We Atomoxetine have previously shown that long-term powdered diet feeding in mice increases spontaneous locomotor activity Methylphenidate and social interaction (SI) time. Moreover, that diet causes changes in the dopaminergic system, especially PD168077 increased dopamine turnover and decreased dopamine D4 receptor signals in the frontal cortex. Although the Anxiety-related behavior increased SI time indicates low anxiety, the elevated plus maze (EPM) test shows anxiety-related behavior and Low anxiety impulsive behavior. In this study, we investigated whether the powdered diet feeding causes changes in anxiety- Bicuculline Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder related behavior. Mice fed a powdered diet for 17 weeks from weaning were compared with mice fed a standard diet (control).

  • Corticotropin Releasing Hormone Receptor CRHR1 Gene Is
    Ramoz et al. Translational Psychiatry (2020) 10:378 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41398-020-01067-y Translational Psychiatry ARTICLE Open Access Corticotropin releasing hormone receptor CRHR1 gene is associated with tianeptine antidepressant response in a large sample of outpatients from real-life settings Nicolas Ramoz 1,NicolasHoertel1,2,3, Bénédicte Nobile 4, Géraldine Voegeli1,5, Ariane Nasr1, Yann Le Strat1,6, Philippe Courtet 4 and Philip Gorwood1,5 Abstract Polymorphisms of genes involved in the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenocortical (HPA) axis have been associated with response to several antidepressant treatments in patients suffering of depression. These pharmacogenetics findings have been reported from independent cohorts of patients mostly treated with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, tricyclic antidepressant, and mirtazapine. Tianeptine, an atypical antidepressant, recently identified as a mu opioid receptor agonist, which prevents and reverses the stress induced by glucocorticoids, has been investigated in this present pharmacogenetics study. More than 3200 Caucasian outpatients with a major depressive episode (MDE) from real-life settings were herein analyzed for clinical response to tianeptine, a treatment initiated from 79.5% of the subjects, during 6–8 weeks follow-up, assessing polymorphisms targeting four genes involved in the HPA axis (NR3C1, FKPB5, CRHR1, and AVPR1B). We found a significant association (p < 0.001) between CRHR1 gene variants rs878886 and 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; rs16940665, or haplotype rs878886*C–rs16940665*T, and tianeptine antidepressant response and remission according to the hospital anxiety and depression scale. Analyses, including a structural equation model with simple mediation, suggest a moderate effect of sociodemographic characteristics and depressive disorder features on treatment response in individuals carrying the antidepressant responder allele rs8788861 (allele C).

    Psychiatria Danubina, 2017; Vol. 29, Suppl. 3, pp 667-671 Conference paper © Medicinska naklada - Zagreb, Croatia ANTIDEPRESSANTS IN USE IN CLINICAL PRACTICE Mark Agius1 & Hannah Bonnici2 1Clare College, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK 2Hospital Pharmacy St. James Hospital Malta, Malta SUMMARY The object of this paper, rather than producing new information, is to produce a useful vademecum for doctors prescribing antidepressants, with the information useful for their being prescribed. Antidepressants need to be seen as part of a package of treatment for the patient with depression which also includes psychological treatments and social interventions. Here the main Antidepressant groups, including the Selective Serotonin uptake inhibiters, the tricyclics and other classes are described, together with their mode of action, side effects, dosages. Usually antidepressants should be prescribed for six months to treat a patient with depression. The efficacy of anti-depressants is similar between classes, despite their different mechanisms of action. The choice is therefore based on the side-effects to be avoided. There is no one ideal drug capable of exerting its therapeutic effects without any adverse effects. Increasing knowledge of what exactly causes depression will enable researchers not only to create more effective antidepressants rationally but also to understand the limitations of existing drugs. Key words: antidepressants – depression - psychological therapies - social therapies * * * * * Introduction Monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors í Non-selective Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors Depression may be defined as a mood disorder that í Selective Monoamine Oxidase Type A inhibitors negatively and persistently affects the way a person feels, thinks and acts. Common signs include low mood, Atypical Anti-Depressants and other classes changes in appetite and sleep patterns and loss of inte- rest in activities that were once enjoyable.

  • Molecular Profile of Dissociative Drug Ketamine in Relation to Its Rapid Antidepressant Action
    Ficek et al. BMC Genomics (2016) 17:362 DOI 10.1186/s12864-016-2713-3 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Molecular profile of dissociative drug ketamine in relation to its rapid antidepressant action Joanna Ficek, Magdalena Zygmunt, Marcin Piechota, Dzesika Hoinkis, Jan Rodriguez Parkitna, Ryszard Przewlocki and Michal Korostynski* Abstract Background: The NMDA receptor antagonist ketamine was found to act as a fast-acting antidepressant. The effects of single treatment were reported to persist for days to weeks, even in otherwise treatment-refractory cases. Identification of the mechanisms underlying ketamine’s antidepressant action may permit development of novel drugs, with similar clinical properties but lacking psychotomimetic, sedative and other side effects. Methods: We applied whole-genome microarray profiling to analyze detailed time-course (1, 2, 4 and 8 h) of transcriptome alterations in the striatum and hippocampus following acute administration of ketamine, memantine and phencyclidine in C57BL/6 J mice. The transcriptional effects of ketamine were further analyzed using next-generation sequencing and quantitative PCR. Gene expression alterations induced by the NMDA antagonists were compared to the molecular profiles of psychotropic drugs: antidepressants, antipsychotics, anxiolytics, psychostimulants and opioids. Results: We identified 52 transcripts (e.g. Dusp1, Per1 and Fkbp5) with altered expression (FDR < 1 %) in response to treatment with NMDA receptor antagonists. Functional links that connect expression of the regulated genes to the MAPK, IL-6 and insulin signaling pathways were indicated. Moreover, ketamine-regulated expression of specific gene isoforms was detected (e.g. Tsc22d3, Sgk1 and Hif3a). The comparison with other psychotropic drugs revealed that the molecular effects of ketamine are most similar to memantine and phencyclidine.
