简要总结
The study will investigate whether a nociceptin receptor antagonist will normalize neural and behavioral processes of approach/avoidance decision-making in unmedicated individuals with major depressive disorder (MDD) and anxiety disorders. More specifically, the study aims to investigate dysregulation within (1) corticostriatal-midbrain circuitry and (2) nociceptin/orphanin FQ peptide and the nociceptin receptor (NOPR).

研究组 & 干预措施
Participants with MDD or an anxiety disorder receiving the nociceptin receptor antagonist
After a diagnostic interview (determining the presence of MDD or an anxiety disorder) and collection of blood for Orphanin FQ/Nociceptin assays, participants will receive the nociceptin receptor antagonist. Participants will then complete an approach/avoidance task. Functional magnetic resonance imagining (fMRI) will begin 2 hours after the nociceptin receptor antagonist is administered.
干预措施: Nociceptin Receptor Antagonist (Drug)
Healthy controls receiving the nociceptin receptor antagonist
After a diagnostic interview (determining healthy control status) and collection of blood for Orphanin FQ/Nociceptin assays, participants will receive a nociceptin receptor antagonist. Participants will then complete an approach/avoidance task. fMRI will begin 2 hours after the nociceptin receptor antagonist is administered.
干预措施: Nociceptin Receptor Antagonist (Drug)
Healthy controls receiving the placebo
After a diagnostic interview (determining healthy control status) and collection of blood for Orphanin FQ/Nociceptin assays, participants will receive the placebo. Participants will then complete an approach/avoidance task. fMRI will begin 2 hours after the placebo is administered.
干预措施: Aversive stimuli (Device)
