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 ...
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 ...
