The Relationship between Neurocircuitry Dysfunctions and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: A Review

Abstract: The prefrontal cortex is the superlative structure of brain that needs the longest developmental and maturational duration that highlights the region of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in neuroimaging studies. Prefrontal cortex functions generate enormously complex and its abundant feedback neurocircuitries with subcortical structures such as striatum and thalamus established through dual neural fibers. These microneurocircuitries are called corticostriatothalamocortical (CSTC) circuits. The CS… Show more

“…41,42 The reduction in anterior cingulate gyrus grey matter volume in individuals with ADHD is significantly related to selective attention deficits. 43 These associations support the aforementioned discussion on the high discriminative power of the anterior cingulate gyrus and orbitofrontal cortex and are consistent with evidence of the prefrontalstriatal-cerebellar pathway involved in ADHD. 14 The present study has some limitations.…”

“…In patients with OCD, abnormalities of cortico-striatal circuits that involve the orbitofrontal cortex, anterior cingulate cortex, prefrontal cortices, temporo-parieto-occipital areas, thalamus, and the striatum have been suggested, 81,82 as well as impaired striatal connectivity. 83 In patients with ADHD, dysfunctions in the cortico-striatal-thalamo-cortical circuits, 84 changes in cortical thickness and gyrification, 85 changes in the serotonin transporter binding potential, 86 changes in callosal thickness, 87 and reduced gray matter volumes in various regions of the brain are seen. 88,89 In addition, the severity of ADHD and OCD symptoms probably has neuroanatomical correlates.…”

“…According to previous reports, lesions in the medial PFC cause alterations in the locomotor activity of rats (Jinks and McGregor, 1997;Fritts et al, 1998). Moreover, the NAcc and striatum (caudate putamen [CPu]) receive input from the PFC and are associated with locomotor activity and impulsivity (Moreno et al, 2013;Spencer et al, 2015;Scofield et al, 2016;Zhu et al, 2016;Dahoun et al, 2017). Hence, sections of PFC, NAcc, and CPu were subjected to gene expression and phospholipid analyses, and immunohistochemistry.…”
