Chronic stress followed by social isolation promotes depressive-like behaviour, alters microglial and astrocyte biology and reduces hippocampal neurogenesis in male mice

Andrea Du Preez et al.

Summary: The study found that the UCMSI model induced depression-like behavioral changes without causing peripheral inflammation. UCMSI animals showed decreased neurogenesis and increased activation of microglial and astrocyte in the hippocampus, as well as a smaller increase in corticosterone levels following acute stress.

Tolerance-inducing effect and properties of innate immune stimulation on chronic stress-induced behavioral abnormalities in mice

Yue Gu et al.

Summary: The study found that injecting the innate immune enhancer LPS can prevent behavioral abnormalities induced by chronic social defeat stress in mice, with the optimal effect observed at specific doses and time points. Additionally, innate immune stimulation can alter neuroinflammatory responses in the brain, and inhibiting central innate immune response can eliminate the tolerance-inducing effect of LPS preconditioning.

Unfolding the Role of BDNF as a Biomarker for Treatment of Depression

Tarapati Rana et al.

Summary: This article aims to provide insights into the role of BDNF in the pathogenesis of depression and antidepressant therapy. Studies have shown that BDNF plays a crucial role in the development and treatment of depression, and increasing BDNF levels through antidepressants can alleviate depressive symptoms and behaviors.

Antidepressant drugs act by directly binding to TRKB neurotrophin receptors

Plinio C. Casarotto et al.

Summary: The study reveals that antidepressant drugs bind directly to the TRKB receptor, facilitating its activation at the synapse and potentially explaining the mechanism behind antidepressant action.

GW117: A novel serotonin (5-HT2C) receptor antagonist and melatonin (MT1/MT2) receptor agonist with potential antidepressant-like activity in rodents

Nana Gao et al.

Summary: The study suggests that GW117 functions as a serotonin 2C (5-HT2C) receptor antagonist and melatonin type 1 and 2 (MT1/MT2) receptor agonist, showing evident antidepressant and anxiolytic effects.

Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Signaling in Depression and Antidepressant Action

Eero Castren et al.

Summary: Neurotrophic factors, especially BDNF, are associated with depression and the action of antidepressant drugs, with impaired BDNF signaling linked to mood disorders. Increased BDNF expression and signaling have been linked to the mechanisms of antidepressant drugs, and BDNF regulates various types of neuronal plasticities in the brain, which are connected to antidepressant action. The hypothesis of a connection between neurotrophic factors and neuronal plasticity with mood disorders and antidepressant action has been further supported by recent evidence.

Brief postpartum separation from offspring promotes resilience to lipopolysaccharide challenge-induced anxiety and depressive-like behaviors and inhibits neuroinflammation in C57BL/6J dams

Zuotian Wu et al.

Summary: The study showed that brief maternal separation from offspring can enhance resilience to immune challenge-induced behavioral deficits in mothers and inhibit neuroinflammation. This demonstrates the complex interplay between mothers and offspring in response to stressors.
