BACKGROUND: Increased blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability is implicated in the pathophysiology of major depressive disorder (MDD). While aerobic exercise has shown promise in mitigating MDD symptoms by potentially preserving BBB integrity, the detailed mechanisms remain unclear. This study explores these mechanisms to assess aerobic exercise's therapeutic potential for MDD.
METHODS: Male C57BL/6 J mice were used in this study to investigate the effects of aerobic exercise on CUS-induced BBB permeability and depressive-like behaviors. Chronic unpredictable stress (CUS)-induced MDD mouse models were divided into three groups: Control, CUS, and CUS+Exercise. We monitored body weight, blood S100β levels, and cytokines via ELISA. Claudin-5 and Caveolin-1 (CAV-1) expressions in the medial prefrontal cortex were evaluated using Western blotting and immunofluorescence. BBB permeability was assessed using biocytin-TMR and Alb-Alexa 594 tracers. Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe ultrastructural changes in the BBB directly. Depression-related behaviors were tested through several behavioral assays.
RESULTS: CUS significantly increased CAV-1 expression and Alb-Alexa 594 leakage, suggesting enhanced transcellular BBB permeability. Despite unchanged Claudin-5 levels, its tight junction ultrastructure was altered, leading to increased biocytin-TMR leakage. Aerobic exercise ameliorated these disruptions, reduced inflammatory cytokines, and improved behavioral outcomes in CUS mice.
CONCLUSION: Disruptions in both paracellular and transcellular BBB pathways are pivotal in depression development. Aerobic exercise offers potential therapeutic benefits for MDD linked with BBB dysfunction by mitigating stress-induced structural and functional changes.
