抑郁障碍是现代人类致残和死亡的一个常见原因,部分患者对现有的抗抑郁障碍药物并不敏感,复发率极高.现有的抗抑郁障碍药物存在许多问题,迫切需要找到一种针对多个靶点的新型抗抑郁药.近年来的研究发现,可溶性N-乙基马来酰亚胺敏感因子附着蛋白受体(soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor,SNARE)复合体与抑郁障碍发生及进展密切相关.该文总结和归纳了胶质细胞内SNARE复合体在抑郁障碍发生过程中的潜在作用机制,并对相关研究进行综述,以期为临床上开发新型的抗抑郁障碍药物提供新的思路.
Functions of SNARE complex in glial cells and its relationship with the development of depressive disorder
Depression is a common cause of human disability and death.Some patients are not sensitive to antidepressants,and also the recurrence rate is very high.Unfortunately,there are many problems with existing antidepressants.So,it is urgent to find a new antidepressant aiming at multiple targets.Recently,researchers have found that soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor(SNARE)complex is closely related to the progression of depression.This review discusses the potential mechanisms of the SNARE complex in glial cells,and hopes to contribute to the understanding of depression and provide new ideas for clinical development of novel antidepressant drugs.
