C-Reactive Protein as a Biomarker for Major Depressive Disorder?

Laura Orsolini et al.

Summary: This study reviewed the literature on the association between C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and depression. Evidence suggested dysregulation in the inflammation system in individuals with depression, with higher blood CRP levels being associated with greater symptom severity and worse treatment response. Some depressed patients showed a low-grade inflammatory state, suggesting a distinct subgroup within major depressive disorder.

Gut Microbiota Metabolites in Major Depressive Disorder-Deep Insights into Their Pathophysiological Role and Potential Translational Applications

Miguel A. Ortega et al.

Summary: The gut microbiota is crucial for the functioning of the organism and can impact the brain through the production of various metabolites, contributing to conditions like MDD. Further research is needed to fully understand the role of microbial metabolites in neuropsychiatric disorders.

The Role of the Microbiome-Brain-Gut Axis in the Pathogenesis of Depressive Disorder

Ewelina Mlynarska et al.

Summary: This review investigates the impact of gut microbiota on the development of depression and the underlying molecular mechanisms. There are two possible pathways in which this interaction might occur, one suggesting that depressive disorder could lead to dysbiosis and the other considering if changes in gut microbiota might cause depressive disorder. The mechanisms responsible for this interaction include the secretion of neurotransmitters, gut peptides, and the activation of the immune system. However, more research is needed to explore the direct mechanisms of the interaction between gut microbiota and mental health.

Molecular Basis Underlying the Therapeutic Potential of Vitamin D for the Treatment of Depression and Anxiety

Bruna R. Kouba et al.

Summary: Major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders are common and disabling conditions. Symptoms of depression and anxiety often overlap, making diagnosis and treatment challenging. Vitamin D deficiency is associated with increased risk of these disorders, and vitamin D has potential antidepressant and anxiolytic effects.

Recognizing the role of the vagus nerve in depression from microbiota-gut brain axis

Chaoren Tan et al.

Summary: Depression is a worldwide disease that causes severe disability, morbidity, and mortality. Recent research suggests that a disturbance of the microbiota-gut-brain axis may play a vital role in the etiology of depression, with the vagus nerve playing a critical role in the bidirectional communication of this axis.

Overlapping Mechanisms of Action of Brain-Active Bacteria and Bacterial Metabolites in the Pathogenesis of Common Brain Diseases

Tanja Patricia Eicher et al.

Summary: This article discusses the impact of the microbiota-gut-brain axis on the pathophysiology of seven brain-related diseases, highlighting changes in bacterial abundance and the metabolic implications, and indicating that all seven diseases are associated with a leaky gut, neuroinflammation, and over-activated microglial cells.

T cell receptor repertoires within liver allografts are different to those in the peripheral blood

Young-Seon Mederacke et al.

Summary: This study compared TCR repertoires between liver grafts and blood in liver transplant recipients with different rejection statuses. The results revealed that donor-specific T cells clonally expanded and accumulated in the transplanted liver, with distinct TCR repertoires between the liver and peripheral blood. This highlights the importance of conducting protocol liver biopsies to investigate intragraft immune responses for allo-directed immune responses.

Differentiating Depression From Demoralization in Organ Transplantation Recipients

Mary Rzeszut et al.

Summary: Living with end stage organ failure and transplantation can have significant implications on physiological, psychological, and social well-being. Anxiety and depressive disorders are common, with demoralization being a distinct psychological syndrome that involves losing hope, courage, or confidence. It is important to distinguish between demoralization and depression in order to provide more effective psychological support for organ transplant patients.

Mechanisms underlying antidepressant effect of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation on CUMS model rats based on hippocampal α7nAchR/NF-κB signal pathway

Jun-ying Wang et al.

Summary: The anti-inflammatory signal of the vagus nerve mediated by alpha 7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (alpha 7nAchR) plays a critical role in the antidepressant effect of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS). The hippocampus region regulates emotions and has the most distribution of alpha 7nAchR, indicating its involvement in the taVNS antidepressant effect.

Vitamin D and the Risks of Depression and Anxiety: An Observational Analysis and Genome-Wide Environment Interaction Study

Zhen Zhang et al.

Summary: This study in the UK Biobank cohort found significant associations between vitamin D and depression as well as anxiety, with gene x vitamin D interactions affecting the risk of these psychiatric disorders. Multiple candidate genes interacting with vitamin D were identified, providing new insights into the biological mechanisms underlying the potential associations between vitamin D and mental health disorders.

Proteomics analysis of the gut-brain axis in a gut microbiota-dysbiosis model of depression

Yiyun Liu et al.

Summary: Recent research suggests that the gut microbiota may play a role in the onset of depression through the gut-brain axis, although the exact mechanism remains unclear. This study transplanted gut microbiota from MDD patients into germ-free mice to induce depression-like behaviors, resulting in altered protein expression levels in multiple tissues of the gut-brain axis. Gene ontology analysis indicated that changes in the protein network primarily involved metabolic processes and inflammatory responses.

The gut microbiota in anxiety and depression - A systematic review

Carra A. Simpson et al.

Summary: The gut microbiota is associated with anxiety and depressive disorders, with inconsistent findings in diversity but potential links to peripheral inflammation influencing the brain's pathophysiology. Future research should consider confounders like diet and medications, and investigate microorganism function.
