The present resting-state fMRI study examined the developmental effect of prenatal cocaine exposure (PCE) on functional connectivity in brain networks associated with amygdala (emotion) and left dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex (cognitive functions). The data reflected an improved capacity for stress coping and network segregation in typical development, but this improvement is compromised by PCE. The present results provide further and direct evidence supporting the view of PCE associated long-term effect on arousal regulation.
