What is Neural Correlates of Glucocorticoids Effects on Autobiographical Memory Retrieval in Healthy Women about?

It is well known that elevated cortisol after stress or after exogenous administration impairs episodic memory retrieval including autobiographical memory (AM) retrieval. This impairment might be mediated by deactivation of a neural network associated with memory retrieval including the prefrontal cortex (PFC) and limbic structures. However, the neural underpinnings of these cortisol effects on AM retrieval have not been investigated yet. In this study, thirty-three healthy women received either placebo or 10 mg hydrocortisone in a double blind cross-over design before completing an AM test during fMRI. In this test, participants are asked to recall specific events from their own past in response to a cue word. In a first step, we analyzed the neural underpinnings of AM retrieval in the placebo condition. We found an activation pattern consistent with core regions involved in autobiographical memory recall, including the ventromedial PFC, anterior medial (am)PFC, inferior frontal gyrus, the posterior cingulate cortex, the tempoparietal junction, the middle temporal gyrus and the hippocampus. Further, we analyzed brain activation during AM retrieval after hydrocortisone compared to
