Local GABA concentration is related to network-level resting functional connectivity

Abstract: Anatomically plausible networks of functionally inter-connected regions have been reliably demonstrated at rest, although the neurochemical basis of these ‘resting state networks’ is not well understood. In this study, we combined magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and resting state fMRI and demonstrated an inverse relationship between levels of the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA within the primary motor cortex (M1) and the strength of functional connectivity across the resting motor network.

“…Moreover, previous work using MD has shown that interhemispheric inhibition through callosal inputs weakens deprived eye-evoked responses (60). It has been hypothesized that interhemispheric inhibition (IHI) is an essential component of cortical brain development (61), and increased interhemispheric inhibition is thought to limit spontaneous correlation between homotopic brain regions (46,62,63). Indeed, increased IHI after MD is consistent with the decreased spontaneous ISA correlation resulting from MD in our data.…”

“…Increased functional connectivity (FC) was found both in regions proximal to the electrode [30, 34, 38] and in distal regions belonging to the sensorimotor network [31, 36, 39]. Similarly, studies using graph theory, an approach taking into account network topology and synchronization between brain hubs [64], suggested a network-specific enhancement of connectivity following atDCS [32, 33, 35, 37].…”

“…Furthermore, it appears that resting-state networks can be selectively modulated by local tDCS, with excitatory (anodal) stimulation of primary motor cortex increasing functional connectivity within the motor network (Stagg et al, 2014).…”
