Stress 4:205-13. 2001..Cells that are involved in the release of TNF-a at the feto-maternal interface include T cells, macrophages and mast cells.Mechanisms through which stress may act on these cells are explored and an integrated model is postulated...
The interactive effect of acute ovarian suppression and the cholinergic system on visuospatial working memory in young womenM C Craig
Department of Psychological Medicine, Institute of Psychiatry, Kings College London, London, United Kingdom
Psychoneuroendocrinology 35:987-1000. 2010..Overall, our findings point to a neural network by which acute loss of ovarian function may interact to negatively impact encoding...
Altered connections on the road to psychopathyM C Craig
Section of Brain Maturation, Institute of Psychiatry, De Crespigny Park, London, UK
Mol Psychiatry 14:946-53, 907. 2009..Our findings remained significant. Taken together, these results suggest that abnormalities in a specific amygdala-OFC limbic network underpin the neurobiological basis of psychopathy...

A study of visuospatial working memory pre- and post-Gonadotropin Hormone Releasing Hormone agonists (GnRHa) in young womenMichael C Craig
Section of Brain Maturation PO50, Department of Psychological Medicine, Institute of Psychiatry, King s College, London, UK
Horm Behav 54:47-59. 2008..Our study suggests that acute ovarian hormone withdrawal following GnRHa, and perhaps at other times, (e.g. following surgical menopause and postpartum) alters the neural circuitry underlying performance of VWM...

Women with autistic-spectrum disorder: magnetic resonance imaging study of brain anatomyMichael C Craig
PO Box 50, Institute of Psychiatry, De Crespigny Park, Denmark Hill, London SE5 8AF, UK

Effects of acute ovarian hormone suppression on the human brain: an in vivo 1H MRS studyMichael C Craig
Department of Psychological Medicine, Institute of Psychiatry, Section of Brain Maturation, London, UK
Psychoneuroendocrinology 32:1128-32. 2007..They also showed a trend to a significant increase in Cho concentration in the hippocampus. This supports our previous findings and adds to the evidence that neuronal/glial membrane metabolism is affected by sex hormones in women...
Oestrogen, cognition and the maturing female brainM C Craig
Section of Brain Maturation, Department of Psychological Medicine, Institute of Psychiatry, 16 De Crespigny Park, London, UK
J Neuroendocrinol 19:1-6. 2007..Here, we review the evidence that, in healthy women, ovarian steroids/oestrogen affects brain regions crucial to higher cognitive function at the macroscopic, microscopic, functional and neurotransmitter levels...
Perinatal risk factors for neonaticide and infant homicide: can we identify those at risk?Michael Craig
Department of Psychological Medicine, Institute of Psychiatry, Room E209, PO 50, De Crespigny Park, London SE5 8AF, UK

Section of Brain Maturation, Department of Psychological Medicine, Institute of Psychiatry, PO 50, De Crespigny Park, Denmark Hill, London SE5 8AF, UK
Psychoneuroendocrinology 29:1309-16. 2004..Our results suggest that ET may enhance dopaminergic responsivity in post-menopausal women. Estrogen deficiency following menopause may partly explain age and gender differences in late-onset neuropsychiatric disorders...
