Attention operates by changing the relative activity within
specified anatomical areas that perform computations
![Page 16: THE NEUROTOXICOLOGY OF ATTENTION DEFICITS](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56814743550346895db4803b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
DISTINCT ANATOMICAL NETWORKS CARRY OUT SPECIFIC ASPECTS OF ATTENTION
• ALERTING NETWORK– LOCATION: ARAS, ETC.
– FUNCTION: ACHIEVE AND MAINTAIN STATE OF READINESS
• ORIENTING NETWORK– LOCATIONS: PARIETAL LOBE, SUPERIOR COLLICULUS & PULVINAR
– FUNCTION: REACT TO SENSORY STIMULI
• EXECUTIVE NETWORK– LOCATION: ANTERIOR CINGULATE; DORSOLATERAL FRONTAL
CORTEX & BASAL GANGLIA
– FUNCTIONS: • CONTROL NEURAL RESPONSES TO STIMULI
• GENERATE NEW INFORMATION FROM LONG TERM MEMORY
• PRIORITIZE OPERATION OF OTHER BRAIN AREAS

ADHD and EF
• ADHD is a disorder of Executive Function (Barkley)
![Page 18: THE NEUROTOXICOLOGY OF ATTENTION DEFICITS](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56814743550346895db4803b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
SOME FEATURES OF EXECUTIVE FUNCTION
• Decision as to just what the problem is that needs to be solved• Selection of lower-order components• Selection of one or more representations of organizations for
information• Selection of a strategy for combining lower order components• Decision regarding tradeoffs in the speed and accuracies with
which various components are executed• Solution monitoring
STERNBERG, 1985
![Page 19: THE NEUROTOXICOLOGY OF ATTENTION DEFICITS](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56814743550346895db4803b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
BRIEF DEFINITIONS OF EXECUTIVE FUNCTION
• Processes used to plan, monitor and revise strategies of information processing (STERNBERG. 1985)
• Appropriate set maintenance to achieve a future goal (PENNINGTON, WELSH & GROSSIER, 1990)
• A process which enables the brain to function as many machines in one, setting and resetting itself dozens of times in the course of a day, now for one type of operation, now for another (SPERRY, 1955)
• A process that alters the probability of subsequent responses to an event, thereby altering the probability of later consequences (Barkley, 1997).

Attention deficits associated with prenatal
stimulant exposure

Journal of Attention Disorders, 2000, 4, 5-13.
![Page 26: THE NEUROTOXICOLOGY OF ATTENTION DEFICITS](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56814743550346895db4803b/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
PRENATAL STIMULANT EXPOSURE: TOXIC MECHANISM (COCAINE)
• cocaine crosses placenta,affecting fetal dopaminergic and serotonergic systems, which play key roles in regulating attention and arousal.
• Cocaine permanently alters development of DA-innervated cortical areas, predominantly the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) – Long lasting structural and functional changes in
the ACC– ADHD imaging studies shown ACC
dysmorphology (Filipek et al., 1997)
![Page 27: THE NEUROTOXICOLOGY OF ATTENTION DEFICITS](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56814743550346895db4803b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
PRENATAL STIMULANT EXPOSURE: TOXIC MECHANISM (AMPHETAMINE)
• Amphetamine crosses placenta, affecting fetal dopaminergic and serotonergic systems, which play key roles in regulating attention and arousal.
• Target areas for toxic effects are catecholaminergic
• The precise mechanism of toxicity is somewhat different from cocaine
• More evidence of permanent damage to neurons (Seiden and Kleven, 1988).

MECHANISMS OF Mn-INDUCED NEUROTOXICITY
Autoxidation of dopamine Catalysis of toxic catecholamines, e.g., 6-
hydroxydopamine Free radicals, e.g., O2
. and OH*
• Mn2+ oxidation Mn3+ Lipid peroxidation of membranes NMDA excitotoxic process Aberrant neuronal sprouting Compensatory imbalances among basal ganglia nuclei
– caudate– putamen– globus pallidus.
Calcium metabolism synaptic transmission O-methyl transferase activity homovanillic acid
![Page 72: THE NEUROTOXICOLOGY OF ATTENTION DEFICITS](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56814743550346895db4803b/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
RESULTS OF Mn-INDUCED NEUROTOXICITY
• Major feature of Mn is its ready transformation into several oxidative states
• 2H+ + O2. + Mn2+ H2O2 + Mn3+
• Neurotoxic effect of Mn stems from aberrations of regulatory role
• Chemical constituents of particular brain regions favor formation of higher valency Mn--lesions tend to occur in these areas– substantia nigra– globus pallidus– putamen
![Page 73: THE NEUROTOXICOLOGY OF ATTENTION DEFICITS](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56814743550346895db4803b/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
HOW COULD MN NEUROTOXICITY OCCUR?
MN HOMEOSTASIS IS ABSENT IN INFANTS
MATERNAL BREAST MILK HAS RELATIVELY SMALL LEVELS OF MN
INFANT FORMULA, ESPECIALLY SOY-BASED FORMULA, IS VERY HIGH IN MN

IS NEONATAL MN EXPOSURE AN ETIOLOGIC AGENT IN ADHD?
•CHILDREN WITH ADHD HAVE HIGH LEVELS OF HEAD HAIR MN
•MN IS A KNOWN NEUROTOXIN
•MN TOXICITY AFFECTS BRAIN DOPAMINE SYSTEMS
•ADHD IS A PRIMARILY DOPAMINERGIC DISORDER
•BRAIN AREAS AFFECTED BY MN TOXICITY HAVE EXTENSIVE ANATOMICAL AND NEUROCHEMICAL OVERLAP WITH SYSTEMS SHOWN TO BE DYSFUNCTIONAL IN ADHD
![Page 77: THE NEUROTOXICOLOGY OF ATTENTION DEFICITS](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56814743550346895db4803b/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
PATTERNS OF NEONATAL NUTRITION
Prolonged bottle feeding is directly correlated with iron-deficiency anemia.
Anemic animals will absorb more excessive amounts of Mn.
Furthermore, infants are slow to develop Mn homeostasis.
Thus there is a combination of low Fe-High Mn absorption in formula fed infants, especially fed soy formula.
Breast-feeding has declined significantly since 1900
