Testosterone imbalance may link depression and increased body weight in premenopausal women

Accumulating evidence supports a link between depression and being overweight in women. Given previously reported sex differences in fat accumulation and depression prevalence, as well as the likely role of sex hormones in both overweight and mood disorders, we hypothesised that the depression-overweight association may be mediated by sex hormones. To this end, we investigated the association of being overweight with depression, and then considered the role of sex hormones in relation to being overweight and depression in a large population-based cohort. We included a total of 3124 women, 970 premenopausal and 2154 postmenopausal from the LIFE-Adult cohort study in our analyses. We evaluated associations between being overweight (BMI >25 kg/m 2 ), sex hormone levels, and depressive symptomatology according to Centre for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CES-D) scores, and explored mediation of depression in a mediation model. Being overweight was significantly associated with depressive symptoms in premenopausal but not postmenopausal women. Both premenopausal and postmenopausal overweight women had higher free testosterone levels compared with normal weight women. Premenopausal women with depressive symptomatology had higher free testosterone levels compared to women without. We found a significant mediation effect of depressive symptomatology in overweight premenopausal women through free testosterone level. These findings highlight the association between being overweight and depressed, and suggest that high free testosterone levels may play a significant role in depression of overweight premenopausal women. Based on this, pharmacological approaches targeting androgen levels in overweight depressed females, in particular when standard anti-depressive treatments fail, could be of specific clinical relevance.

“…Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches patients to recognize, prove, and modify their biased perception and processing in that that control of negative feelings increases, and they will be able to cope better with the demands of daily life [109]. Another behavior therapy that is specifically designed for patients with chronic depressive disorders is CBASP (cognitive behavioral analysis system of psychotherapy).…”

Multistage drug effects of ketamine in the treatment of major depression

A substantial number of patients diagnosed with major depression disorder show poor or no response to standard antidepressive drugs. Recent studies showed that ketamine promotes a rapid and sustained antidepressive effect in treatment-resistant depression. Importantly, after a single dose, such antidepressant action appears very fast, reaching maximum efficacy after 1-2 days before it slowly decays after 3-7 days. This temporal pattern is especially interesting since most effects are investigated following single, subanesthetic doses. This means that effects are observed at time points when the blood levels have long fallen below any active threshold. Mechanisms of action thus may be sought either in secondary or compensatory processes, which develop after acute systemic derangement or in molecular downstream mechanisms of action, which after initiation do not require the presence of active drug levels. We here review acute and delayed effects of subanesthetic ketamine infusion and discuss potential origins of antidepressant drug action. We will provide evidences that both acute effects on abnormal network configuration and delayed effects at the level of homeostatic synaptic plasticity may be necessary for antidepressant action. We further argue that such effects should be followed by a temporally well-defined exploitation of these transient changes by therapeutic processes, aiming at sustained changes of network configuration via psychotherapeutic or other methods.
