Neurocognitive Underpinning of Neurological Disorders: Role of Default Mode Network

Abstract

Over the past few decades, the brain’s default mode network (DMN), consisting of a constellation of brain regions active during rest, has been associated with many neurological disorders. However, this network has recently shown activation during high-order social cognitive tasks attributed to self-referential processing and theory of mind. Furthermore, in several disorders with deficits in social cognition, or disrupted physiology including autism spectrum disorder (ASD), Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, hormonal cancer, and strikingly aberrant patterns of brain activity have been observed in certain cortical regions overlapping the DMN. This suggests that DNM overlaps the social brain network extensively involved in social cognitive processes and is often compromised in brain disorders. Here, we explore how an altered DMN may be plausibly extended as an indicator of neurological disorders.
