Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) may be a downstream target of a variety of antidepressant treatments, and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are used clinically for the treatment of depression. BDNF binds to and activates tyrosine kinases receptor (TrkB) to exert its effects. TrkB, after activation by ligands, stimulates phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). This study demonstrates that fluvoxamine treatment rapidly increased phosphorylation of Akt-1. And BDNF activated Akt-1 phosphorylation by the TrkB/ PI3K/Akt-1 pathway. We conclude that the phosphorylation of Akt-1, downstream of PI3K, was the key to their antidepressant effects. We developed the milnaciplan, SNRI, resistant HT22 cell, and detected the changed protein by the proteomics method. We detected some proteins, tRNA ligase, glucose-regulated protein, histone-binding protein compared with control.
