What affects NT-3

Posted by linkadge on July 9, 2005, at 2:27:13

Injections of the growth factor NT-3 produced antidepressant effects similar to injections of BDNF. Does anyone know any drugs that affect the actions of NT-3 ?

Thanks

I think there is an interaction between NT-3 and the AMPA receptors. AMPA receptor modulators also augment antidepressants in animal models.

Aniracetam affects ampa receptors, does it? It's marketed as Ampamet.

interesting. Ampa has something to do with glutamate, but thats the extent of my knowledge on that.
