Glutamatergic and resting state functional connectivity correlates of severity in major depression - the role of pregenual anterior cingulate cortex and anterior insula

Glutamatergic mechanisms and resting state functional connectivity alterations have been recently described as factors contributing to Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Furthermore, the pregenual anterior cingulate cortex (pgACC) seems to play an important role for major depressive symptoms such as a...
