Major Depressive Disorder

Information about Major Depressive Disorder: characteristics, related genes and pathways, plus antibodies you can use for research. This page is being enriched constantly, if you see some information you would like this page to include please send your suggestions to us.

Overview of Major Depressive Disorder

Most recent studies have shown that Major Depressive Disorder shares some biological mechanisms with anxiety-disorders, bipolar-disorder, cancer-patients-and-suicide-and-depression, cognition-disorders, depressive-disorder, depressive-symptom, dysthymic-disorder, manic, mental-disorders, mood-disorders, pain, panic-disorder, personality-disorders, post-traumatic-stress-disorder, psychotic-disorders, schizophrenia, stress-psychological, substance-related-disorders.

Among the many pathways, these few ones have gauged particular interests from scientists studying Major Depressive Disorder, and have been seen in publications frequently: Aging, Circadian Rhythm, Cognition, Cortisol Secretion, Excretion, Inflammatory Response, Localization, Menopause, Neurogenesis, Pathogenesis, Response To Antidepressant, Response To Fluoxetine, Response To Stress, Rumination, Secretion, Sensitization, Serotonin Uptake, Swimming, Translation, Transport

Quite a number of genes have been found to play important roles in Major Depressive Disorder, such as BDNF, COMT, CRH, CSF2, DST, GAD1, GATA3, HPSE, HTR1A, IL6, LAMC2, NR3C1, OPN1SW, POMC, PRL, SLC6A4, TNF, TRH. See what Boster has to offer for the research of these genes by clicking the gene name links below and view a more detailed info card/product listing for that gene.

In a later update, we will include information such as current drugs and therapy solutions as well as on-going and past clinical trials for this disease. Plesae stay updated.
