Abstract
Our study supports the hypothesis that drugs with antagonistic properties on the NMDA receptor, such as memantine, might be efficient in treatment of major depression. Our results also suggest that upregulated mRNA levels of BDNF and TrkB in the brain might be essential for antidepressant-like activity of memantine in stress exposed rats.
