MiR-335 is involved in major depression disorder and antidepressant treatment through targeting GRM4
Abstract
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a prevalent mood disorder. Treatment of MDD includes a variety of biopsychosocial approaches. Glutamate receptor, metabotropic 4 (GRM4) has been implicated in the regulation of MDD and it is seen as an attractive target for drug discovery and development. Here we reported using cellular assays and blood samples from MDD patients and showed that miR-335 was downregulated in individuals with depression compared with healthy controls. Additionally, we confirmed that miR-335 can directly target GRM4, which can further regulated the expression of miR-335. Antidepressant drug treatment with citalopram can upregulate miR-335 expression and downregulate GRM4 expression. These results suggest that miR-335 is associated with the pathophysiology of depression and is a potential target for new antidepressant treatments.

miR-335, miR-1202, miR-29b-3p, and miR-134-5p may regulate depression through inhibiting GRM4 expression, affecting Ca2+ influx into prefrontal cortex neurons and extracellular glutamate concentration.
“MiR-335, miR-1202, miR-29b-3p, and miR-134-5p may regulate depression through inhibiting the expression of GRM4 gene (Fig. 5), that in turn affect the influx of Ca2+ into the prefrontal cortex neurons and the extracellular concentration of glutamate.277–283”

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.
