Popis: Translation of mRNA contributes to neuronal function and complex behaviours, and inflammation is thought to contribute to depression. Here the authors show that mice lacking phosphorylation sites in eIF4E (eukaryotic initiation factor 4E) display anxiety- and depression-like behaviour and decreased IkBα expression; furthermore TNFα delivery to the medial prefrontal cortex induces depression-like behaviour and deficits in serotonergic transmission.
