Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The precise mechanism of major depressive disorder (MDD) is poorly understood. On the basis of the neurotrophin hypothesis, initial findings from our previous studies, and the functions of epidermal growth factor (EGF) in the central nervous system, we proposed that EGF might contribut...
