INTRODUCTION: Major Depression Disorder (MDD) and pain appear to be reciprocal risk factors and sharing common neuroanatomical pathways and biological substrates. However, the role of MDD on pain processing remains still unclear. Therefore, this review aims to focus on the effect of depression on pain anticipation, and perception, before and after treatment, through functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
METHODS: A bibliographic search was conducted on PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science, looking for fMRI studies exploring pain processing in MDD patients.
RESULTS: Amongst the 602 studies retrieved, 12 met the inclusion criteria. In terms of pain perception, studies evidenced that MDD patients generally presented increased activation in brain regions within the prefrontal cortex, insula and in the limbic system (such as amygdala, hippocampus) and occipital cortex. The studies investigating the effect of antidepressant treatment evidenced a reduced activation in areas such as insula, anterior cingulate, and prefrontal cortices. In terms of pain anticipation, contrasting results were evidenced in MDD patients, which presented both increased and decreased activity in the prefrontal cortex, the insula and the temporal lobe, alongside with increased activity in the anterior cingulate cortex, the frontal gyrus and occipital lobes.
LIMITATIONS: The small number of included studies, the heterogeneous approaches of the studies might limit the conclusions of this review.
CONCLUSIONS: Acute pain processing in MDD patients seems to involve numerous and different brain areas. However, more specific fMRI studies with a more homogeneous population and rigorous approach should be conducted to better highlight the effect of depression on pain processing.
