Studying Depression at a Molecular Level
Psychiatric Times
How do defective neuro-glia interactions contribute to depression? A recent study suggests that alterations in astrocyte metabolism is a major hallmark of depression. In this Mental Health Minute, Michal Slezak, PhD, explains how he and other researchers used state-of-the-art imaging techniques and genetic approaches to identify molecular processes impaired in depression.
