Abstinence from repeated amphetamine treatment induces depressive-like behaviors and oxidative damage in rat brain

TL;DR: It is suggested that amphetamine abstinence displays depressive-like behaviors in rats and induces oxidative damage to lipids and RNA in rat brain and the process of oxidative stress may play a role in pathophysiological changes during drug abstinence from repeated amphetamine stimulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alterations in phosphorylated cAMP response element-binding protein (pCREB) signaling: an endophenotype of lithium-responsive bipolar disorder?

TL;DR: Abnormalities of signal transduction are considered among the susceptibility factors for bipolar disorder (BD) and changes in G‐protein‐mediated signaling and subsequent modification of gene expression via transcription factors such as cAMP response element‐binding protein (CREB).
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA redox modulations and global DNA methylation in bipolar disorder: Effects of sex, smoking and illness state.

TL;DR: Investigating DNA redox modulation and global DNA methylation and demethylation levels in patients with BD during euthymia, mania or depression in comparison to non-psychiatric controls suggests that levels of 8-OHdG may be affected by sex, illness states and smoking in BD.
