“A 5‐week period of treatment with antidepressants significantly reduced the serum levels of aspartate, glutamate and taurine , and significantly increased the serum concentrations of glutamine.”
“The results suggest that alterations in serum levels of aspartate, asparagine, serine, threonine and taurine may predict the subsequent response to treatment with antidepressants , and that the latter may modulate serum levels of excitatory amino acids and taurine.”
