| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Reactive attachment disorder (RAD) is a severe social functioning disorder associated with early childhood maltreatment, characterized by emotionally withdrawn-inhibited behavior. Previously, we reported RAD is associated with decreased ventral striatum activity during reward task. The neuropeptide oxytocin (OT) has been reported to enhance brain reward system in healthy adults. This study examined the neural effects of intranasal OT on reward processing in children and adolescents with RAD.
Twenty male children and adolescents with RAD and age- and gender-matched 28 typically developing (TD) individuals performed high and low monetary reward task during fMRI. The effects of intranasally administered OT were tested in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, within-subject, cross-over design.
We found that intranasal OT increased reward sensitivity in the striatum in RAD patients. These findings indicate that OT may promote reward processing and reward-related behavior in RAD.
