Interplay of early negative life events, development of orbitofrontal cortical thickness and depression in young adulthood

Lea L. Backhausen,
Jonas Granzow,
Juliane H. Fröhner
et al.

Abstract: BackgroundEarly negative life events (NLE) have long‐lasting influences on neurodevelopment and psychopathology. Reduced orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) thickness was frequently associated with NLE and depressive symptoms. OFC thinning might mediate the effect of NLE on depressive symptoms, although few longitudinal studies exist. Using a complete longitudinal design with four time points, we examined whether NLE during childhood and early adolescence predict depressive symptoms in young adulthood through accelerat… Show more

“…Less is known about whether the accumulation of more common, less severe negative experiences also constitute risk factors for depression throughout life. In the longitudinal IMAGEN Consortium cohort (N = 321), Backhausen et al (2024) studied the impact of commonly encountered negative life events in childhood, ranging from illness and death in the family to social and school problems, on depressed mood in young adulthood. Negative life events prior to age 14 were found to cumulatively impact on depressive mood in young adulthood, up to 8 years later.…”

“…However, this study lacked a prospective component, thereby leaving causal inference to speculation. Future research that combines these multimodal environment-sensitive brain patterns with the prospective design of Backhausen et al (2024), would be ideally suited to better understand the longitudinal dynamics, chronicity, and possible causality of environmental influences on brain and mental health throughout development.…”
