Cell atrophy and loss in depression: reversal by antidepressant treatment
Open accessAbstract
Depression is associated with structural alterations in limbic brain regions that control emotion and mood. Studies of chronic stress in animal models and postmortem tissue from depressed subjects demonstrate that these structural alterations result from atrophy and loss of neurons and glial cells. These findings indicate that depression and stress-related mood disorders can be considered mild neurodegenerative disorders. Importantly, there is evidence that these structural alterations can be blocked or even reversed by elimination of stress and by antidepressant treatments. A major focus of current investigations is to characterize the molecular signaling pathways and factors that underlie these effects of stress, depression, and antidepressant treatment. Recent advances in this research area are discussed and potential novel targets for antidepressant development are highlighted.

Reported mechanisms potentially underlying cell loss include glutamate/glutamine cycling, blunted neurogenesis, decreased neurotrophic factor expression, and upregulation of pro-apoptotic pathways.
“Currently, reported mechanisms potentially underlying cell loss include, but are not limited to, glutamate/glutamine cycling (see section on Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms of Neuroplasticity), blunted neurogenesis, decreased neurotrophic factor expression and upregulation of pro-apoptotic pathways72.”

These effects were reversed by riluzole, a glutamate modulating drug known to enhance glial glutamate transport. The authors suggest that targeting glial dysfunction represents a novel approach for antidepressant drug development.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
