Unified divergent strategy towards the total synthesis of the three sub-classes of hasubanan alkaloids

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Guang Li

Elegant asymmetric synthesis of hasubanan alkaloids have been developed over the past decades. However, a divergent approach leading to all three sub-classes of this family of natural products remains unknown. We report herein the realization of such an en ...

Metabolic signature in nucleus accumbens for anti-depressant-like effects of acetyl-L-carnitine

Rolf Gruetter, Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Jocelin Grosse, João Pedro de Matos Rodrigues, Antoine Timothée Cherix, Thomas Didier Larrieu

Emerging evidence suggests that hierarchical status provide vulnerability to develop stress-induced depression. Energy metabolic changes in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) were recently related to hierarchical status and vulnerability to develop depression-lik ...

Mice with ablated adult brain neurogenesis are not impaired in antidepressant response to chronic fluoxetine

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez

The neurogenesis hypothesis of major depression has two main facets. One states that the illness results from decreased neurogenesis while the other claims that the very functioning of antidepressants depends on increased neurogenesis. In order to verify t ...

Regulation of Neurotrophic Factors and Energy Metabolism by Antidepressants in Astrocytes

Pierre Magistretti, Jean-Luc Martin, Igor Allaman

There is growing evidence that astrocytes are involved in the neuropathology of major depression. In particular, decreases in glial cell density observed in the cerebral cortex of individuals with major depressive disorder are accompanied by a reduction of ...

Fluoxetine regulates the expression of neurotrophic/growth factors and glucose metabolism in astrocytes

Pierre Magistretti, Jean-Luc Martin, Igor Allaman

RATIONALE: The pharmacological actions of most antidepressants are ascribed to the modulation of serotonergic and/or noradrenergic transmission in the brain. During therapeutic treatment for major depression, fluoxetine, one of the most commonly prescribed ...

Role of the amygdala in antidepressant effects on hippocampal cell proliferation and survival and on depression-like behavior in the rat

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Maria Isabel Cordero Campana, Guillaume Poirier, Cristina Marquez Vega, Jorge Eduardo Castro Cifuentes

The stimulation of adult hippocampal neurogenesis by antidepressants has been associated with multiple molecular pathways, but the potential influence exerted by other brain areas has received much less attention. The basolateral complex of the amygdala (B ...
