BDNF Overexpression in the Prelimbic Cortex Does Not Reduce Anxiety- and Depression-like Behavior in Serotonin Knockout Rats

2020-07-01

Abstract excerpt

Depressive disorders are one of the leading causes of non-fatal health loss in the last decade. Adding to the burden, the available treatments not always properly work for some individuals. There is, therefore, a constant effort from clinical and preclinical studies to bring forward a better understanding of the disease and look for novel alternative therapies. Two target systems very well explored are the seroton...
