DHEA and response to antidepressant treatment: A Mendelian Randomization analysis
Treatment response is hard to predict and detailed mechanisms unknown. Lower levels of the dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate (DHEA(S)) - a precursor to testosterone and estrogen - have been associated to depression and to response to antidepressant treatment. Previous studies however may have been ridden by confounding and reverse causation.
