This study aims to explore the appetite effect on taste and depression on healthy adolescents using Arterial Spin Labeling. Fifteen participants complete the Multiscore Depression Inventory for Children test and two MRI sessions: pre-lunch (hunger) and post-lunch (satiety). We found an increased CBF – cerebral blood flow – during hunger in the posterior insula (anticipation and motivation of feeding) and during satiation in the precuneus, lingual gyrus and cuneus (inhibition pattern of food intake). We show that the correlations between depression and CBF are modulated by appetite in the precuneus, operculum, lingual, cuneus, middle frontal gyrus and inferior parietal lobule.
