Summary

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a significant cause of disability that affects approximately 16% of the world's population and is associated with chronic inflammation. Although the mechanisms of MDD have not yet been clearly elucidated, NLRP3 inflammasomes have been implicated in the pathogenesis of depression.NLRP3 inflammasome is an intracellular multiprotein complex that consists of nod-like receptor protein 3, an adaptor protein, and a procaspase-1 precursor. It is well known that a variety of danger signals, such as pathogen-associated molecular patterns and danger-associated molecular patterns can activate NLRP3 inflammasome

Conditions

  • Depressive Disorder

Interventions

DRUG

Fluoxetine 20 mg

Fluoxetine is a type of antidepressant known as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). It's often used to treat depression, and sometimes obsessive-compulsive disorder and bulimia. It works by increasing the levels of serotonin in the brain

DRUG

Dapagliflozin 10mg Tab

Dapagliflozin (DAPA), a sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2-I), has proven to be an effective hyperglycemic suppressor due to its role in inhibiting the reabsorption of 30-50% of the glucose filtered by the kidney, besides its role in the improvement of insulin resistance

DRUG

Atorvastatin 80mg

Atorvastatin is a synthetic and lipophilic statin, a class of drugs used in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia
