Mitochondrial Protein TAMM41 Modulates Depressive-like Behaviors.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Several lines of evidence have highlighted the crucial role of mitochondria-based therapy in depression. However, there are still less mitochondrial targets for the depression treatment. TAM41 mitochondrial translocator assembly and maintenance homolog (TAMM41) is a mitochondrial inner membrane protein for maintaining mitochondrial function, which is tightly related to many brain diseases including Alzheimer's diseases and epilepsy. Here, we investigated whether TAMM41 would be a potential target to treat depression. We found that the expression of TAMM41 was markedly lower in corticosterone-induced depression, lipopolysaccharide-induced depression, and depressed patients. Meanwhile, loss of TAMM41 resulted in increased immobility in the forced swim test (FST), tail suspension test (TST), and center time in open field test (OFT), suggesting depressive-like behaviors in mice. Moreover, genetic overexpression of TAMM41 obviously exerted antidepressant-like activities. Mechanistically, proteomics revealed that pacsin1 might be the underlying target of TAMM41. Further data supported that TAMM41 regulated the expression of pacsin1, and its antidepressant-like effect at least partially was attributed to pacsin1. In addition, exosomes containing TAMM41 was sufficient to exhibit antidepressant-like effect, suggesting an alternative strategy to exert the effect of TAMM41. Taken together, the present study demonstrates the antidepressant-like effect of TAMM41 and sheds light on its molecular mechanism. These finding provide new insights into a therapeutic strategy targeting mitochondria in the development of novel antidepressants.
