Multiple serotonergic paths to antidepressant efficacy.

نویسنده

  • Pierre-Eric Lutz
چکیده

Depression is a leading cause of disability worldwide. Brain mechanisms underlying the clinical antidepressant efficacy of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI), currently the first-line treatment, remain poorly understood. Recent animal studies have implicated multiple serotonin receptor subtypes in SSRI response, opening new therapeutic perspectives.

Hydroethanolic extract of Carthamus tinctorius induces antidepressant-like effects: modulation by dopaminergic and serotonergic systems in tail suspension test in mice

Objective(s): Studies indicate that major deficiency in the levels of monoaminergic transmitters is a reason for severe depression. On the other hand, it is shown that Carthamus tinctorius L. (CT) may improve neuropsychological injuries by regulation of the monoamine transporter action. Hence, the present study was undertaken to evaluate the involvement of monoaminergic systems in antidepressan...

Behavioral and Biochemical Evidences for Antidepressant-Like Activity of Celastrus Paniculatus Seed Oil in Mice

Introduction: Celastrus paniculatus seed oil, commonly known as Malkangni or Jyotishmati, was in use from time immemorial to treat brain related disorders. Celastrus paniculatus seed oil has significant antidepressant-like activity in chronic unpredictable stressed mice. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the antidepressant-like effect of Celastrus paniculatus seed oil ...

Serotonergic and noradrenergic systems are implicated in the antidepressant-like effect of ursolic acid in mice

Ursolic acid (UA) is a natural pentacyclic triterpenoid carboxylic acid that exerts antidepressant-like effects in the tail suspension test (TST) and in the forced swimming test, and this effect was reported to be mediated by the dopaminergic system. Many studies show that currently available antidepressant agents have effects on multiple neurotransmitter systems which account for their efficac...

Assessing the Neuronal Serotonergic Target-based Antidepressant Stratagem: Impact of In Vivo Interaction Studies and Knockout Models

Depression remains a challenge in the field of affective neuroscience, despite a steady research progress. Six out of nine basic antidepressant mechanisms rely on serotonin neurotransmitter system. Preclinical studies have demonstrated the significance of serotonin receptors (5-HT(1-3,6,7)), its signal transduction pathways and classical down stream targets (including neurotrophins, neurokinins...
