Japanese scientists have created a new molecule - PA-915, which is considered effective against depression and stress. When it is introduced into the body, it can completely block the PAC1 stress receptor, eliminate anxiety and depression, as well as erase negative traces left in memory.
Scientists say that the effect of the molecule lasts up to two months. The experiments conducted so far were conducted on mice subjected to chronic stress, and a positive result was recorded.
Currently, preparatory work is underway to test the drug on humans. Experts emphasize that this drug could be an important step in treating depression in the future.
For reference: stress is a temporary physiological and psychological response of the body to an external challenge. Depression is accompanied by a prolonged feeling of sadness, loss of interest in life, and various functional disorders. It requires prolonged treatment.
