Our analyses highlight the vulnerability of neuro-emotional systems from the beginning of adolescence, and all indications are that brain development may be organised around early features that will favour the risk of recurrent depression.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Particular attention is being paid to the study of interactions with life events during transition periods, and their contribution to individual vulnerability.<\/p>\n

Multimodal imaging of brain development in adolescents and young adults explores the hypothesis that key periods of brain maturation correspond to phases of transition and vulnerability to psychopathological risk :\u00a0https:\/\/www.neuron-eranet.eu\/_media\/ADORe_summary.pdf<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Precursors of depressive states<\/strong> have been detected by the ERL INSERM collaborators in adolescents followed between 14 and 16 years of age: difficulties in emotional regulation<\/em> during adolescence often lead to fears of the onset of a mood disorder.<\/p>\n

    – In \u00ab\u00a0healthy\u00a0\u00bb adolescents at age 14, decreased activation of the ventral striatum preceded a subdepressive state or major depression<\/em> at age 16 (\u00a9 American Journal of Psychiatry 2015) :<\/p>\n

    – Stressful life events<\/em> may – alter the fMRI responses of anger-activated regions, and – mediate a risk of diagnosis of major depression two years later.<\/p>\n

    Transition to a depressive state. <\/strong>Figure<\/em> :<\/p>\n

    Top<\/span> <\/em>: Subdepressed 14-year-old adolescents already had decreased grey matter volumes in the anterior cingulate, ventromedial prefrontal cortex, and striatum (\u00a9Journal of American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry 2015). Centre<\/em><\/span> : These changes mediated a significant risk of worsening to major depression 2 years later.\u00a0<\/p>\n

    Bottom<\/u> : <\/em>The microstructure of the white matter serving these regions was altered in these adolescents. A prediction individual<\/strong><\/em> transition to a major depressive state could be made from diffusion imaging (DTI) measurements using a machine learning method (from \u00a9JAACAP 2015, and \u00a9American Journal of Psychiatry 2018).<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

    Between the ages of 14 and 16, volume variations in limbic regions (limbic amygdala and hippocampus) mediated some of the personality changes between girls and boys (\u00a9Bezivin, Neuroimage 2020) :<\/p>\n

      At age 14, mismatch in sleep patterns<\/em> between weekends and weekdays correlated with volume decreases in medial prefrontal and anterior cingulate regions, and worsening academic performance (Urrila et al., Scientific Reports 2017) :<\/p>\n
