Activation of the TrkB neurotrophin receptor is induced by antidepressant drugs and is required for antidepressant-induced behavioral effects
Recent studies have indicated that exogenously administered neurotrophins produce
antidepressant-like behavioral effects. We have here investigated the role of endogenous brain-…

The antidepressant fluoxetine restores plasticity in the adult visual cortex
We investigated whether fluoxetine, a widely prescribed medication for treatment of depression,
restores neuronal plasticity in the adult visual system of the rat. We found that chronic …
