项目摘要

Project Summary Our proposal will investigate how neuronal coordination between the medial frontal cortex (MFC) and the basolateral amygdala (BLA) is causally involved in complex social interactions. We will capitalize on our newly developed social gaze interaction paradigm in pairs of rhesus macaques to understand the neurobiological mechanisms of MFC-BLA coupling, with a goal of working toward generating a macaque model of social dysfunction. We will first determine whether and how the two regions are coordinated during various social gaze events (e.g., looking at the eyes or mutual eye contact). We will then stimulate MFC, BLA or both in order to disrupt the MFC-BLA coordination to induce social gaze deficits. Finally, we will examine whether these disruptions are generalizable to other social domains by testing the impact of perturbing MFC-BLA coordination in a complex social decision-making game. Informed by these results, we hope to investigate in the future how pharmacological (systemic or focal drug manipulations) and behavioral (social interaction manipulations) interventions could effectively restore the inducible social deficits.

项目摘要我们的建议将调查内侧额叶皮层（MFC）与中间的神经元协调基底外侧杏仁核（BLA）在因果关系中与复杂的社会互动有关。我们将利用新的开发了成对猕猴的社会凝视互动范式，以了解神经生物学 MFC-Bla耦合的机制，目的是致力于产生猕猴的社会模型功能障碍。我们将首先确定在各种社交期间两个区域的协调方式以及如何协调凝视事件（例如，看眼睛或相互的眼神接触）。然后，我们将按顺序刺激MFC，BLA或两者破坏MFC-BLA协调以引起社会目光的缺陷。最后，我们将检查这些是否通过测试扰动MFC-BLA协调的影响，可以推广到其他社会领域在一个复杂的社会决策游戏中。通过这些结果，我们希望将来调查药理（全身或局灶性药物操纵）和行为（社交互动操作）干预措施可以有效地恢复诱导的社会缺陷。
