The mTORC1-dependent dendritic spines formation represents a key mechanism for fast and long-lasting antidepressant responses, but it remains to be determined whether this mechanism may account for the ability of guanosine in potentiating ketamine's actions. Here, we investigated the ability of ketamine plus guanosine to elicit fast and sustained antidepressant-like and pro-synaptogenic effects...
Ketamine enhances the resilience against stress-induced depressive-like behavior, but its prophylactic efficacy in anxiety-related behaviors remains to be elucidated. Moreover, there is a need for developing novel preventive strategies against depressive- and anxiety-like behavior. AZD6765, a low-trapping NMDA receptor antagonist, shares with ketamine common molecular targets and produces...
