Pre-clinical evidence of NOS2 involvement in animal models of MDD

Pre-clinical evidence Reference
NOS2 inhibitors augment the efficacy of serotonin reuptake inhibitors in the forced swim test. [169]
NOS2 is increased in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex following stress. [38]
NOS2 inhibition results in antidepressant-like effects in rodents. [219]
The dopamine reuptake inhibitor bupropion modulates the NO system. [220]
