Depression is one of the leading mental health disorders affecting millions of people all over the world. One of the challenges with developing effective treatments for depression is understanding how and why depression occurs in people. Several previous studies have implicated a variety of different mechanisms for depression, including inflammation, abnormal responses to stress, and circuit dysfunction, among others.
