摘要:

很多研究中显示,转录因子环磷腺苷反应元件结合蛋白(CREB)与抑郁症的发病机制和治疗相关。CREB是多种抗抑郁药作用过程的交汇点。长期服用抗抑郁药可以提升脑内海马CREB水平及活性,在动物模型中海马部位CREB水平和活性升高可产生抗抑郁药的效应。而在其他某些脑区内提升CREB水平则会导致类抑郁行为。该文就CREB与抑郁症发病机制和抗抑郁药起效机制的相关研究进行综述。

Abstract:

The transcription factor cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) has been implicated in relevant for pathogenesis and therapy of depression in many studies. CREB is involved in the molecular and cellular mechanism of chronic antidepressant treatment, and serves as a convergence point for multiple classes of antidepressant drugs. CREB is upregulated and activated in the hippocampus by treatment with chronic antidepressants. Increasing CREB levels in the hippocampus of rodent models results in antidepressive effects. However, increasing CREB levels in some other brain regions leads to depression-like behaviors. In this article, the roles of CREB in the pathogenesis of depression and in mediating effects of antidepressant treatment are reviewed.

Key words: cAMP response element-binding protein, depression, antidepressants
