抑郁症是一种复杂的疾病,其潜在的分子机制尚不清楚.

研究的目的:

通过使用慢性压力模型和SARM1淘汰赛 (KO) 小鼠,研究SARM1在类似抑郁的行为中的作用.
阐明涉及SARM1介导抑郁的分子机制,包括线粒体功能,炎症和信号通路.

主要方法:

行为测试 (开放场测试,强迫游泳测试,糖偏好测试,尾部悬浮测试) 来评估类似抑郁的表型.
通过ELISA和西部涂抹分析线粒体能量代谢 (NAD +,ATP),细胞因子水平和信号蛋白 (AMPK,eEF2).
使用AICAR (AMPK激活剂),化合物C (AMPK抑制剂) 和NH125 (eEF2激酶抑制剂) 的药理干预.

主要成果:

SARM1 KO小鼠表现出类似抑郁的行为和改变皮质线粒体能量代谢 (NAD +,ATP).
由于SARM1的枯竭引起了外周炎症 (血细胞因子升高),而不是中心炎症.
在SARM1 KO小鼠中观察到皮层能量代谢失调,AMPK信号传递和突触可塑性.
在SARM1KO小鼠中,AICAR和NH125治疗改善了类似抑郁的行为和突触功能障碍,而C化合物则逆转了这些影响.

Long-term Depression

Long-term Depression

Long-term depression, or LTD, is one of the ways by which synaptic plasticity—changes in the strength of chemical synapses—can occur in the brain. LTD is the process of synaptic weakening that occurs over time between pre and postsynaptic neuronal connections. The synaptic weakening of LTD works in opposition to synaptic strengthening by long-term potentiation (LTP) and together are the main mechanisms that underlie learning and memory.

G-protein Coupled Receptors

G-protein Coupled Receptors

G-protein coupled receptors are ligand binding receptors that indirectly affect changes in the cell. The actual receptor is a single polypeptide that transverses the cell membrane seven times creating intracellular and extracellular loops. The extracellular loops create a ligand specific pocket which binds to neurotransmitters or hormones. The intracellular loops holds onto the G-protein.

PI3K/mTOR/AKT Signaling Pathway

PI3K/mTOR/AKT Signaling Pathway

The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates growth, proliferation, and cell survival in response to hormones, growth factors, or nutrient availability. This kinase exists in two structurally and functionally distinct forms: mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) and mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2). The first form (mTORC1) is composed of a rapamycin-sensitive Raptor and proline-rich Akt substrate, PRAS40. In contrast, mTORC2 consists of a...
