o18: role of adult hippocampal neurogenesis in anxiety disorders
نویسندگان
چکیده
neurogenesis occurs throughout life in several regions of the brain. in this lecture, a new sight for the role of the dentate gyrus and adult hippocampal neurogenesis in anxiety disorders will be discussed. the region that has obtained the most attention for its involvement in the neurogenesis of affective and anxiety disorders are the hippocampal and dentate gyrus. evidence strongly suggests that adult-generated hippocampal neurons are involved in the hippocampal circuitry via projections in the mossy fiber pathway, and contribute to hippocampal functions relevant to the mood and memory functions. based on these initial observations, adult hippocampal neurogenesis has been shown to be required for some, but not all, of the behavioral effects of anti-depressants. it has been reported that chronic anti-depressant treatment increased subgranular zone proliferation and neurogenesis. regard to this background, this finding generalized to different classes of anti-depressants pharmacotherapeutics. however, one important remaining question is whether increasing levels of adult hippocampal neurogenesis is sufficient for anti-depressant-like effects on behavior. in a recent study, it has been shown that neural stem cells in the adult mammalian brain provide a resource that may be harnessed to treat various disorders. on the other hand, it has been proposed the development of new pro-neurogenic compounds may therefore have therapeutic potential for patients who display pattern separation deficits, such as post-traumatic stress and panic disorders. in conclusion, novel strategy to treat anxiety disorders may be achieved by enhancement of adult hippocampal neurogenesis.

متن کاملAdult Hippocampal Neurogenesis and Memory
Adult neurogenesis, a concept emergent in the late 1990s, is the generation of new neurons in the adult brain. This process occurs thank to cells who have this proliferative feature, named as Neural Stem Cells (NSCs). Neural Stem Cells (NSCs) are primary progenitors who can generate the two neural types (neurons and glia). Classically it was assumed that NSCs are only present in the embryo, but...

متن کاملP 67: The Role of Neuroinflammation in Dysfunction of Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis
Neuroinflammation as a protective mechanism for repairing tissue damage in the central nervous system (CNS), has been classified into two types: acute and chronic. It is characterized by the activation of microglia and astrocytes and the increase levels of different chemokines and cytokines. Neuroinflammation can be harmful, and it is a common pathological feature in neurodegenerative and psych...
متن کاملRole Of Hippocampal Neurogenesis In The Etiology And Treatment Of Mood & Anxiety Disorders
Mood disorders are associated with deficits in hippocampal size and function. Neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus has been implicated in the behavioral efficacy of some antidepressants. However, the precise function of newborn hippocampal neurons in the etiology and treatment of mood disorders remains unclear. Anxiety, which is highly comorbid with mood disorders, also appears ...
