Background: People with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) are far more likely to suffer from Early Life Stress (ELS) than the average population. This typically increases severity of symptoms, and often leads to treatment resistance. This study set out to examine which treatments work best to treat depression in patients who have suffered from ELS, as well as possible interactions between ELS and antidepressant effects in therapies.

Background: The optimal antidepressant dosages remain controversial. This study aimed to analyze the efficacy of antidepressants and characterize their dose-response relationships in the treatments of major depressive disorders (MDD).
Methods: We searched multiple databases, including the Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, PubMed, and Web of Science, for the studies that were conducted between January 8, 2016, and April 30, 2023.

Background: Antidepressants are widely used to manage depression and other psychiatric diseases. A previous study revealed that hepatotoxicity was the main adverse event related to antidepressants. Therefore, drug-induced liver injury (DILI) caused by antidepressants deserves more attention.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is accompanied by behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), which is often alleviated by treatment with psychotropic drugs, such as antidepressants, hypnotics, and anxiolytics. If these drugs also inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity, they may contribute to the suppression of AD progression by increasing brain acetylcholine concentrations. We tested the potential inhibitory effects of 31 antidepressants, 21 hypnotics, and 12 anxiolytics on recombinant human AChE (rhAChE) activity.

Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is one of the most common causes of a drug being withdrawn, and identifying the culprit drugs and the host factors at risk of causing DILI has become a current challenge. Recent studies have found that immune status plays a considerable role in the development of DILI. In this study, DILI-related differentially expressed genes mediated by immunoinflammatory cytokines were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to predict the occurrence of DILI (named the DILI predictive gene set, DILI_PGS), and the predictability of the DILI_PGS was verified using the Connectivity Map (CMap) and LiverTox platforms.
