pyramidal cells represent stimuli (e.g. I left my math book 90º from the TV), and represent goals and rules (I will finish my homework, I must sit in my seat). Network activity is used to guide correct choices, and to inhibit inappropriate responses. Networks maintain their activity through recurrent excitation ; i.e. the cells excite each other in the absence of environmental stimulation.

90 Summary: Networks maintain representations through recurrent excitation ; i.e. the cells excite each other to maintain firing even with no stimulation from the outside world. The neurons in the networks interact through synapses on dendritic spines. The spines in prefrontal cortex often contain receptors for neuromodulators such as norepinephrine, and contain ion channels that can alter the strength of input connections onto the spine. The chemical environment influences whether PFC cells can engage with correct networks, and disconnect from irrelevant inputs.
91 PFC network connections are very sensitive to their chemical environment

The prefrontal cortex is the brain region that assesses whether we are in control, and shuts off the stress response if it thinks we are.
