Abstract:
Mood disorders are a common, chronic, severe, complex and costly group of recurrent psychiatric illness that can be devastating for the affected individual and their families. There is a significant clinical need for more effective and better tolerated drug treatments for mood disorders. Although the pathophysiology and neurobiological processes responsible for mood disorders are not fully understood, a greater understanding of the causative underlying mechanisms is gradually emerging. Future advances are expected based on the ability to manipulate and redress the fundamental disease processes and neurobiological dysfunction that underlie these disorders.
