Project description:<p>Depression is an individual risk factor for poor prognosis in patients with heart failure (HF). Recent studies show that gut microbiota and metabolites have critical role in comorbid HF and depressive symptoms. We recruited 95 subjects including 35 HF patients with depressive symptoms (HF-DS), 36 HF patients without depressive symptoms (HF-NDS) and 24 healthy controls (HC). The 16S rRNA, metagenome sequencing and untargeted metabolomic analysis were employed to test fecal samples. Our analysis found there was a significant difference composition of gut microbiota in HF-DS, HF-NDS and HC populations. At the genus level, Mediterranea, Tolumona and Parabacteroides were significantly increased in HF-DS patients compared with HF-NDS patients, while Pedobacter, Azospirillum and Ruminiclostridium were significantly decreased. Furthermore, anti-inflammatory mediators (abietic acid, quinic acid, linoleic acid, etc) and neurotransmitters (catechin, serotonin, tryptamine, phenylethylamine, etc) were reduced in HF-DS. The enrichment analysis revealed that the gut microbiota highly conformed with the functional pathways of metabolites, and amino acid-related metabolism, fatty acid-related metabolism and cAMP signaling pathways may be crucial biological mechanisms involved in the development of comorbid depression and HF. Finally, Cloacibacillus and alpha-tocopherol were determined as diagnostic markers for HF-DS patients.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>IMPORTANCE:</strong> There is increasing evidence that alterations in gut microbial composition and function are associated with cardiovascular or psychiatric disease. Therefore, it is meaningful to investigate the taxonomic and functional characterization of the microbiota in HF patients who also have depressive symptoms. In this cross-sectional study, Cloacibacillus and alpha-tocopherol were determined as new diagnostic markers. Furthermore, intestinal microecosystem disorders are closely linked to depressive symptoms in HF patients, providing a new reference viewpoint for understanding the gut-heart/brain axis.</p>

Project description:Depression is a complex and heterogeneous disorder and a leading contributor to the global burden of of disease. Most previous research has focused on individual brain regions and individual genes that contribute to depression. However, emerging evidence in both humans and animal models suggests that dysregulated circuit function and gene expression across multiple brain regions drive depressive phenotypes. Here we use a bioinformatics approach intersecting differential expression analysis with weighted gene co-expression network analysis to identify transcriptional networks that regulate susceptibility to depressive-like symptoms in mice. We performed RNA-sequencing on multiple brain regions from control animals and those either susceptible or resilient to chronic social defeat stress (CSDS) at multiple time points after defeat. We bioinformatically identified several transcriptional networks that regulate depression susceptibility, and in vivo manipulations of these networks confirmed their functional significance at the levels of gene transcription, synaptic regulation, and behavior. Our findings reveal novel transcriptional networks that control stress susceptibility and offer fundamentally new leads for antidepressant drug discovery.

Project description:Depression is one of the most common neuropsychiatric disorders. Although the pathogenesis of depression is still unknown, environmental risk factors and genetics are implicated. Copper (Cu), a cofactor of multiple enzymes, is involved in regulating depression-related processes. Depressed patients carrying the apolipoprotein ε4 allele display more severe depressive symptoms, indicating that ApoE4 is closely associated with an increased risk of depression. The study explored the effect of low-dose Cu (0.13 ppm) exposure and ApoE4 on depression-like behavior of mice and further investigate the possible mechanisms. The 4-month-old ApoE4 mice and wild-type (WT) mice were treated with 0.13 ppm CuCl2 for 4 months. After the treatment, ApoE4 mice displayed obvious depression-like behavior compared with the WT mice, and Cu exposure further exacerbated the depression-like behavior of ApoE4 mice. There was no significant difference in anxiety behavior (Open field test) and memory behavior (Morris water maze). Proteomic analysis revealed that the differentially expressed proteins between Cu-exposed and non-exposed ApoE4 mice were mainly involved in Ras signaling pathway, protein export, axon guidance, serotonergic synapse, GABAergic synapse, dopaminergic synapse. Among these differentially expressed proteins, immune response and synaptic function are highly correlated. Representative protein expression changes are quantified by Western blot, showing consistent results as determined by proteomic analysis. Hippocampal astrocytes and microglia were increased in Cu-exposed ApoE4 mice, suggesting that neuroglial cells played an important role in the pathogenesis of depression. Taken together, our study demonstrated that Cu exposure exacerbates depression-like behavior of ApoE4 mice and the mechanisms may involve the dysregulation of synaptic function and immune response, and overactivation of neuroinflammation.

Project description:The deficiency of n-3 PUFAs in the brain and depressive symptoms are closely related. Krill oil contains abundant amounts of n-3 PUFAs incorporated in phosphatidylcholine.However, the effect of krill oil treatment on depression-like behaviors induced by chronic stress and its molecular mechanism in the brain remain poorly understood. Here, we used a chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) model to evaluate the effect of krill oil on depression-like behaviors and explored its molecular mechanism through lipid metabolomics and mRNA profiles in the whole brain.

Project description:Expression Profiling of a Genetic Animal Model of Depression Reveals Novel Molecular Pathways Underlying Depressive-like Behaviours In this study we have used genome-wide microarray expression profiling of the hippocampus and prefrontal/frontal cortex of Flinders Depression Sensitive (FSL) and control Flinders Depression Resistant (FRL) lines to understand molecular basis for the differences between the two lines. We profiled two independent cohorts of Flinders animals derived from the same colony six months apart, each cohort statistically powered to allow independent as well as combined analysis. Using this approach, we were able to validate using real-time-PCR a core set of gene expression differences that showed statistical significance in each of the temporally distinct cohorts, representing consistently maintained features of the model. Cohort one was established with 12 FRL and 9 FSL animals, while the second cohort (6 months later) was made up of 10 FRL and 8 FSL animals.

Project description:Several studies have suggested that SSD is a transitory phenomena in the depression spectrum and is thus considered a subtype of depression. However, the pathophysioloy of depression remain largely obscure and studies on SSD are limited. The present study compared the expression profile and made the classification with the leukocytes by using whole-genome cRNA microarrays among drug-free first-episode subjects with SSD, MDD, and healthy controls. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression to develop blood-based gene expression profiles models for classification of subsyndromal symptomatic depression and major depressive disorder

Project description:Depression, or major depressive disorder, poses a significant burden for both individuals and society, affecting approximately 10.8% of the general population. This psychiatric disorder leads to approximately 800,000 deaths per year. A combination of genetic and environmental factors such as early life stress (ELS) increase the risk for development of depression in humans, and a clear role for the hippocampus in the pathophysiology of depression has been shown. Nevertheless, the underlying mechanisms of depression remain poorly understood, resulting in a lack of effective treatments. To better understand the core mechanisms underlying the development of depression, we used a cross-species design to investigate shared hippocampal pathophysiological mechanisms in mouse ELS and human depression. Mice were subjected to ELS by a maternal separation paradigm, followed by RNA sequencing analysis of the adult hippocampal tissue. This identified persistent transcriptional changes linked to mitochondrial stress response pathways, with oxidative phosphorylation and protein folding emerging as the main mechanisms affected by maternal separation. Remarkably, there was a significant overlap between the pathways involved in mitochondrial stress response we observed and publicly available RNAseq data from hippocampal tissue of depressive patients. This cross-species conservation of changes in gene expression of mitochondria-related genes suggests that mitochondrial stress may play a pivotal role in the development of depression. Our findings highlight the potential significance of the hippocampal mitochondrial stress response as a core mechanism underlying the development of depression. Further experimental investigations are required to expand our understanding of these mechanisms
