Journal ArticleDOI

Enhancing neuronal plasticity and cellular resilience to develop novel, improved therapeutics for difficult-to-treat depression.

TL;DR: Preclinical studies have shown that critical molecules in neurotrophic signaling cascades are long-term targets for antidepressant agents and antidepressant potentiating modalities, suggesting that effective treatments provide both trophic and neurochemical support, which serves to enhance and maintain normal synaptic connectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

An open-label trial of riluzole in patients with treatment-resistant major depression.

TL;DR: Results indicate that riluzole may have antidepressant properties in some patients, and these results indicate that the drug may be able to overcome treatment resistance in patients with recurrent major depression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pramipexole for bipolar II depression: a placebo-controlled proof of concept study.

TL;DR: The dopamine agonist pramipexole was found to have significant antidepressant effects in patients with bipolar II depression and showed a significant treatment effect for total Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale scores.
Journal ArticleDOI

Major depressive disorder in DSM-5: Implications for clinical practice and research of changes from DSM-IV

TL;DR: The replacement of an operationalized bereavement exclusion with a call for clinical judgment in distinguishing normal reactions to significant loss from a disorder in need of clinical attention makes the diagnosis less objective and complicates investigations of the relationship between adversity and depression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical phenotypes of perinatal depression and time of symptom onset: analysis of data from an international consortium

TL;DR: The findings show that there might be different types and severity of perinatal depression with varying time of onset throughout pregnancy and post partum, and support the need for tailored treatments that improve outcomes for women with perInatal depression.
