[nopdf]Depression Associated with Diabetes: From Pathophysiology to Treatment.-In this respect, this review will focus on some hypotheses that have been proposed to explain the mechanisms underlying depression associated with diabetes, highlighting the treatment options currently available and their limitations. Among these hypotheses, we will point out the hyperglycemia as a primary metabolic cause of the depression development, the involvement of the dysregulation of hypothalamic pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and of neurotransmitter systems, specially monoaminergic system. Besides, the role of oxidative stress, neuroinflammation and cell death, especially in hippocampus and prefrontal cortex, brain areas important for the mediation and modulation of emotional behavior will also be discussed. Finally, we will bring up the influence of the epigenetic regulation with respect to neuropsychiatric disorders.
