GLP-1 receptor agonists have a sustained stimulatory effect on corticosterone release after chronic treatment
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2015)
Objective: Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are a new
group of antidiabetic medications quickly gaining popularity. We aimed to
examine behavioural and neuroendocrine changes following chronic
treatment ...
Isolation-induced behavioural changes in a genetic animal model of depression
(Elsevier, 2012)
Depression is a heterogeneous disorder displaying a range of symptoms including feelings of despair and social withdrawal. Social isolation may complicate the progression of depression and have effects on both behaviour ...
Maternal high-fat diet programs offspring emotional behavior in adulthood
(Elsevier, 2018)
Prenatal exposure to high-fat diet (HFD) might predispose offspring to develop metabolic and mental disorders later in life. Insight into the molecular and behavioral consequences of maternal HFD on offspring is sparse but ...
A high-fat diet exacerbates depressive-like behavior in the Flinders Sensitive Line (FSL) rat, a genetic model of depression
(Elsevier, 2011)
Major depressive disorder (MDD) and diabetes mellitus type II (T2DM) are two of the major health challenges of our time. It has been shown that MDD and T2DM are highly co-morbid, and recent work has proposed a bi-directional ...
Probiotic treatment reduces depressive-like behaviour in rats independently of diet
(Elsevier, 2017)
The gut microbiota has recently emerged as an important regulator of brain physiology and behaviour in animals, and ingestion of certain bacteria (probiotics) therefore appear to be a potential treatment for major depressive ...
Probiotic treatment protects against the pro-depressant-like effect of high-fat diet in Flinders Sensitive Line rats
(Elsevier, 2017)
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is highly associated with dysmetabolic conditions, such as obesity and diabetes mellitus type 2, and the gut microbiota may interact with both disease entities. We have previously shown that ...
The microbial metabolite indole-3-propionic acid improves glucose metabolism in rats, but does not affect behaviour
(Taylor & Francis, 2018)
Context: We have previously shown that an antidepressant-like effect of probiotics in rats was associated with a higher plasma level of the microbial tryptophan metabolite indole-3-propionic acid (IPA).
Objective: We ...
