Evidence for increased expression of the vesicular glutamate transporter, VGLUT1, by a course of antidepressant treatment.
The therapeutic effect of a course of antidepressant treatment is believed to involve a cascade of neuroadaptive changes in gene expression leading to increased neural plasticity. Because glutamate is linked to mechanisms of neural plasticity, this transmitter may play a role in these changes. This...
