摘要

Objective: Vascular endothelial growth factor A is a growth factor with pro-angiogenic and neurotrophic properties. Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor A treatments, used to treat cancers and opthalmic diseases, are known to induce depressive symptoms. Thus, we hypothesized that vascular endothelial growth factor A plasma levels are low in patients experiencing a major depressive episode in the context of major depressive disorder, which consequently increase after antidepressant treatment. The aim of this study was to compare plasma vascular endothelial growth factor A levels in patients with major depressive episode-major depressive disorder before and after antidepressant treatment. Methods: Vascular endothelial growth factor A fasting plasma levels of 469 major depressive episode-major depressive disorder patients were compared with healthy controls. Depressed patients were assessed for remission after 3 and 6 months of antidepressant treatment. Bivariate and multivariate analyses adjusted for sex, age, body mass index and tobacco use were performed. Results: As compared to healthy controls, major depressive episode patients had lower vascular endothelial growth factor A, 66.0 (38.3) pg/mL (standard deviation) vs 83.2 (49.2) pg/mL, p < 0.0001. Plasma vascular endothelial growth factor A levels did not change after antidepressant treatment, even in remitters, and remained lower than those of healthy controls, 64.9 (39.3) pg/mL vs 83.2 (49.2) pg/mL, p < 0.0001. Conclusion: Depressed patients with major depressive disorder have lower plasma vascular endothelial growth factor A levels than healthy controls during their major depressive episode and after remission following antidepressant treatment. New strategies targeting enhancement of plasma vascular endothelial growth factor A could be promising for the prevention and treatment of major depressive disorder.
