“…Moreover, besides high O 2 consumption, the brain is highly vulnerable to oxidative damage due to its modest antioxidant defense and a high concentration of highly oxidizable substrate, e.g., lipids. There are some experimental data suggesting that specific changes in these two factors in the brain are leading to an increase of ROS concentration in major depression (49). This is further supported by our finding that CMS-susceptible rats did not show the changes in glutathione concentration in spite of elevated lipid peroxidation.…”

“…Accordingly, it has been shown that exposure to repeated and unpredictable stressors increases ROS production in the rat brain (21,47,48,68), which, in turn, results in oxidative damage in the central nervous system. Moreover, studies investigating the oxidative stress profile found a reduction in antioxidant enzymes and elevation of the products of lipid peroxidation in the blood of patients with major depression (5,44,49,56). We have tested an association between oxidative stress and CMS susceptibility by estimating the total concentration of the major antioxidant, glutathione, and a general product of peroxidation of membrane polyunsaturated fatty acids by ROS and MDA.…”

“…Depression is also associated with increased plasma levels of peroxides and xanthine oxidase (Herken et al, 2007, Maes et al, 2010. The efficacy of antioxidant therapies for depression is unknown, although N-acetylcysteine, a powerful antioxidant, was found to be useful for depressive episodes in bipolar disorder (Berk et al, 2008, Magalhaes et al, 2011 and zinc, which serves as a strong antioxidant, also has antidepressant activity (Szewczyk et al, 2011).…”

“…9,10) Lipid peroxidation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various diseases, such as coronary heart disease, atherosclerosis, and cancer, as well as the ageing process. [11][12][13][14] Morin has been suggested as an inhibitor of lipid peroxidation. However, the absolute bioavailability of morin after a single oral dose is very low (less than 1%), likely because of its low aqueous solubility, P-glycoprotein (P-gp)-mediated efflux, and low intestinal permeability.…”
