Abstrakt: The novel antidepressant arketamine, the (R)-enantiomer of ketamine, has been shown to ameliorate demyelination and facilitate remyelination in the brains of cuprizone (CPZ)-treated mice. However, the mechanisms behind its effects remain unclear. Given the role of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) in arketamine's antidepressant-like effects, we examined whether TGF-β1 also plays a role in arketamine's effects on demyelination and remyelination in CPZ-treated mice. Additionally, we investigated the effects of intranasal TGF-β1 on demyelination and remyelination in these mice. Repeated intermittent administration of arketamine (10 mg/kg/day, twice weekly for the last 2-weeks) attenuated demyelination in the corpus callosum (CC) of CPZ (6 weeks)-treated mice. Furthermore, pretreatment with RepSox (10 mg/kg/day), an inhibitor of the TGF-β receptor 1, significantly blocked the beneficial effects of arketamine on the demyelination in the CC of CPZ-treated mice. Additionally, repeated intermittent administration of TGF-β1 (3.0 μg/kg/day, twice weekly for 2 weeks) significantly ameliorated demyelination and facilitated remyelination in the CC of CPZ-treated mice. These data suggest that arketamine can mitigate demyelination and facilitates remyelination in the brains of CPZ-treated mice through a TGF-β1-dependent mechanism.
