摘要
Escitalopram and vortioxetine are efficacious antidepressants. They directly target serotonin (5-HT) system, but vortioxetine mechanism of action is distinct from the one of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Treatment with SSRIs decrease platelet 5-HT concentration and increase peripheral brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) levels. Since vortioxetine has a multimodal mechanism of action, it is expected to have a greater effect on circulatory BDNF concentration, compared to conventional antidepressants. This longitudinal study aimed to explore and compare the effects of 4-weeks of treatment with vortioxetine and escitalopram on plasma BDNF and platelet 5-HT concentration in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). The results revealed that vortioxetine significantly increased plasma BDNF concentration (p = .018) and significantly decreased platelet 5-HT concentration (p < .001). Treatment with escitalopram significantly decreased platelet 5-HT concentration (p < .001), but it did not affect plasma BDNF concentration (p = .379). Response to vortioxetine was not predicted by baseline plasma BDNF or platelet 5-HT concentration, but response to escitalopram was predicted by baseline platelet 5-HT concentration. These effects might be due to vortioxetine unique mechanism of action, but the clinical implications are unclear. It remains to be determined whether this finding extends during long-term vortioxetine treatment, and which, if any, clinical effects emerge from BDNF increase.
