1 OBJECTIVE: We investigated the effects of chronic treatment with agomelatine (an MT(1)/MT(2) receptor agonist and 5-HT(2C) receptor antagonist) on the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2), and activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated protein (Arc). agomelatine brain derived neurotrophic factor Homo sapiens
2 OBJECTIVE: We investigated the effects of chronic treatment with agomelatine (an MT(1)/MT(2) receptor agonist and 5-HT(2C) receptor antagonist) on the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2), and activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated protein (Arc). agomelatine brain derived neurotrophic factor Homo sapiens
3 RESULTS: Agomelatine, but not venlafaxine, produced major transcriptional changes in the hippocampus, where significant up-regulations of BDNF and FGF-2 were observed. agomelatine brain derived neurotrophic factor Homo sapiens
4 RESULTS: Agomelatine, but not venlafaxine, produced major transcriptional changes in the hippocampus, where significant up-regulations of BDNF and FGF-2 were observed. agomelatine fibroblast growth factor 2 Homo sapiens
