Galanin and neuropeptide Y interactions elicit antidepressant activity linked to neuronal precursor cells of the dentate gyrus in the ventral hippocampus

Abstract: A need for new antidepressants is necessary since traditional antidepressants have several flaws. Neuropeptide Y(NPY) Y1 receptor (NPYY1R) and galanin (GAL) receptor 2 (GALR2) interact in several regions of the limbic system, including the hippocampus. The current study assesses the antidepressant effects induced by GALR2 and NPYY1R coactivation, together with the evaluation of cell proliferation through 5‐Bromo‐2'‐deoxyuridine expression within the dentate gyrus of the ventral hippocampus (vDG). We employed i… Show more

“…Verification of GALR2 contribution was also established while the GALR2 antagonist M871 blocked the boosted response observed, as previously described ( Narvaez et al, 2015 ; Narvaez et al, 2016 ; Narvaez et al, 2018 ; Borroto-Escuela et al, 2021 ). Furthermore, neither M1145 and Y1R agonist nor their coadministration has shown locomotor alterations; thus, behavioural effects detected were independent of the motor actions, as described ( Narvaez et al, 2015 ; Narvaez et al, 2016 ; Narvaez et al, 2018 ).…”

“…Interestingly, enhanced spatial learning in ageing rodents was recently demonstrated by genetically boosting neurogenesis in the dorsal hippocampal DG ( Berdugo-Vega et al, 2020 ). With this approach, we observed the ability of the co-agonist treatment to enhance the cell proliferation in the DG of the dorsal hippocampus throughout 5-Bromo-2′-deoxyuridine (BrdU) expression analysis at 24 h. We have recently detected a rise of cell proliferation in the ventral hippocampus observed through BrdU analysis linked to antidepressant-like events ( Borroto-Escuela et al, 2021 ). In agreement, the molecule P7C3, known to have neuroprotective actions, increased the neuronal cell proliferation associated with improved spatial learning and memory effects in neurodegenerative rodent models ( Jiang et al, 2016 ; Loris et al, 2017 ).…”
