Neuroactive steroids in depression and anxiety disorders: Clinical studies [PDF]

, 2006
Certain neuroactive steroids modulate ligand-gated ion channels via non-genomic mechanisms. Especially 3 alpha-reduced pregnane steroids are potent positive allosteric modulators of the gamma-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA(A)) receptor.

Prescribing competence: The pros and cons of different methods for assessment

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Evaluating a medical graduate’s competence in rational prescribing is challenging. With the aim to guide and inspire teachers, this narrative review explores different methods that can be used to assess prescribing competence. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages, and thus a mix of different assessment methods is needed throughout the ...

Yeast supplementation potentiates fluoxetine's anti-depressant effect in mice via modulation of oxido-inflammatory, CREB, and MAPK signaling pathways

Current Research in Physiology
Introduction: The therapeutic potential of yeast in the management of depression is unknown. Thus, we evaluated the modulatory effect of nutritional yeast supplementation on antidepressant activity of fluoxetine in mice models of depressive-like ...

Biphasic Regulation of Caveolin-1 Gene Expression by Fluoxetine in Astrocytes: Opposite Effects of PI3K/AKT and MAPK/ERK Signaling Pathways on c-fos

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2017
Previously, we reported that fluoxetine acts on 5-HT2B receptor and induces epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) transactivation in astrocytes. Recently, we have found that chronic treatment with fluoxetine regulates Caveolin-1 (Cav-1)/PTEN/PI3K/AKT ...

Fluoxetine inhibited the activation of A1 reactive astrocyte in a mouse model of major depressive disorder through astrocytic 5-HT2BR/β-arrestin2 pathway

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2022
Background Fluoxetine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, has been reported to directly bind with 5-HT2B receptor (5-HT2BR), but the precise mechanisms, whereby fluoxetine confers the anti-depressive actions via 5-HT2BR is not fully understood ...

5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) cellular sequestration during chronic exposure delays 5-HT₃ receptor resensitization due to Its subsequent release [PDF]

, 2014
The serotonergic synapse is dynamically regulated by serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT)) with elevated levels leading to the down-regulation of the serotonin transporter and a variety of 5-HT receptors, including the 5-HT type-3 (5-HT(3)) receptors ...

Antidepressants and the risk of hyponatremia: A multi‐institutional cohort study using observational medical outcomes partnership—Common Data Model

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Hyponatremia is a common yet potentially serious adverse event associated with antidepressants. Identifying the antidepressant class with the least risk of hyponatremia would improve patient safety. Methods Using electronic medical records from 15 hospitals standardized into Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership Common Data Model (2003–2023 ...
