Link! Interesting, I did not know all that!
>> There is the "receptor site" downregulation hypothesis, which states that mood improvement only occurs after downregulation of postsynaptic serotonin and norepinephrine receptors. >>
I'd heard this. Is this along the lines of the "brain-growin'" hypotheses I guess? (Neurotrophy is the big word for it?)
>> The changes in receptor sites might correlate to changes in NMDA receptor function.>>
How do they correlate? What is it that changes about NDMA receptors? This last part is totally new to me.- Chris
