Abstract

Background Levels of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) are regulated in the noradrenergic locus coeruleus (LC) in response to changes in the activity of LC neurons and in response to changes in brain levels of norepinephrine. To study the potential role of central noradrenergic neurons in the pathobiology of major depression, TH protein was measured in the LC from postmortem brains of 13 subjects with a diagnosis of major depression and 13 age-matched control subjects having no Axis I psychiatric diagnosis. Most of the major depressive subjects died as a result of suicide.Methods Protein from sections cut through multiple rostro-caudal levels of LC was transferred to Immobilon-P membrane, immunoblotted for TH, and quantified autoradiographically.Results The distribution of TH-immunoreactivity (TH-ir) along the rostro-caudal axis of the LC was uneven and was paralleled by a similar uneven distribution of neuromelanin-containing cells in both major depressive and psychiatrically normal control subjects. Amounts of TH-ir in the rostral, middle and caudal levels of the LC from major depressive subjects were significantly higher than that of matched control subjects. There were no significant differences in the number of noradrenergic cells at any particular level of the LC comparing major depressive subjects to control subjects.Conclusions Elevated expression of TH in the LC in major depression implies a premortem overactivity of these neurons, or a deficiency of the cognate transmitter, norepinephrine.

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.
